Interesting discussion by Cov fans and I noticed this. They’ve been playing with a midfield three this season and don’t really play with a #10 anymore and this guy said Palmer can’t really play as an #8. We don’t really play with a #10 anymore either, which makes us signing Palmer all the more confusing. Palmer’s always struck me as one of those mercurial, stereotypically-lazy attacking midfielders who doesn’t do much running but can pop up with a moment of brilliance. Quite similar to Koren. I’m just not sure where he fits in.
I haven't seen him a great deal but whenever I have he seems to get on the ball a lot and shows plenty of strength which we do lack at that end of the pitch. Maybe I've just caught him at good moments because I see the general consensus amongst Cov fans seems to be he's amazing every 1 in 8 games roughly.
Probably carrying Amrabat to Turkey. 5 hours ago: https://www.fenerbahce.org/haberler/futbol/2024/8/sofyan-amrabat-istanbul-da
Baz mentioned it earlier in an update but never specified it. Last year he did a deadline day review sort of thing and dropped names etc so I’m sure we’ll find out eventually.
We can still sign free agents after deadline right, or is that rule changed too? I can't follow these days.
Yeh I just found the comment... "And there's something else that may be being worked on - not a striker. Waiting to see how that one develops this afternoon."
