Palmer: "We are going to play 4-3-3"

"We are going to play a 4-3-3 system this season, and i'll be sitting in front of the back four protecting the defence"

"I beleive in my ability, I've trained hard, if your going to play and manage you need to be one of the better players out there on the field"

"Peter Shirtliff will take charge whilst i'm on the pitch, and will bring me off if he feels it will benefit the team, i trust him"

"We have some good youngsters at the club, full of energy, and i'll use my experience as a player to help them acheive promotion"

Carlton was talking on TalkSPORT radio on Sunday July 31st.
