Nothing to get excited about. He looked class earlier on at Leicester but seemed to fall off in the last few years. Would take him just because he's an actual RB who has played at Premier League level and isn't injured every two weeks.

Had an article from paddy boyland saying right back was no longer a priority and they’re happy to go with what they’ve got there.

Now we’re looking at paying £6m for James Justin.

They haven’t got a clue what they’re doing.

Dunno whether he's seen Patterson recently and got a bit spooked.

James Justin would be solid but not spectacular.

I'd be game. Still think we do need a right back and we where willing to get Tete.

If we don't its not the biggest disaster, JOB can play there if needs be.

Would probably take him at this point to be fair but would worry about him having done his ACL and Achilles.

A solid boring RB are what dreams are made of right now.

Good player before the injuries.

I remember when he chose Leicester instead of us I was a bit miffed.

It was probably the alliteration name thing that caught my eye, as usual.

I think that all scans though doesn't it?

Seems to me they have hit panic stations and have moved onto the secondary (or tertiary) targets.
Coupled with how Patterson has performed in America, I don't see anything incongruous with this change of direction

We did also try to sign a right back at the start of the window, so its not completely out of the blue.

Yeah doesn't need to be amazing, just someone reliable for a year who could drop to backup next season when we sign someone better.

At £6m as well it'd be a drop in the ocean so wouldn't take away much from landing our desperately needed CM and RW.

James Justin + Aznou + Travers for a combined £21m is good squad building for minimal outlay.

Spend another combined £60m roughly on Dibbling and KDH, get 3 loan players in at the end of the window and we're in a much much better situation.

Fine with it. He’s capable of playing premier league football, Patterson isn’t
