Needs a rest. When you’re not sure what a players true position is you have to wonder is he really good enough.

 

[RayCTID]

as the great Colin Bell said, you need a 30 game run to make a judgement on a player.

palmer in his 12 games showed enough promise. he put us ahead in the CS and had it not been for him we would not have won the Super Cup, something we have never won before......

had you watched the EDS for the last 3 years you would know what I'm talking about

Pep disagrees with your's (and mine) point of view when it comes first team matters and Cole Palmer.

It is time to reinvest the game time for other midfield options Nunes for example.

It is a unfair decision from Pep to invest so much midfield resources into Rico Lewis that leading to very less game time for other midfield options. So when it is really needed they are not ready.

We need physical presence in the midfield. The pass and turn era has passed every PL team has improved over time. They evolved Pep has to adapt. Long gone the days when Liverpool and Chelsea midfield was filed with players could not manage a pass and City small build midfielders can just cut through...

Get the tall lads (from 1st time or EDS plenty of options) into the midfield give them game time.

Really sure Pep said he wanted Cole to stay

 

[Blue-Ghana]

I think he will continue to play for the reason that Walker is worse

Like a lot of our players, he seems totally without confidence.

Pep disagrees with your's (and mine) point of view when it comes first team matters and Cole Palmer.

Pep wanted him to stay, he wanted to go on loan but remain a City player if he was t going to get game time, Pep wouldn’t let him, you can’t fault Palmer for wanting to play football than just be benched earning a fortune.

I really want this kid to succeed but just not seeing it. Especially at the top level. Be delighted to be proven wrong.

Ok , time for me to rant.

He is awful, fuckin awful.
He will never make the grade .

I have been watching football for a bloody long time and I know I’m right on this one.

He is over confident in his own ability and he has no right to be.

He points at others as if he knows what to do, he has no pace , no tenacity, no inventiveness, defends poorly, gets on the wrong side of his man consistently, switches off all the time, gives up instantly when bypassed , has no powers of recovery, doesn’t score, doesn’t assist………..


I really could go on.

The very worst thing is , he gives the opponent a shot in the arm when they see him in our line up.

The experiment is over for me .
Im really sorry, but his inclusion is at best puzzling but, at worst, ever so slightly embarrassing.

You forgot he can’t head a ball either
