He is, he admitted it not long ago in an interview.

Palmer also admitted in an interview that he didn't want to leave us.
In the professional world I am doubting a player will choose one club over another, based simply on their " love" for them. Money, family life, regular football at a high level etc.
Shearer possibly an exception.

Are you for fucking real? He spent the day with the fans getting pissed? He was sat on the fucking bench at the game lol.

Unbelievable.

I remember him being amongst the City fans in the away end in a League or FA Cup match, singing and having a great time while injured. No idea if he was drinking obviously, but despite his rag childhood allegiance he certainly mingled amongst the fanbase more than your average footballer when he was here

Even if Stones and Ake remain, their minutes will be phased out. They simply cannot sustain the intensity of competing for trophies on all fronts, week in and week out.

I hope that we enter the season with Dias, Gvardiol, Akanji, Khusanov, and Reis as the 'main' group. Reis is really the one I am looking forward to seeing more of. He strikes me as a player capable of bringing the ball into midfield and being able to deliver the kind of passes that will split the opponent's press. Khusanov, I see much more in the Walker role as the last man - the defender that you use to shore up shop against the counter as the ultimate in physicality.

At full-back, Lewis, Nunes, O'Reilly is a group that needs adding to. I would personally like to see the promotion of Mfuni, but an experienced player would help.

I rate Mfuni, but too early imo, just turned 17.

Let him prove it at EDS level first.

My issue with your main CB list is you named 4 RCBs and 1 LCB.

Ake HAS to be included in that as the only genuine rotation option, or we sell him and buy someone who is fit and can.

Stones being able to play midfield means we can still give minutes in many spots, just need to be babied.

2 fullbacks should be a big priority in the summer, Lewis Id like to see converted into doing what Bernie does in midfield, control, pass simply, fight your duels.

All he has is we can buy him for 30m Ipswich can set the fee for any other team! This 30m that Media got hold of thinks it's for any team if they relegated

cant see us buying him back, even just to sell him the same window,. He'll have his choice.
