I'm a Northern Ireland season ticket holder. I've seen this kid play at Derry City and keep an odd eye on the SPL. However much I'd love to see an Ulsterman sign for Liverpool I really doubt what he could bring to the club, apart from adding depth to the left side.
There is no question he has incredible feet and trickery. He made his first competitive start for Norn Iron against the Faroes and had a fantastic game, however he has featured very little for the Celts. At his best Paddy could be a very good impact player but at 27 and not impressing in the SPL I'd doubt what the lad could honestly bring to the pool.
He could very well be overwhelmed by a move to Liverpool and I just cant see it being a great move.
Potential similarities to a 25 year old Ivan Sproule, snatched from obscurity in Norn Iron by Hibs, became a hero, great pace and trickery, scored 3 against the Gers, moved to Bristol City where he did nothing, loaned to Yeovil Town and now a squad player again with Hibs................
Just my thoughts....
