Cole Palmer Makes Impressive Start at Stamford Bridge
Romano has reported on the praise aimed at Palmer from his Chelsea boss. The Argentine was full of positivity when asked about the Englishman’s start at Stamford Bridge: “We are so happy with Cole Palmer, we trust him for the present and future.”
The Englishman joined the West London club on transfer deadline day for an initial £40m from Manchester City. While at the Etihad Stadium, Palmer was praised as “incredible” by teammate Kyle Walker. The praise from the English defender has been supported by his promising start at Stamford Bridge, where he has been the creative spark for a Chelsea team struggling to find consistency.
What Palmer Has Brought to Chelsea
Palmer has enjoyed a regular starting role at Chelsea and has impressed with his guile and ability to pick out a decisive pass in the final third. Pochettino has further praised the England under-21 international: “He’s a clever guy who has adapted really quick. He needs to improve, but he’s showing great quality. He’s a key part of our project.”

While at Manchester City, Palmer scored six goals in 41 games for the cityzens. Since moving to London, the 21-year-old has shown his class, and was impressive against Spurs and seemed to be at the heart of everything good that his team done. He has three goals and four assists in ten starts, in all competitions since his move to Chelsea, and it seems his importance at the club will only grow with Pochettino making it clear he is a big part of his plans.
