I don’t get why people are worried about his game time, far better him being used sparingly this season than him being expected to win us matches like last.

This is how you develop a young talent like that, not with pressure and expectations. Allow him to come off the bench for 20-30min cameos playing against tired opponents.

We haven’t even gone behind in games yet who’s to say all 4 won’t play if we switch to a back 4.

Such a silly rumour.

He isn’t seeing that though, and he isn’t going to get it under Alonso. Yesterday our forward 3 were dead on their feet after the 65th min and the press wasn’t really there. We needed someone to relieve the pressure and move the ball up the pitch, but he spent the 2nd half trying to undo the mess he created with the lineup/set up. Let’s be honest until he score in the 72min, Palmer was a prime candidate to be hooked.

He got 7mins v Fulham, those are the kind of mins he and other wingers are looking at this min. His next start will be v Leeds in the Cups if he is lucky without European football. Won’t be surprised if Ancelotti doesn’t bother calling him up for Brazil’s next internationals, which will speed up his exit.

The season started 1 week ago mate, he’s a 19yr old kid who’s coming back from injury I think it’s a bit premature to be demanding game time, especially how the front 3 have started.

If he wants to play top level European football he’s got to expect competition and rotation at any top club.

I think people look for problems when there aren’t any.
