Nathan Patterson admits his emotional Rangers exit weighed on his mind before sealing his move to Everton. But he insists he's never had "second thoughts" as he begins to establish himself under Frank Lampard at Goodison Park.
Scotland defender Patterson had a topsy-turvy start to life on Merseyside with a serious injury thwarting his development, while Seamus Coleman and even Jonjoe Kenny were initially ahead of him in the pecking order. He's returned from the summer break with a bang, though, playing 90 minutes of both of Everton 's Premier League games this season and making himself first-choice.
His £15m switch from Rangers finally appears to be paying off but Patterson insists that even when he was struggling last season, he never doubted his decision to take the leap. And while it was "difficult" to leave Ibrox after spending his whole career there, the 20-year-old says he's thriving now he's had time to adjust.
