I'm all for promising talents being signed mainly by someone with a good eye for youngsters, but at some point, you need players that have a 90%+ chance of delivering the goods from the get-go.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Of the few appearances Palmer has made on senior level I have probably seen a quarter. The player he is most similar IMO is Kai but the Leverkusen one. He has the same swagger and elegance with ability for spectacular goals but is lanky and weak af. Good end speed but average acceleration and balance. What palmer hopefully offers is goals. He has scored in about every match on development and youth level and also in the two super cup games this season but never in PL. At age 21 he is a gamble mostly bc of how little he has played. Kai at that age already had over 100 pro games. I hope Palmer still has the Hunger after winning CL and PL as bit part player but if he wants the move he probably has.

Pizy 19,032 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Spuds actually look surprisingly competent after Kane has gone. Probably shouldn’t be entertaining any sales to them since Big Ange may be legit good. Anyways, they have Sarr and Bissouma in CM and Maddison at #10 so there really isn’t a place for Gallagher. Levy has had a default “No Chelsea” policy for years now. So why would we help them out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,955 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) £45m for Cole Palmer is madness but yeah, we will pay it. If people are expecting him to come in and waltz in to the first team and light it up though, don’t. Has talent but again, has a very very small amount of games in senior football - personally if the plan was always going to be another young kid, we would of may as well have kept one of Angelo or Washington.

Special Juan 28,352 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 If Poch has given this the thumbs up then I'm all for it- Yes he's raw, but so is the likes of Mudryk, Noni, Chucky, Lesley, Lavia and others. We are creating something very exciting here, and I'm right behind this signing YorkshireBlue, Norfolkblue1961, Fernando and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson got 8 PL goals in his debut PL season. That and his age are always going to give Forest the chance to ask for £45-50m and above. Plus the way the market is, £40-50m is the standard starting price considering the money PL clubs have from the TV deals. Wouldn’t say we’ve paid value for money for a lot of players under Boehly so Cole Palmer, if the deal was to be done for £40-45m, would probably fall into the same category as well. Not so worried about the prices as much now as I doubt we will pay value for money often with this ownership now but am a lot more concerned about the profile. Palmer is not proven enough and also doesn’t strike me as the missing piece despite some decent showings for City but again, would they have signed Doku if Palmer was that good and ready to go? But I’ve seen Chelsea people making youtube videos and saying he’s great or whatever already. So I guess he is…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
