    Another good cameo last night. He has 4 less assists than O’Riley in the league and it feels like he’s played about 10 games. Played some nice balls into Kyogo.

    Be good to see him, Kuhn and a couple others get a start at the weekend. Then bring in on all the main men last half hour.

    Hasn't started a game in 3 months apparently. Which I found hard to believe but was said on comms.

    His ability isn’t in question, there’s a clear mentality issue that needs ironed out. Particularly if he’s to prove to Rodgers he’s the answer long term.

    He’s scored beauties in the Champions League, he’s a player. He just needs to get the other part of being an elite footballer locked down.

    Most of the ridiculous signings last summer we should be looking to sell but Palma is the best one by far IMHO and would be happy if we kept him.

    Does seem to have something about him, Needs coaching, takes way too many touches, kills momentum too often.

    Most of his corners caused real panic. He's still trying to score with them.

    That header he missed..

    He's got clear ability, but does he have that killer mentality.

    I thought he was excellent today, should have scored the header which would have made the game far more comfortable, but a good shift.

    It’s amazing because everyone around me thought he was pish today and Rodgers proper went off his nut too, there was laughs at my bit when he got MOTM.


    Just shows you how perspective changes everything

    I think there is also people who just can't tale to him, which probably contributes

    He's frustrating but 20 goal contributions in a stop start debut season for us is not to be sniffed at.

    As I said in the match thread, coach him properly and iron out his flaws and there's potentially a very good player there. Never hides and always wants the ball. Seems to enjoy it here too which is positive to see.

    Folk don't like him smiling after missing chances or * up but that doesn't mean he doesn't care or isn't taking it seriously. Some people just react differently in those situations.

    100%, how many times have we seen it with different players?

    Still think there’s a player there definitely, thought he looked much physically stronger from the last run of games he played too.
