80 | Cole Palmer - 2022/23 Performances

[kanovic]

I really hope he plays a full 90 versus Seville and Chelsea. We are in real danger of hampering his development at the moment he ahould be coming into bloom. He's only 6 months younger than Saka yet hasn't had much of a chance and a loan might be the better option after Xmas. Sitting around for 7 weeks during this World Cup will definitely not help him.

You possibly can’t compare a player that plays for city, a team that is always fighting for the title to a player at arsenal that can’t even make top 4? He will get his chance just be patient. People were complaining the same thing with foden. We are not a club that it’s easy to develops player like for example dortmund as we win titles and there is massive competition

Au contraire mon ami "sitting around" during the World Cup will mean that he will get focussed time from the coaching staff on his development during that period and he should be raring to go once the league restarts.
Some of our players my be tired and drained by the experience of playing in Qatar.
If he can stay fit then he could have a good second half of the season.

I am guessing that he will play the full 90 on Wednesday.

 

[Gray]

Had a minor injury problem last week, if he has recovered I think he will play.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

He’s surely gotta be starting games like Sevilla, if he’s fit.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I hope he plays but I'm not expecting it.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Terrible timing if a minor injury keeps him out of games he's nailed on to start.

 

[Josh_D]

Will keep supporting this lad. Not really a CM but he showed glimpses here and there. Not his best game but minutes in the legs are good. More game time will help with match sharpness

 

[WallyA]

Want to see him playing RW, he isn't really naturally suited to playing centrally.

Unfortunately Mahrez needed minutes.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Like I said pre-match, the lad isn't a midfielder and will never shine there for us, his languid almost lazy looking style lacks the tenacity and dynamism in his game to play that position effectively. He's more of a burst player that's suited to playing out wide. Maybe peps trying to instill that into him giving him minutes central. Minutes are minutes at his age but hard not to see a wasted opportunity, want to see him on the wing where he has a license to produce something himself. Hopefully we see it against Chelsea.
