Cole Palmer

[Craig]

Whatever we think of him, he's a media star now and is getting the royal (blue) treatment from all and sundry. The working class lad who's made it in the big city just by being who he is - takes everything in his stride, doesn't change, lovable for it. I watched the game yesterday and he scored 2 penalties (the second a cheeky panenka) but I was surprised at all the praise being heaped upon him. Not that scoring penalties isn't a skill in itself. Apparently, he doesn't practice them. He's at the right club (blank canvas situation when he went there - a free hit) and the right manager.
I did wonder if he was doing this for us whether he'd be getting the same amount love ?
Anyway, good luck to him - infinitely preferable to the ego Bellingham. Just hope Palmer stays level-headed. He is good to watch and backs himself every time.

I think he would, Foden got it last season and won all the awards. Went into the Euros with most seeing him as England’s star man. His goal tally would be down at City though because he wouldn’t be on pens. Even without the pens though it’s clear to see he’s special and he has that confidence in himself that all the great players have

Whether it’s Txiki, Pep or both - this, along with £45m on Kalvin Phillips are their biggest fuck ups since joining.

There’s not been many, and they’ve got plenty of credit in the bank but still doesn’t stop the fact we shouldn’t have let him go.

Especially when you consider he didn’t want to! Fuck me.

Ok pal this forum is about opinions and I do feel like the majority of the fault falls on City. Plus who gives a toss who he supports as long as he plays well, look at Rico Lewis he is a blue but he’s not at the level. Palmer scored a screamer v Arsenal and then scored V Sevilla to be put back on the bench, no wonder he got pissed.

Why the fuck bring Rico Lewis into this ?

Only it won't be. People will keep bringing it up.

It enables them to get back on their high horse about him. This site is becoming a yawn fest with bores like him.

My thing was to never leave City. That was not my intention. I wanted to go on loan for a year, come back and be ready for the first team

You can quote Palmer and Guardiola as much as you like, but people will keep saying he wanted guaranteed playing time or he would leave. It's bizarre.

We should be applauded to making the player he is at Chelsea! We kept him he wouldn't be the player he is now he wouldn't have got the game time a regular starter he is now!
