So we aren’t allowed to praise a former academy lad who is top scorer in the league?Every time he scores, the fanboys come out. Are the Chelsea forums as obsessed with him?
I'm sure you're aware that some are going overboard on him. He's a former (repeat, former) City player who is now at another club. I wish the lad well, apart from when he's playing against us. But; the last time I looked, we're still in the running for three trophies. And that's without Palmer in the side.So we aren’t allowed to praise a former academy lad who is top scorer in the league?
What happened happened, but he will be to us what De Bruyne was to Chelsea.
Quite similar circumstances as well in regards to how both players left each club.
Correct. If we were playing the Champions League final on saturday, and we had a 100% fully fit squad available, including Palmer, does he get in the XI; yes, or no? As for "well; he'd be handy to have on the bench"? He wanted more game time.He’s doing well but he still doesn’t get in city team for me
He wouldn't but he's good enough based on his form for Chelsea. However, last season he didn't do enough when given minutes. Too many times he casually strolled about in a languid manner without enough urgency desire or commitment. Had he shown Pep more than he did he'd still be playing for us, but instead of being a stand out player for Chelsea he'd be a very good squad player at City.Correct.

Possibly the post of the thread.He wouldn't but he's good enough based on his form for Chelsea. However, last season he didn't do enough when given minutes.

Palmer has probably made the right move to get the games he needed but i doubt he'll win as manh honours for them as he would have won with us. Time will tell...
