Didn't know where to put this but interesting interview by Cole- when reporter used praised from pep and said must have been difficult telling pep you wanted a change - Cole said " I never wanted to leave city, I wanted to go out on loan then be ready for the first team but city said either stay or sold"

I see the beeb gossip also running this. Strange one as Pep also allegedly said that Palmer would get more opportunities as Mahrez had gone. Why would Palmer look to leave on loan if he could see a pathway into the team. Doesn't make sense that he would choose to keave. Ah well, them's the choices you makes

That backs up exactly what Pep was saying at the time. I remember him being asked after one of the games about Palmer’s situation and he said that Palmer had asked to leave on loan and Pep told him that he’ll get opportunities here this season because Mahrez is gone. He specifically said that he either leaves permanently or stays, he won’t be going on loan (even thought Brighton were sniffing for a loan at the time).

Would love to understand the logic of it from City’s point of view, as we let McAtee leave on loan but not Palmer.

Good job we didn't send him on loan and took the cash as last night proved once again that as a striker he takes a decent pen.

I don't believe him. He demanded guaranteed playing time. And that guarantee was not forthcoming. Then he heard Doku was on route as well Bobb coming up the pecking order. So he asked to go.
I am fine with it. We can't keep them all and the fee was good.

I concur

And I also think McAtees loan is primarily to put him in the shop window

Did not follow Sheffield, but is he playing this season?
Saw Doyle has just around 10-11 games at Wolves, but nothing specific.

I think a few things but mainly he did well in two games and his stock was high to sell. We obviously thought he wouldn't make it with us if he went on loan and it was now or never and he didn't back himself.

Sancho has still scored more PL goals at the swamp this season than Gashford, Antony and Hoijland

A quite remarkable stat for all the wrong reasons :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I see that an alleged target of ours, Barco has sailed in to join Brighton. Be interesting to watch his progress

Jan 20th is tipped to be an interesting day in our blue heaven. Kalvin goes & his replacement arrives along with somebody else.

Me too. Nothing against the kid but shows the difference in mind-set that is required with us. You would imagine that someone would be inbound if he does move away

Brentford ITKs reckon that's when the Toney transfer will occur which will trigger a domino effect.
