I think it maybe either/or. I am sure there is a rule that you can't loan more than one player to the same club in the PL .
However, I stand by my observation that we now have more depth in attacking positions than we do in defensive ones, so a loan for the Man City defender would be a better bet.

Got to love NSCWas shit in 2 small sub appearance then starts the semi and does that!
Did you watch it?
He was pretty poor for the first 40 minutes yesterday, playing on the right, as he has been most of this Tournament.
They doubled up on him and he seemed to lack the confidence to try and take them on.
Yes he has a wonderful left foot, he delivers a mean corner and his crosses are Beckhamesque.
But it was only when he switched to the left in the second half did we see him come to life.
We already have Mitoma and Adingra to play left wing and we're also well stocked for Attacking Centre Midfielders, which is Palmer's preferred position.
If we signed him to play right wing then we would need a full back who would overlap on the outside, like Pervis does on the left, and Veltman isn't that type.
That said, Ferguson would love playing with him as his crosses are excellent.

I've seen some of those movies. Looks exhausting.
I don’t - we wouldn’t be looking Palmer or anyone like him instead of cover at the back. They’re not mutually exclusive pieces of recruitment.

Brighton & Hove Albion are leading the race to sign England Under-21 forward Cole Palmer on loan from Manchester City.
Palmer was part of the England side that won the European Under-21 Championship earlier this month after beating Spain 1-0 in the final.
City are unwilling to sell Palmer this summer but are open to him spending the next season out on loan which has triggered a frantic race for the 21-year-old’s signature.
Burnley and Leicester are also among the many clubs interested in taking Palmer, who also has interest from overseas, but Brighton are thought to be at the front of the queue at this stage.
Pep Guardiola, the City manager, and director of football Txiki Begiristain are admirers of Roberto De Zerbi’s style of play and believe Brighton would be a good fit for Palmer if he was to leave.

Makes sense, Pep likes RDZ and the way he has us playing, old and young. Perfect place to develop talent

As a back up to Solly March as a right sided forward, I expect. Solly was injured at the end of last season due to what I think was a fatigue related issue.
If we had this lad coming on for the last 15 minutes of league games, plus the odd start and domestic cup game it would reduce the strain on Solly. Makes sense.

I don't believe this one at all.
Keep saying it on this thread but I just can't see where he fits in. He's not going to join a club on loan where he isn't guaranteed some minutes. Or Burnley - doesn't have to move, guaranteed minutes, playing under Kompany.
Makes no sense coming here. All It does it give Pep insight into RDZs methods.

Pep "Cole. Welcome back from the loan spell at Brighton no? What did you learn from their gaffa?"
Cole "Well, they kinda play like us but have worse players'
Pep 'Brilliant! I knew it was worth sending you as a spy. As you know, I am known for my lack of innovation and tactical knowledge so this really helps give me ideas and hopefully one day be as successful as their manager."
Yeah. He would really be a bit part player which would make it an odd move from City's perspective. As others have said the only sense would be as a swap for Solly and Goodnight moving in field more.

I'd rather develop Buennanotte as Solly's understudy.

I watched the game and didn't see anything wrong. What antics did I miss?

He didn't clap the fans at the end of the game
He had a running battle of petulance with the Spanish for most of the match.
Diving, faking injury, mouthing off. Caused the scuffle after the goal by celebrating in front of the Spanish bench.
Apart from all that he did nothing wrong.

Assuming he's a Manchester lad, perhaps even a city fan, I could see him going to Burnley. Kompany and Pep will have strong links, Cole will probably worship Kompany and Burnley is just up the road so he wouldn't need to move, loose his social circle, family etc. I think he probably knows he would get more game time there too.
I think it's important for Bunonotte's development that he is not pushed down the pecking order.
