Yeah, it's the same reason we started losing players earlier and earlier. Livramento didn't even want to go on loan. He had played zero professional minutes anywhere and yet he had clubs lining up to pay millions for him. They've seen the successes of Tomori, Abraham (before he got injured)...

Strange to you is perfectly normal and sane to others. It's all about perspective.

I understand it though. I feel the same whenever I see Lewis Hall's name, even though he hasn't really done anything at Newcastle yet. I think it's just a case of different people will have different levels of attachment or bond with certain academy players.

I think it was @domalino who said perhaps Bobb (and other young players at City) are watching Palmer's rise with keen eyes.

I haven't watched much of Oscar Bobb, so I'll trust City fans' judgement when they keep saying he's a bigger talent. I do agree with you though, that it has worked out for Chelsea, Palmer and City. We've all gotten what we wanted out of that deal, for now. Obviously my hope is that he keeps...

I mean 8 goals and 7 assists in roughly 15 starts is genuinely excellent and anyone with those numbers would get the hype they deserve, no matter who they play for. I don’t think any of the attention Palmer is getting is overhype. I don’t even think he’s been getting that much hype to begin with.

One more assist today, albeit straight from a corner and against the mighty PNE.

He scored against United too. And why would you take his penalties away? The last minute penalty vs City was more difficult than a lot of normal non penalty goals this season.

Yeah that’s true, he needs to be better on that front. He can be a passenger at times when we’re under the cosh.

He’s one of the most creative players in our team. I don’t know how anyone can watch him and say he isn’t creative.

I honestly think City fans should take it as huge compliment that we paid so much for a player who had shown so little at point in his career. City’s academy is top of the top, one of the best of the best and the better Palmer does the better City look. Obviously if I was a City fan I’d have...

Love him. He’s the best signing we’ve made in years. The second goal today was pure brilliance.

They were giving him abuse every time he went near them. Fuck those fans. I’m glad he shushed them.

Palmer was a United fan growing up?

I honestly think banning them is so small time. These are 4 different journalists with 4 separate publications or media platforms all running similar stories. Obviously this means there's a leak in the building (and I don't mean literally, which is also true lol). Maybe United should focus on...

Tantrums of pampered multi-millionaires is really such a slimy, weaselly dickhead way to describe what happened. I'd bet a million pounds Oliver Holt has never played football, even casually for fun. Your adrenalin is high and even among mates playing for fun, tempers flare very often. In a...

That’s what Natasha said. Not a wise strategy I’d say.

Hopefully they lose badly on Wednesday, squeeze out of an awful, backs to the all narrow 1-0 win against Bournemouth and then go on a 3 game losing streak.

I keep thinking this will be the week he gets the sack but somehow he manages to secure a random result to prolong the pain and misery lol. Long may it continue.

I'm actually looking forward to playing these lot on Wednesday.
