[Albion] Palmer

[Audax]

Hmm, you have to wonder why all the decent targets never seem to get over the line. Palmer, Kudus, KDH

Money

Money is one element. Another that a lot seem to forget is ... it doesn't matter who strong a case we put in front of a player if they're simply not interested in joining us (which could be for any number of reasons). I suspect in the case of Palmer he always had his eyes on a bigger club, and even if he had come to us he would have been another one-season-wonder.

Joao Pedro, Kaoru Mitoma, Valentin Barco. List goes on.

Yup - all of which shows if the player is willing to join us, we can get the job done.

He's the most gormless looking and sounding player I've ever seen.

Such a shit haircut. Looks like he should be out trying to steal mopeds.

Chelsea probably paying him 3 times the wages we would have offered.

 

[schmunk]

I suspect that he had a word with Jason Steele in the tunnel about hair transplants though as no youngster would have a hairstyle like that if they weren’t receding prematurely.

Oop there it is...

 

[Flounce]

We ended with none of our first choice back 4, and still missing our first choice wingers. Combined with a less than perfect midfield and it's amazing that we're still fairly competitive.

And it bodes well for the future with some new signings and less injuries. RDZ will have the players to rotate (which he is insistent on) in busy periods as long as it’s not most of the team! Not many smaller clubs have decent replacements all over the pitch.

 

[Flounce]

He may be a baller, but by Christ he’s a rancid little scrote..an apt fit for that club and their knuckle dragging moronic fans.

But how much would we love him if he was our rancid little scrote?

True, although he was a deadline day deal, if we had been pushing all summer?

 

[Washboard Didgets]

I thought it was because he has the nickname "Cold Palmer" because he's super cool when taking chances/penalties and rarely fluffs it/snatches a shot etc.

There's a wonderful thread when we were being linked with him (loan) in the summer and some said they didn't want him.

Me. for one.

I definitely got wrong how good he is. I stand by my call that I didn't want him on loan though - he'd just have blocked the progress of Enciso and Buonanotte (nobody could foresee the scale of the injuries we've suffered).

Tbh, I would be happy if we never loaned another player.

Just seems a complete waste of time, (unless it is a pre-cursor to a pre-arranged permanent transfer).

 

[sagaman]

Looks a fantastic player and any team would want him

Another Colwill I'd be happy with, another Fati (and one or two others I could name) - no thanks!

Even Colwill - who I really rate, I’m not fussed about (except when I thought we might get him permanently).

He was great for us, but whose to say JPVH if we’d retaiNed and trusted him, wouldn’t have developed and done a similar job?

Genuine choices for the manager. Brilliant to have that sort of squad depth, eh? Something some on NSC have been going on about for a while now........

 

[AlbionBro]

Irritating celebration but what a wonderful player!

That lad plays with ease and a joy to watch. I would say one of the true naturals, looking forward to seeing if he can be an all time great.

 

[essbee1]

He'll be off in the summer.
