I think it's because he's seen as a jack of all trades master of none. He's solid at everything but every other player in our squad has one quality that stands out.
Palmer will always get assists because he's 3 steps ahead of the game. Problem is most of the rest of the team aren't on his wavelength. He makes so many class passes that look shite because nobody is switched on. Genuinely think if he upped his work rate he'd be prem quality
Sheaf is the only player who can receive the ball from the defence with his back to goal and turn with it. Allen Eccles and Torp can't. Hamer was good at it too.
