Sheffield Utd boss Wilder discusses Patterson rumours

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder is urging calm amid rumours of a move for Sunderland goalkeeper Anthony Patterson.

Patterson is also being linked with Liverpool.

We'll get linked with a lot of players right the way through," said Wilder. We're actively working and putting lists together with me and the staff, and Jamie Hoyland and Mikey Allen. What I will say is that, for me, it's an exciting future for me.

I'm more determined than ever, going back to when I was breaking into the first team or getting promoted as a player or as a manager. It's the here and now and it excites me, extremeny, to know what we can do and the players we can bring into the football club. It's a really good football club.

"And a club that a lot of players would really love to play for."
