Didn’t realise how well thought of he was/is at Hudds to not celebrate on Saturday
City fans last season: “Our attacking play is so predictable. We needs someone who can unlock defences”
City fans this season: “Fuck Palmer and his wanky flicks and no look passes, we need a nice dependable AM who never gives the ball away and works hard.”

Were people saying that about our attacking play being predictable?
I can remember criticism of missing too many chances.
I don't get the Palmer critics, though there are some drawbacks to his game, undoubtedly.
I'm with you... in Palmer I finally see a player who can do things defenders done expect and that's a bad thing? I think he's starting to come in to his own now after getting fit, he's getting in to the right areas so I'd hope to see more!Yep. “Great until the final third” was the general consensus. “Poor final ball” etc. It was obvious we needed someone who does what Palmer does and now it’s used as a stick to beat him with.
There’s no doubt if Palmer plays to his potential and for 90 minutes there is a top class player there, he’s still a bit hit & miss but when he does those powerful surges through the middle it’s wow, MRs job to get more consistency out of him.I'm with you... in Palmer I finally see a player who can do things defenders done expect and that's a bad thing?

100% agree but I think we'd be daft to write him off while he searches for that consistency which it feels like some people are.There’s no doubt if Palmer plays to his potential and for 90 minutes there is a top class player there, he’s still a bit hit & miss but when he does those powerful surges through the middle it’s wow, MRs job to get more consistency out of him.
Still think he flags a bit after 70 minutes or so but in fairness the last few games he’s been in a bitty team be interesting when we have all our injuries back and some new hopefully better signings as to how he fares, he’s potentially a class act for sure.One criticism levelled at him was that he couldn't start two games in a row.
He's started 6 consecutive matches now so clearly his fitness levels are where they should be now and hopefully he can kick on.

To be fair, I think it was only Strachan who loved him.Most creative players are hit and miss and drift in and out of games. Then there are players like Paul Telfer who ran around alot, achieved very little and was often in the wrong place at the wrong time. But many fans loved him because he worked so hard.
It is a strange world at times.
Strachan loved players who he knew what he was going to get from them.To be fair, I think it was only Strachan who loved him.
Don’t think the fans liked him, quite the opposite.Most creative players are hit and miss and drift in and out of games.
