I wouldn’t be bothered if he moved on. We need players with more output. As a creative midfielder he doesn’t chip in with enough assists or goals and he’s on very high wages.

He finished on 4 goals and 7 assists, I’d say its just his goal output letting him down

Wouldn’t mind having him in the squad but would also like the cash in. I just don’t think we should be gambling on inconsistent players with above average skill, would rather bring in consistent performers.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He’s scored two fantastic goals this season, but spent the rest of his time showboating and failing to cover ground. If he can’t find the self control now, he probably never will.

Only 2 and 4 in the league in 32 games. Only 1 of those goals was from open play. Not good enough for a "number 10".

2 goals and 4 assists in the league is where the improvement needs to happen.

I know lots say they would love him as back up or as an impact player off the bench, but you're only an injury away from being first choice.

According to the club programme on Saturday, Palmer has our most assists with 8, which is the same amount as QPR's Chair.

That's all comps. 1 against Oxford, 2 against Maidstone, and 1 against Sheff Wed in the FA Cup.

All of Chairs 8 assists and 7 goals were in the league.

 

[no_loyalty]

Someone on the Sheff United forum suggesting they should sign Palmer .

 

[shmmeee]

We’re into “cup goals don’t count” I see. Always a sign that the discussion is heading in a rational direction

 

[covcity4life]

Most on here want rid of him. You must be feeling a bit low today.

Wolves wanted to sign Kevin Kyle when he was here.

So you were wrong again. Always talking about how no one would want him. Are you ever right? Like about anything lol

As for feeling low why would I? I wouldn't mind if he leaves. He's a good player but inonsistent. If we get a fee even better. If he stays then I know he's nowhere near as bad as mike basset fans think so that's ok too as squad option.

Whatever the manager wants.

No you’re allowed two opinions on players: they’re the best thing ever and worth £20m, or they’re shit and stealing a living and must be abused until they leave the club.

No in between !

I get frustrated with Palmer 2bh. I like him - but he goes from Unplayable to non existent all the time.

if you have a squad full of quality - Palmer will complement that well

Does seem the way this forum operates these days. I remember being told I was anti kane just cos I liked dabo. Anti godden cos I wanted Simms to start. Anti Allen cos I liked Palmer. It's like your not allowed to like two players that play same position. Have to pick a side.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Lots need to move away from wanting back up players who aren’t what the first team needs.

 

[covcity4life]

Talking of being wrong…

Robins set to leave Barnsley

Can we read anything into this, particularly as the rumour mill says that Ranson will choose Robins if/when he takes over? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/barnsley/9484019.stm

Have to pick a first XI and everyone else is shit and needs to be “got rid of”. Sometimes don’t even get to XI.

There seems to be a belief that football management boils down to identifying shit players and driving them from the club, I assume the idea is once the shit has gone only great players will be left.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Palmer is crap, can't believe some fans are waiting for him to come good still.

 

[stupot07]

Lots need to move away from wanting back up players who aren’t what the first team needs.

Especially when they are one of the highest earners.

 

[Hobo]

I can't think of one player in our squad that doesn't get a pelting from a section of our fans?
Build a squad? We are more rip it up and start again as a fan base!

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Go to the 94th minute of normal time in the play off final and look at the shot taken.

Remember this pretty well on the day and it was my light bulb moment for me.

Bidwell has had plenty of stick in the past as has Sheaf.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Well you said ‘doesn’t’, at the moment nobody, bar ESB, has an issue with those players.

 

[David O'Day]

Im not Gary O’Neil so no use asking me

Wondered why you said it was realistic? Most PL clubs aren't in the habit of loaning out their 2nd choice keepers. Keepers that are loaned out are normally further down the chain than that.

 

[David O'Day]

???

Richard Duffy, another player than liked a loan to in the past,

I’ve always said someone will take one last chance on him. Not sure what Mike Bassett has to do with it. I’ve said repeatedly palmer is like a 70’s throwback when people like Duncan MacKenzie, Tony Currie and Stan Bowles could play - now the game requires far greater fitness intensity and off the ball energy - he hasn’t got it

He’s not in the same league.

I think his work rate is ok, it’s his final ball that isn’t up to it, and in his position it’s all about how many you create and how many you score ….

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Players I’d be happy to show the exit door to.

Godden
Kelly
Moore
COH
Da Silva

We need..

GK
2 CBs (I would keep Binks if possible)
LB
CM
Winger (who can operate both sides)
CAM
ST

 

[Cally Fedora]

I’d be happy with Palmer in the squad but if the opportunity to get any cash for him arises I’d happily take it.

 

[ptr]

The problem with Palmer is not his stats…it’s quite simply the amount of times in a game he loses possession. Puts the opposition on the counter more than he does us.

 

[Saddlebrains]

@Tea & Busquets been told were looking at a 20 year old swedish Keeper, youre a man who has knowledge who could that be??

Melker Ellborg at Malmo perhaps, on loan to a second tier club at the moment.

 

[ms639]

Whatever happens this summer we have to do our business early and get the squad gelled. We cannot have a start like we have over the last 2 years. Need to be out of the blocks sharpish

Wouldn’t say it’s particularly his job to play keep-ball. That being said, he does often try to force the issue at times and if we’re honest, it doesn’t work out as often as it should - the pass for Wrights goal the other week was what I’d want to see him doing more often.
