That’s the crux of the situation though isn’t it? What you want to see from an attacking wide left player and what we expect (City/Pep) might differ completely. In fact I’m sure it does because if we wanted a player similar to Tavernier then we would unlikely have gone and paid big bucks for someone with very different attributes.I watched the MOTD highlights and I know this can and will be picked apart but just as a loose comparison the lad Tavernier who played for Bournemouth against Leeds did what I would like to see from an attacking wide-left player

i suppose as an individual Palmer, but I could name lots of players in the game that would apply to. All would have no relevance because Pep picks the team as a single unit and every player has their role in that unit. So for me I watch the team and appreciate how they perform and the results as a team.Who gets you more excited with the ball, Palmer or Grealish? This isn’t a loaded question by the way
For me the clip from match of the day at the weekend of us playing out from the back through the press and almost scoring, or those goals with lots of passes and every player touching the ball excite me as as much as a bit of individual skill, maybe more.

With 8 others behind the ballDid he have 3 marking him?
When Palmer does get 10 minutes he comes on and plays with a freedom that Grealish doesn't. I can't understand what's going on. Mahrez has the license to lose the ball at will, which he does, but Grealish never loses the ball - but it's almost like we want him to try. The lads got the talent. Whether we ever get the best out of him I just don't know.

Think getting 10 minutes when the game is won against tired opposition is always going to look more impressive. Which isn't a knock on Palmer or celebration of Grealish, it's just a hard comparison to make.When Palmer does get 10 minutes he comes on and plays with a freedom that Grealish doesn't.

As are comparisons with Bournemouth players who play a completely different style of football and against opponents who do not set up to defend.Think getting 10 minutes when the game is won against tired opposition is always going to look more impressive.

Yeah, for sure. Mine wasn't a dig, just an observation, but you are right that it's all relative.Think getting 10 minutes when the game is won against tired opposition is always going to look more impressive.
