Possibly but I don't get why we want our stars to play every game; unless you are Calum McGregor, the more you play the more risk of injury.

He can say whatever he wants but no club is buying a 19 year old who has barely played for rangers for crazy money. If gerrard wants a decent fee for Patterson then he will have to actually play the lad. If gerrard plays Patterson between now and the end of the season then he could maybe fetch 10m plus depending on good performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavernier is not only more experienced but is the club captain. Look at the Chelseas and Man Cities - they cannot play all their galacticos at once. Patterson will likely play in League cup ties and Scottish cups and the odd league game; he is not going to risk him in do or die Euro games. And the Everton bid is a joke. I read that Liverpool are interested; oh really, well what happens to TAA? Yes they are, if Patterson is worth a fortune like say 10m or more then he would be getting gametime, he's played 1 game so far this season against a dunfermline, championship team. If Patterson is the superstar gerrard thinks he is then he would be playing him in games, even if its just minutes off the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said last season he is not getting first team football whilst Tavernier is there. It isn't rocket science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres games against spl dross where they could either rest Tavernier or play him right wing and they would still win easily. Rangers probably play nearly 70 games a season. If Patterson can't get a game for a team who play that many games, many of which are against rubbish sides then he should move elsewhere. If gerrard really thinks Patterson is worth more than 5m then he will play him lots between now and Xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be saying pay me more and play me if that’s my value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he's fit I'd start selecting him for Scotland ahead of SOD, regardless of whether or not he plays each week - he's already proved he's good enough.

I haven't written him off, I just think gerrard is contradicting himself when he talks of the Patterson bid being a joke when he won't even play the lad.

If he is sold to Everton, I see no reason he couldn't grab the RB spot quickly. He is good enough IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I do not think he will move, and its more a case of Rangers are hoping to get a Tierney level offer (which I suspect they are using as the bench mark) for him for a player they have no real need for the next 2/3 seasons given Taverniers age.

Rangers aren’t hoping to get £25M. in today’s market £5M isn’t enough for Patterson, so they will hold out for about £10M. Everyone can see he should be playing at present but Gerrard needs to now accept that and fit him in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Rangers have to been to be holding out for £10m+ based on some of the transfers Celtic have received in recent years, and more so to avoid another Gilmour slipping through their hands again. truth is, I think they will view this as easy money for a player they have no need for another 2/3 years, and if holding out for £10m, suspect they are looking for closer to £7m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
