[@garyosborne5144]

I would say Chelsea regret selling De Bruyne a bit more.

[@tomschuette3730]

We sold him to Wolfsburg after loaning him to Bremen… He couldn’t get in the team at the time over Hazard, Pedro, and at the time Oscar was in fantastic form. You can’t have every star player, and at the time he wasn’t a star and couldn’t sniff the pitch over those 3

[@bluelionking5285]

Fyi, Chelsea didn't directly sold De Bryune to City. It's to Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. Get your facts straight mate😂

[@pealamek1040]

City bought KDB from Wolfsburg not Chelsea

[@bluelionking5285]

And Salah to Roma first not directly to LiVARpool. 😂

[@dhirajchakma3081]

Although everyone pointing to the fact that selling kdb was not direct but still it was regrettable to sell salah and kdb. But palmer is a league above foden and will consistently outperform foden and any attacking midfielder city have in coming years

[@kitataq]

The real question is, do man city regret giving Foden minutes instead of Palmer? Well I don't think they do.

[@blueheaven4838]

[@renzelkhamacho1379]

Here's the truth, most Man City fans were shocked when they heard that Palmer was leaving, myself included. We thought this was gonna be a breakout year for him for us. Now do fans regret it? Not really, not because Palmer isn't good, he's top! But we don't regret it because with or without him we're doing well, we're league leaders and still can win another treble, so what's there to regret? If Palmer was sold to Liverpool or Arsenal and was scoring all those goals to help them win the league, we'd 100% regret it! But the fact that he's at Chelsea who are absolutely zero threat to us, we don't care if he scores 100 goals to be honest! In the future though, should Chelsea be good and compete for the league again and Palmer helps them beat us to it, the answer will be "yes we probably regret it" but as of now the answer is a resounding NO, atleast for me and a lot of City fans I've spoken to share the same sentiment.

sometimes you have no real choice but to sell a goodyoung player even when you don't want to, palmer would have had to wait to get his chance at city but football is a short career he didn't want to wait any longer. Sometimes you have just to take the money and reinvest.

Maybe not now, but I feel like that might change in a few years, but not a big massive regret way. Despite Foden really stepping up, I feel like Man City are missing some of the key players who left (which they wanted to leave) Gundogan and Mahrez and I feel like Palmer would have been a great replacement on the right wing for Mahrez. And with Bernardo approaching 30 and KDB over 30, maybe in a few years they might look at Palmer be like 'Wish we would have kept him', but honestly, with their money, they could just buy their replacement without too much fuss. So a tinge of regret considering he came through the ranks and is homegrown, but not really a huge set back
