I wish people wouldn't expect Palmer to play like O'Hare. They may play in a similar position but they are completely different players. Palmer doesn't have the stamina and intensity like O'Hare, but who has? I cannot think of another Championship player who plays like O'Hare.
However, when Palmer is on the ball I have far more confidence that he will create something. Palmer is technically very good and is strong on the ball. He is now playing regularly and will only get better.

scores more than ohare. if you could combine the 2 players somehow, maybe some futuristic science type robot man, then you would have a player.

He hadn't played much before he came to us and needed to build fitness. I didn't think it was complex.

I think he is fit now. Look at his input over the last few weeks few assists and goals if I remember right. Adding to the rest of his game.

He's a good signing. A proper championship player.

He seems committed, something that has apparently held him back in the past, good signs.

I need to reread this one after a beer. I was saying earlier in the season he needed fitness and game time. Now he's had it it's paying off.

Agree Steve

one was hunted by a top end championship club for several million and the other was paid off to a lower end championship club who wasn’t considered worth a transfer fee as they wanted rid

Looks like he’s enjoying his football here which is the first step. Being asked to play basically second striker a lot with a forward in front of him who doesn’t seem to like running onto through balls. And Jamie Allen being too slow to get on the end of anything. Really want to see a few games with him and Godden.

And he can do a goal for us like Wrexham did a goal for them against us.
Doug, DON'T SELL HIM!
Obviously including the one he did for us against them that they couldn't do against us.
