MAL Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 13 hours ago, Ash77 said: Closest thing to petter rudi ive seen, bit lightweight, harmless (0 goals 1 assist?) and lacking pace for a wideman, no wonder we signed him! Looks better in middle but not needed there!, good energy and tidy passer. Very handy utility/squad player at this level i spose, but not a top player in any position, we need a pacy winger Said exactly the same thing last night.

agentwalker Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 only thing he seems to be lacking is pace. Got in a few good positions on the brake yesterday but just didn't have the pace to trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats true, but I just think he needs to understand that limitation and be more decisive either with crossing earlier or shooting from distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Runner Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Currently not a £5 million player Potential to be a £10 million player Lacking in confidence Poor first half, good second half. He will come good no doubts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beholder Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Such a ridiculous thread. The 5 million is the premium you pay these days for potential. Nobody has suggested he is the finished article yet. Players improve. Look at Sam Hutchinson. People now see him as good enough to play midfield at international level. Not many would have said that last season. As for Reach, he is already plenty good enough to get picked and play intelligently. Will mature into a prem player. I have no doubt about that.

McRightSide Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 He was outstanding for the last 30 minutes last night and good for the rest of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowlisback Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I thought he had a good game - the Guardian singled him out as the outstanding player on show. I thought Palmer had a good game too, made the team of the week in one of the papers this morning - A guy who I served this morning thought he was terrible... Funny old game.

Beholder Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) I think out of all our players, Palmer is judged most harshly. He is a central midfielder converted to a right back. For that reason, the areas he excels in, are those areas more closely associated with being a CM such as having an eye for a pass. The areas that he is weak in are dribbling and shooting. That said, his first touch preceding his chance was excellent. He just needed to maintain his composure after that touch instead of thinking "**** I'm gonna score ! I'm gonna score! Oh shlt" Edited December 27, 2016 by Beholder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 It's good to see that you're willing him on though to prove you wrong. You know instead of willing him on to have poor displays so you can bump your bellend of a thread. Great supporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
