Sky Sports have the Blades interested in him 5'9" but that could mean tricky and quick.
Nice to see the Blades showing interest in a number of young players.

Sounds just like Miller...

I like the fact we're scouring the lower leagues. A few neutrals at work have commented that with Kitson, Higgo and Murphy we seem to be quite an attractive club to come to

Don't know much about this lad but that Sky Sports report is very positive!

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

The lad is a winger, decent shot on him. Highlights seem to indicate he's left footed.

From a Walsall forum:

Probably absolute garbage, but if it's true. YES! He's crud and we'll get cash for him. 1 of if not the biggest rival alongside Richard Taundry as our most frustrating, annoying and down-right crud players.

The opinion on the same forum was that Westlake wouldn't be missed...they were probably right about that.

 

[Bergen Blade]

Another view:

Would be very disappointed if he was sold - the lad is one of the most skilful players in the squad and whilst he still needs a lot of maturing he has the potentials to be one hell of a footballer and this season he is also scoring goals which is an added bonus.

And:

Within 3 years, i believe Paterson will be playing In the Premier. He is still learning parts of the game but there is no doubting his natural talent. I hear fans moaning when he gives ball away with the odd back flick or shooting high over the bar when he has no right to shoot. I'd never change that about him, it's that kind of belief that top players need. Will be gone soon, end of the season for sure if not this month.

Not every signing like this will come off, but I like that we're looking for potential and players with pace and individual skill.

Cant help but feel I must have missed this thread, but cant see it. Footy rumours on Twitter sasys we have bid £750,000 and Notts Forest have bid £500,00.

 

[Torrix1889]

Rubbish! We couldn't afford £75

Yeah a £1 up front then £749,999 when he captains us at Wembley in an F A cup final.

Boro are after him as well so file this away in the 'not a prayer' cabinet.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

who the hell starts these rumours with a straight face?

Everybody and their uncle knows we're totally on our arse, yet they link us with a £750k transfer fee?

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

Maybe it's another one of those where we bid for players we know won't sign for us. Keeps the more gullible fans happy i suppose. Or maybe it's just a load of bullshit.
