Or prime Lee Burge (Walsall as just one example)
You never watched Eric McManus then.
Or Raddy Avramovic
No. First keeper I remember was Raddy Avramovic. When did McManus play?You never watched Eric McManus then.
Palmers stupid flick ons to Godden were absolutely ridiculous. Never getting on to any of them even if he did have a bit of pace. Such a frustrating player as he is obviously talented, but decision making is sooo so poor.
Adi Viveash really rates him because his versatility enables system changes during a game.He’s like the nice kid you use as filler in your seating plan. He gets games because others need the rest and he can fill in all over. Also he’s clearly rated by the management team and has been picked as captain which suggests he’s important in the dressing room. The witch hunt against him is just weird.

Such a difficult game mentally and physically for all the players against Hull after the disappointment and exertions on Sunday.
Collins 2Think dasilva did well.
Collins and Thomas shocking
Great goal from Palmer but shocking
Godden should have played his last game
Especially the Bayern Munich EUFA Cup game.You never watched Eric McManus then.
It's not weird if he's a utility player, surely?If that's the case makes it even weirder how he's been picked all the time while others are rotated, even to the point where he's having a mare and instead someone else is subbed off and Lati moved to a different position.
When we got pummeled by Bayern Munich in the fairs cup in the 70'sNo. First keeper I remember was Raddy Avramovic. When did McManus play?
Pass accuracy was 83%I wasn't going to call him out as I'd already ripped half the team so thought I'd let him slide but some of the ratings for Eccles in here are mad, seems he was under the radar shit. Passed to a Hull player at every opportunity.

Yup, 2nd worst behind GoddenPass accuracy was 83%
Palmer was a disappointment, great free kick and one great turn which drew a foul but almost everything else displayed his weaknesses. Either wanted too long on the ball, didn’t meet the ball and it was intercepted, or tried to play some silly style pass when it needed something simple and lost possession, or made the wrong decision. If he can cut those traits out should consistently see the form he has shown at times.
On the one hand it’s decision making and needing a bit more desire to get to a ball first. On the other, as you point out, it’s not changed really. It’s frustrating as he has huge talent and is much more of a physical presence than most 10s.^ Sums up Palmer perfectly. The trouble is, I don't think he can cut out those traits, they're all part of the Palmer package.
I wrote after the Exeter pre-season game that 'Palmer is so talented but his sloppiness with the easy balls is frustrating' and nothing's changed at the end of another season. I love him as a person and he has ridiculous talent, but he can't be a mainstay of next season's team if we want to go up.
Yeah but a few of our other players were 84/85 and still better than half the Hull team so hardly passing to the opposition at every opportunity.Yup, 2nd worst behind Godden
Palmer had an 83% success pass rate. Hardly giving the ball away every time he got it.Collins 3
Lati 6
Thomas 6- he was brilliant until the poor lads legs just went, he was knackered
Binks 7
JDS - 8
Sheaf 8
Eccles 7
Kelly 6
Palmer 2- no free kick can detract from the fact he gave the ball away everytime he got it, utterly atrocious
Bidwell 6
Godden 6
Wright - 8 scared them to death and his all round play was much improved tonight - can’t believe I’m saying this, but probabaly MOTM
Mve - 5
Simms - 7
Allen - 6
Kitching - 6

Perhaps you ought to just change you name to blind. Out of the 4 players you name for better passing only Eccles had a better pass rate. Godden was at 67%Did you go tonight? MVE wasn’t great, but could pass to someone in Skyblue. Eccles was steady eddy and could pass to someone in Skyblue. Even Godden got the ball down a few times and found a teammate.
Palmer has just put in one of the most inept performances I’ve ever witnessed. It was appalling
He’s not the player for that job though. Need to build through the midfield then play him in. Even if he had won long balls there was nobody near him to receive the knock down. He was there to work the defence until the subs could come.Seen a few people say they felt sorry for Godden because he was isolated... Simms comes on and was equally isolated but the ball actually sticks when we pass it up to Simms.
Some of Godden's touches 1st half were appalling it just bounces off him out for a throw in everytime. I thought Wright was very good as well when he came on.
Does anyone think Godden has a future at the club? needs to go in the summer IMO along with Allen and Kelly.

Long balls battling against defenders. It’s just not going to happen is it? Of course he can trap a ball, we know he can and have seen it, he just didn’t receive much service he could be expected to do anything with.Not the player for what Job? a Championship level striker should be able to trap the ball
I get the long balls he can't do much with but when its slapped to his feet or thigh it bounces off him every time. We need a better rotation option with Simms if we're going to hit the next level
Can he!?Long balls battling against defenders. It’s just not going to happen is it? Of course he can trap a ball, we know he can and have seen it, he just didn’t receive much service he could be expected to do anything with.
