Yep, agreed.Good luck to the lad.
When Guardiola said Palmer would be staying or sold in the post match interview, it means the kid is already not in the plan, let alone Doku is here now.Time will tell if it’s a good deal for us.
I’m just surprised it’s getting done when we’re already lacking squad depth.
Hopefully the summer will bring in some quality attacking talent.
Perhaps it's the other way round and the players lack the patience.Another one here with mixed feelings.
Good: Unbelievable price.
Bad: We have so little patience with academy products. I fully understand why, and we’re rich enough to do what the fcuk we like, but it’s still a source of regret. Also, I don’t think Chelsea’s a good career move for him, even though he’ll get mucho coin.
My thoughts/best guess too.Not sure I agree. I doubt Chelsea would have pushed through such a deal last minute if they weren't going to play him. He'll definitely feature more at Chelsea.
This aged well.£40m for Palmer? I like the lad but there’s not a chance anybody pays that for him.
They've got rid of an awful lot of players to be fair.Sad to see him go, but a good deal for City at that money. Might struggle to get some playing time with them having a squad of 50.
I didn’t factor Chelsea into that post! We’ve had a right Bruce bonus with them getting involved. :-)This aged well.
Mucho coin soon come. Mucho games not soon come; )Another one here with mixed feelings.
