Liam Palmer

[edinburghowl]

Two very good performances for Scotland in our last two group games and he seems to be really growing into the right back role. I’m delighted for him. I’ve been very critical of him before for his performances in dark blue (sorry Liam) but he definitely deserves big praise for the last two games. Great to see a Wednesday player doing well on international duty.

No surprise he's  a decent championship player who should be able to hold his own against the likes of Cyprus and Kazakhstan.....

Trust me mate, Im Scottish, and we don’t take anything like that for granted. Even Andy Robertson looks anonymous and ineffective for the national team on occassion.

At times it feels like a Scotland jersey is the footballing equivalent of Lex Luthor’s power-draining kryptonite necklace in “Superman: the Movie”

good isn’t it

Well said

Good/Solid player for a mid table team. 

 

I don't want to be too harsh, because he is a good bloke, but if we're ever wanting to challenge for promotion then Liam Palmer won't be playing right back. (Not first choice anyway)

[cowl]

He played well.

 

I even recall the commentator remarking on what an excellent attacking outlet he's been down the right.

 

Oddly enough, since moving back from left to right for us, his form has dipped, so I really hope he get back to a consistent run of good form for us.

 

Having said that, I wouldn't be against seeing Odubajo given a crack at it again (although perhaps not against West Brom!)

Watched the game vs Cyprus and was really surprised by how vocal Palmer seemed to be. Always seemed to be instructing players around him and gesturing about where they should be standing etc.

 

Considering most of these players were regular prem players it caught me a bit by surprise. I always assumed Palmer was a quiet player and he would be even more quiet in the same team as prem players.

Saw quite a few positive comments from Scottish fans on his performance last night cos normally they slag our players off, apart from Fletcher on occasions. 

[OxonOwl]

I was impressed by him and his confident demeanour.

[SiJ]

Really think he has come on leaps and bounds in the last 12 months. 

 

Perhaps not the most spectacular player, but he's a really solid option at RB or LB imo. 

 

Nice to have someone coming through our youth system (be a fan too) and get some form of recognition on the international stage. 

 

Be great to see get a chance to play in the Euros next summer.
