He was one of their best players that year, we got him cheap in a good bit of business when they were relegated. By no means was he terrible in a very poor side, in fact stood out in a positive way.
If he is on loan it means nobody will buy him and pay him his wages so he wont move, its then a loan with Man City paying some of his wages. Just depends on what we can negotiate then; see what the loan fee is if any and what we pay. Free ups...
One I would actually go for on a season loan but of course down to wages. I just cannot see Patterson being our first choice RB had plenty of mgrs look at him and even with injuries none rated him enough to give him starts when no other RB...
If he re-signs it will show the club has learnt nothing, more money to a player sat in the treatment room constantly...
Time to move on from DCL.... been a good signing for £1.6m.
