Agree with you and said the same, he shows him too much of the goal there and dangling a leg out was half-hearted. Rating should be down to a 5 on that basis.
It's a bit of a flaw with xG that the second of the Palmer chances counts towards the total, it simply wouldn't have happened if he'd scored the first one so sort of misrepresents things to an extent.
It was a similar game, you're right. Even the late equaliser and then MVE's chance after that was from almost the same position as one Hamer had after Wigan scored.
The (at the time coalition I think) UK government has everything to answer for in relation to this scumbag. Quite happy for him and his family to be part of the uprising to overthrow Gaddafi in Libya. Typical of western governments really, happy to court islamic extremists when it suits but...
