Pointless post again
All opinions are welcome. It's a general football forum.
We fucked up when we sold Palmer. What's done can't be undone unfortunately, but I would like to think that someone at City might learn from it.

4 goals in 41 caps is piss poor from Foden, and 2 of them came years ago against Iceland. You can’t keep blaming Southgate for Foden doing nothing at international level.
Playing on the left wing 90% of the time doesn’t help his chances of scoring too much though does it?

And I, for one, prefer his replacement.We sold Palmer. He now plays for another club. Why can’t people get over this?
We got offered £45m for a lad who'd started 13 professional games in about three seasons. We'd have been barmy to turn it down. Palmer needed to leave to shine, he wanted out anyway, and Chelsea gave us a fair deal. No point going over it again and again.
Came on here to post exactly this.We got offered £45m for a lad who'd started 13 professional games in about three seasons. We'd have been barmy to turn it down. Palmer needed to leave to shine, he wanted out anyway, and Chelsea gave us a fair deal. No point going over it again and again.
It looks like it will come to haunt us as he is going to the very top and could have been our future alongside Phil, 2 local lads.
The thing is at the time it was a good deal for everybody. We got good money for a young lad with no experience all promise, and Cole got the move he needed to get the games to grow. No good saying we should have kept him. If he stayed he would have finished this season with a dozen appearances from the bench, not be at the level he is now and would be nowhere near the England squad this summer.
