I didn't ask if they were better than Rico, however they clearly aren't as majority are knocking around at relegation battle teams. They are decent players, thats it. Rico has potential to be a lot more.Not saying they're better than Rico, just saying they were never given the opportunities Peps given Rico.
been out injured since Oct.Perrone would be starting for us considering our current midfield standard. Looked great in La Liga last season, haven't been following him much this season, though. Right now, we could do with all of them, though.
having watched them both for several years in the EDS they were close, but for me Palmer was better.Wasn't better than when Foden made it at City. Didn't him take him long to register his first senior Premier League goal (match winner vs Spurs)
And yet Palmer didn't show enough for Pep to give him more starts at City and there were little signs of him showing his Chelsea form either.having watched them both for several years in the EDS they were close, but for me Palmer was better.
Still a massive loss and Rico will never be a top midfielder imho, not clever enough and not strong enough
Gundo, Bernardo and Kova are all too old. We miss Palmer
Potentially so, not disputing that. Would just be Saka if palmer was still here.Decent player is an understatement him and saka going to be the face of the premier league for the next 10 years
you do realise Pep gets things wrong every now and again don't you ?And yet Palmer didn't show enough for Pep to give him more starts at City and there were little signs of him showing his Chelsea form either.
Not with Palmer. If he showed any signs of his Chelsea form in a City shirt and we cut him loose then you would have a point.you do realise Pep gets things wrong every now and again don't you ?
as the great Colin Bell said, you need a 30 game run to make a judgement on a player.Not with Palmer. If he showed any signs of his Chelsea form in a City shirt and we cut him loose then you would have a point.
not sure what pep sees in him playing as a midfielder. anonymous is the perfect word to describe him.Shouldnt be playing.....annonymous and pointless in midfield...offers nothing going forward except getting in the way and defensively he just isnt at it when in midfield.
Full back or not at all
