Cole Palmer

We're a victim of our own success with players, particularly those on the fringe and young ones. Just taking last season alone Palmer has won the three biggest trophies there are to win in club football. The premier league, champions league and fa cup. He's also won that super cup thing if you count that as a major trophy. He then gets offered more playing time and increases his wages at a club that have the money to compete at the top level too. I can see why he went.
Nice problem to have
 
Well, as expected, Palmer did nothing tonight despite the commentators mentioning his name every time he went near the ball.

It's a long season and he has got to do more than score the odd penalty :)

Turned over regularly, as this game was dull as ditchwater.
However, saw Cole get dispossessed in the middle of the pitch, as his control was not the best and he is still lightweight.
He was very good against City, but against teams sitting deep with aggressive defenders, he will lose possession getting knocked off the ball.
However, Chelsea players do have a knack of "folding" and getting free kicks. So he will soon learn this dark art.
Don't think he will start so many games as the season goes on...

Interesting to see the British media building him up to be some kind of superstar. As soon as he has a few bad games they’ll be knocking him down
 
Carragher mad me laugh last week.
Was dismissive of Harland closing in on the 'fastest to 50 goals' record as he takes pens and Andy Cole didn't.

Then lauded Palmer for his impact at Chelsea, where he showed great character with his injury time (yeah you guessed it!!!) penalty.

In bad times with the severe shits, I have delivered better things than Carragher. Who the fuck does this navvy think he is?
