Surprised by the positive sentiment towards Palmer, especially given how harsh we can be on some of our other ex-players. For me, he's a player who lacked discipline and focus during his time here (and cost us a hell of a lot of money in doing it, though in fairness that's MA's fault). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought his performances lacked a real consistency, but never though a lack of effort tbh. When we saw genuine good movement ahead of him in Afobe for that small period he flourished. As you say, was an Ashton/Johnson signing that didn’t quite work out, but was plenty of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, he's a player who lacked discipline and focus during his time here (and cost us a hell of a lot of money in doing it, though in fairness that's MA's fault). Got any examples? Think he was victim of being signed by a club that didn’t need him, didn’t know how to play him and gave him a 4 year deal to boot. Now doing very well with a club who actually wanted him, and knew exactly how to use him whose style suits him far better too. And I’ll say it again, boring I know, but did so much for us when helping out with food bank deliveries over lockdown. But I guess that won’t matter to a decent chunk of fans because he was on loads of money and it wasn’t plastered all over social media 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been done to death about him lacking effort . It’s bollocks . He was never the right player for us but he doesn’t lack effort . I think he lacks football intelligence . He should be reading games better in & out of position but he doesn’t . I said about him when he was here . He constantly looks like he’s still playing academy football . 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
