I think our issue yesterday was getting the ball from defence into midfield. Bakinson in particular had a habit of hiding behind the Birmingham press and not being an option to the centre backs (McTominay does the same for Man U). Palmer probably doesn't play deep enough to be part of that pivot and its probably why King gets the nod and is able to use his experience to connect the lines.
