GrahamC Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Shame it isn’t permanent from the outset, Baffling signing in the first place, mediocre whilst on loan to us & we still spend £3.5m on him & pay him £20k a week.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my take on it but let’s not forget LJ saw enough in him to say given a full pre season he could get the best from him. To be fair it looked like that might have been the case at the start of last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardy Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 I think Semenyo’s rise has been the final nail in the coffin for Palmer. As much as he can light up a game with a few nice touches & passes he is a show pony with inconsistent displays & very poor defensively. With Williams & Walsh still to come back I think we should be looking to get rid of his high wage atleast. If we can get anything north of £2m permanent for him then I think we should cut our losses & snap their hands off. All in all a bit of a disaster this one!

Fordy62 Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Still can’t help but feel that he’s never been given a proper prolonged chance a la COD. But has always been defensively weak and it doesn’t look like DH caters for luxury players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 If this one happens we would have moved on Szmodics, Morrell, Elliasson Smith and Palmer. So if Brunt and Williams hadn't been recruited the numbers would be about right. I guess only Massengo and Nagy will be kicking around in the U23s now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibs Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 He’s got to go. Waste of money and waste of talent sat on the bench - if he’s lucky. Interesting to see what he does at Swansea should he go there. The lack of creativity does worry me a little with Eliasson and Palmer both going, Szmodics too to a lesser extent I suppose. Leaves us only with Paterson as that genuine No.10 and real attacking playmaker. Hopefully he doesn’t get injured. If I’m looking at the positive, it’s that it probably means Liam Walsh is closer to being in the squad and you could maybe place him in that playmaker category.

Jerseybean Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Loan with the option to buy is being explored. Makes total sense given we have too many midfielders and at 23 KP needs regular football (as per NE, JM and SS) and (as also per the others) is unlikely to feature much in our first team. Seems to me the sticking point might be the wording in the option to buy clause...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs at the bottom of the Championship like Wycombe and League 1 & 2 clubs can’t afford him. He’s not good enough for the Premier League and hasn’t done much to attract attention from a financially healthy club abroad. That leaves clubs like Swansea who are likely to be pushing for promotion 2 hours ago, Kibs said: He’s got to go. Waste of money and waste of talent sat on the bench - if he’s lucky.

I think you’ve solved your own problem as Walsh is a creative player. A different style to the others but definitely creative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampshire reds Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 i dont get why we are giving Swansea who are going to be pushing for pomotion a skillful player like Kasey. if they want to buy him then i can understand it.

In modern football there are very few teams at any level with a Riquelme or a Rivaldo... You can't afford to carry anyone these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted October 16, 2020 Report Share Posted October 16, 2020 Palmer is an excellent player and think he will do it ok in Swansea. The way we play have no rom for Palmer. . Eliasson and him are both unusual good players but dont fit in the system so to say. Wish them both good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyez Posted October 16, 2020 Report Share Posted October 16, 2020 I’m a big fan of Palmer, but if him leaving means more game time for the likes of Williams and Walsh then I am all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted October 16, 2020 Report Share Posted October 16, 2020 Currently undergoing a medical there.

There are times where Pato can be completely anonymous, but I’m hoping Walsh can be that creative spark when he’s back fit if required. Think Bakinson and Williams will be fighting for that spot in the defensive 3 and then we have Pato, Weimann, Walsh, Nagy, O’Dowda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLRed Posted October 16, 2020 Report Share Posted October 16, 2020 So no sale included in loan. If that’s the case, it baffles me why we would strengthen a division rival? only thing I can think is if he gets a good run of games and hits real form his value will be much higher next summer window when hopefully things are back to some sort of normality. or he comes back to us fit and in form.
