I just don't see anyone who could improve our 1st 11 especially how Pep uses inverted wingers to keep the ball.
If that's so, then we should be looking keep Palmer imo.

If Palmer leaves it will be on loan, I can't see us sacrificing him for Paqueta, we have the cash to do that deal alone.That's a big point imo because if we get someone in for the right wing that's the end of Cole. That's the only bit of this I'm not so keen on.
you find a player you like, say he'll do, buy him for the fee they want and then magically hes there, people on here equate that to real lifeNever played, so I don't get the reference(s). But I always take them as relevant and witty.

I think it is looking more like a case of, if Cole goes, we would get someone in.
At least going by Pep's recent comments. It sounded like Cole is the one pusing for a move that would give him regular minutes. Which when Mahrez was here was probably right. Now he is gone, there is more there to fight for.
But if he is unsure about staying, and he can be used in a deal for an incoming player, themln all parties will push that. At which point we'd imo look to bring someone else in. And sell someone to make the space in the squad.

You could be right, of course, but I go by the bits of information that we have. Also, given our Paqueta interest (confirmed), I highly doubt we would be adding Caicedo as well since Kalvin doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I get your point, though. It could be a smokescreen. I just believe it to be unlikely.Tolmie gets solid information via his press/agent connections but I for one believe our club also uses said connections to create distracting noise.
If we are in for Caicedo we are not going to broadcast it, with Chelsea in the hunt, thats creates a crazy auction and the price would be stupid.
We have history with that and Cucurela, our club is in good hands, I have a sneaky we have been looking at the wrong Brighton player as fans believing the Mitimoa rumours..
Finally, I don't think two opinions are equal as far as transfers are concerned. I would trust Tolmie more than anyone else here, as I believe he is way more informed than the rest of us. That's not to say Mitoma will 100% join, as not even Txiki and Soriano can know that. Nobody does.

Exactly my point. So he can't have it both ways with dismissing a personal opinion out of hand, & in the next post applying absolute authority to a personal opinion. \0/
What is it? Are personal opinions just that, or empirical fact?
I do get it, btw. It is quite common though.
Got proof? ;)If Palmer leaves it will be on loan, I can't see us sacrificing him for Paqueta, we have the cash to do that deal alone.

How does Palmer fit at West Ham? He's not going to get much time ahead of Bowen, is he?
