I'm sure you've all noticed it, but Palmer fucks me clean off with that weird pushing his arse into the defenders dick for no reason when he has the ball

He's already ahead of the defender, use that yard or so to your advantage and break.

But no, he decides to bend over in front them, back into them leading to arms all over the place etc, and then decides to run

Makes me irate everytime

It never annoyed me before, but now it will. Cheers

Palmer will go for 7 figures and I think he’s bang average.

I thought Palmer looked OK in the bits I saw vs Bremen, the problem is he just does not deliver that final ball

Accept for assists against Everton and SV Werder Bremen

You do realise one of the basic coaching methods for a player to gain space is; step back into an opponent and then spring forward. They are rocked back on their feet and you are moving forward. It can gain you two yards. Technically a foul but a ref will never give it.
Jack Charlton coached it all the time.

Yeah I don’t get it either

Thank fuck for that, if him and Collins going means we get Madsen or someone in then I'm all for it

Don't think we'll see 3 keepers here come end of the window. Couple more tweaks and we are almost there. A good window this far.

Yea I'm aware of that

But watch to the extent Palmer does it. It's constant, exaggerated and usually results in losing the ball instead of using the yard or so he already had to take the ball away

Tomh111 · Aug 6, 2024

I quite like Palmer, but I don't see how he will fit in if we move to a flat 3.

I think he is a good Championship player, but that's his limit. He would flourish in a foreign league, I think, where he had more space and more time.

No bids received as yet. Concrete interest. 2 championship clubs, the other I don't know the name / league. (I'm sure it will be on George Smith's Twitter in about an hour or so though )

Norwich and Middlesbrough?

Apparently, Callum Doyle has signed for Norwich on loan, that's a shame, he's Left Footed, could've been cover for Jake Bidwell if he gets injured and the extra Centre Half we need.

We've signed Haji Wright as well, by the way.

We have cover of a sort in Burroughs who's played either side, might be worth keeping him around IMO?

MVE was being watched even before he came to us, clubs will always keep an eye on a players journey. There is interest, same goes for Sheaf, who's been heavily scouted this past 2 seasons. Thing we have to remember is, it will take a record bid for either player, is there anyone prepared to meet those valuations at this time. We hold the cards, a position I'm grateful we're in, it's about time.
No need to panic though, whatever happens, players are not irreplaceable. Scouting is ongoing. They have come out and said the aim is promotion, selling without replacing is out of the question.

Thanks mate, appreciate your insight. Hopefully we keep hold of all our best players this season and get the job done

Very sensible and wise words.

We are literally living our best lives currently as city fans / let’s enjoy the ride now.

I hope so. I'm not worried either way. For the first time in a long while, we are in a good financial position. Building a great squad.

Wise words. People wanting our players is a good thing. Clubs should be watching most of our players. Simms should go for a fortune in a year or two. I remember having the likes of Birchall, Kyle and Cairo on the books. We couldn't give them away!

Exactly this. Going to have to get used to being a team with wanted players. That's a great compliment to us as a club. MVE has so long left on his contract, that we can afford to say no, come back in a year when he could potentially be worth even more, and still 2 years on his contract. Dovin, I can already feel will bring a great amount in the future.

Bit apart on valuation it seems...

100% agree.
Palmer's effectiveness is over-rated because he shows flashes of skill occasionally, but essentially he is a bit of a show pony. Allen is more effective overall (and a better team player too).

Generally no smoke without fire in my opinion. Often the bidding club has had some encouragement to continue negotiations.

It’sabatch87 · Aug 7, 2024

Maybe Doug will find the extra £100 down the back of the sofa!!

Trueskyblue20 · Aug 7, 2024

Doug managed to get Binks transfer down from £6m to £1.7m so it’s no suprise we are apart on the valuation. I’m sure after time they’ll accept our next offer of £250 and a signed Sean Maguire poster.

That move is what John McGinns game is all about

This feels like an end of the window deal where both parties want to meet in the middle and get it done.

Gint11 · Aug 7, 2024

My bugbear with Palmer is the amount of times he gives the ball away and slowing down fast counter plays. Sometimes he keeps it moving quick but most often slows it down wanting to look up and take 2/3 extra touches.

we are at our best when we counter fast (well, pre new total football philosophy change)

I suspect if we do really want him we will get him
