Cole Palmer

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Caicedo. Jackson. Gusto. Cucurella.

Underwhelming for what they cost more like.

Not one of them is a top player.

All good, talented players with plenty of room still to improve. Obviously not everyone can ascend to the top like Palmer, but you said ‘eventually you’ll get one right’ as if he’s the only good signing we’ve made.

This thread should be closed so that those who are still in mourning can get over it.

This thread pops up regularly at the top of the pile but I don't really get it's longevity.
He's gone and it's fine to hold the opinion we made a mistake but isn't it time to move on?

I can understand why the press and opposition fans keep going on about as a stick to beat us with but it seems a perverse sort of masochism to do it ourselves.

Do you think Chelsea fans have a 500+ page thread lamenting KDB leaving?
Move on.

Move on.

They probably do and that threads at 5000 pages by now

Move on.

I'm guessing its because KDB didn't leave Chelsea to go to a rival PL team.

Has Kaz been on to say

"He wanted to leave!"

Yes, yes, perhaps, but a simplistic coping mechanism that assumes our persuasive powers were all they could be and were fully utilised.

He wanted to leave , suck it up ffs

You don't understand it's longevity ? Yet your here post ing on it,lol
Would those posters who are tierd of talking about Palmer please do the simple option and ignore the thread ....think there are about 5,000 other threads you could easily browse and contribute to if you so wished.

We are talking about one of the finest players in the world right now , every true football fan ,imo, would be forgiven for wanting to keep a check on his progress..... it's quite exordinary , and for my own part, I was savy enough to predict he had the talent to be one of the best players on the planet , just as he left us last season.

Others couldn't see that talent , and now sound bitter and angry ,lol.


Great player with a fantastic goal scoring record,one that MCFC football club should be proud of,imo.
Stop the bitterness, just appreciate the sublime footballing ability of our ex player.

I agree apart from the hindsight bit.

He'd already scored in the Community Shield and Super Cup Final whereas Grealish, Lewis and Kovacic (who all played well yesterday) rarely even look like scoring.

To be fair he wasn't getting in City's first team at the time he left and I agree about Grealish and the rest not looking like they are going to score many but he has developed brilliantly at Chelsea and he would not of got the time on the pitch to grow into the player he has. At the time he left the deal was good for everyone so all this we should of kept him is hindsight. Nobody could have predicted that he would have turned into the player he has, Pep gave him a choice, stay and fight for a place or leave, he chose to leave.
