Despite a summer transfer window that saw the club sign several top players to the squad, Chelsea still find themselves in tenth position. The Blues have been largely inconsistent with their form and have lost 4 of their last ten games. However, Cole Palmer, the club’s 21-year-old attacking midfielder has been their ‘savior’ on several occasions.
The Englishman made the move from defending champions Manchester City after failing to break into Pep Guardiola‘s starting XI. The club brought him to Stamford Bridge for a £42.5 million fee on deadline day, and it is safe to say that he has been worth his weight in gold. With Palmer’s stellar form, Chelsea have found a name to look up to in big games.
Notable moments this season include his 90+5′ penalty against former club Manchester City, and his most recent performance against Luton Town on Matchday 20.
While playing 19 games in all competitions for the club, Palmer has racked up an impressive ten goals and 6 assists for the club. Fans are buzzing after yet another match-winning performance for the Blues.
Fans react to Cole Palmer’s stellar form at Chelsea
Chelsea fans are in high spirits after a comfortable 2-3 win at Kenilworth Road. The Blues opened the scoring through Cole Palmer who also teed up Noni Madueke before netting his second of the night. The 21-year-old is now the man of the moment for Mauricio Pochettino‘s side, and fans just cannot get enough of the player. A fan commented that Palmer has been carrying Chelsea on his back this season.
Another added to his praise, pointing out how Manchester City managed to let go of such a promising talent. Many mocked Pep Guardiola, Palmer’s former boss, for not giving him enough game time. Others labeled Palmer’s season as being better than any Manchester City player’s, but that remains up for debate. One of the top comments read Cold Palmer, an ingenious play on his name.
Here are some of the fans’ reactions:
Some, however, were unimpressed of his spectacular performance and claimed that it was only against ‘poor’ Luton Town. Palmer’s second goal of the night saw him drop the Luton keeper and two other defenders before scoring into an empty net. The caption compared his goal to the one scored by Ozil against Ludogorets in the Champions League. His performance was crucial as Chelsea beat Luton Town 2-3 on the road. They are up against Preston in the FA Cup next.
