Cole Palmer’s impressive performance overshadowed by Chelsea humiliation as Jamie Carragher ignites discussion
This article contains affiliate links, and we will receive a commission on any sales that result from them. Cole Palmer scored four goals in Chelsea’s 6-0 victory over Everton on Monday night.
This performance has moved the Blues closer to the European places, which is a relief for Mauricio Pochettino. Palmer opened the scoring with a superb curling effort, and he also nodded home from close range and scored a remarkable chip from 35 yards out.
Additionally, he tucked away a penalty in the 64th minute. Jackson and Gilchrist also scored in the game for Chelsea.
However, despite the positive result for Chelsea, there was some embarrassing tension among the players over who should take a penalty. Despite this, the team’s performance and Palmer’s individual contribution have drawn praise, with some suggesting that Palmer could be a contender for the Premier League’s Player of the Year award.
The match also highlighted concerns about the form of Everton’s goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who made errors resulting in goals for Chelsea. This worrying form has raised questions about his position in the England national team.
