If you said Palmer could be better then I’d agree. But Palmer has barely played prem football and when he hasn’t he hasn’t impressed. This kid has so he has that. I don’t think there is any harm in trying to develop palmer by loaning him out. We clearly rate him as otherwise he’d have been sold like the rest of the kids.Palmer is better.
Akanji had been touted all over Europe with no takers. He was offered to us to our surprise. We had seen him but no more. Scout reported he was ok as back up.There in lies the issue with transfer windows for us these days - we have a really small pool to fish in, although we may pick up a rare gem like Akanji (I'd live to know which scout saw that one)
So a bit like the record executive’s when asked to go and see the Beatles or Rolling Stones nothing special they’re just ok ..Akanji had been touted all over Europe with no takers. He was offered to us to our surprise. We had seen him but no more. Scout reported he was ok as back up.

Money don’t sleep. Come on bud, Save this thread from the madness that has taken the it’s quite thread….-:)Apologies, away on hols in Scotland this week.
He used to be a midfielder, his PlayStyle out wide is akin to Mahrez. His control and dribbling are fantastic.I like Olise as a player but for the way we play I’d want highlight videos of him taking on nothing but 2-3 men in a packed defense. The hard part of being a winger for us is that you almost never find yourself isolated in space against a retreating back line. There are lots of skillful wingers who can win 1 v 1 but our wingers frequently have to deal with the double team of a wing back and a wide CB with a cdm in support.
