Cole Palmer's return to form was pivotal in Chelsea's 3-1 victory over Premier League champions Liverpool, helping the team fight for a top-five finish. After an 18-game goal drought, Palmer's impressive performance included contributions to all three goals, reaffirming his importance to Chelsea's ambitions. Despite recent struggles, he maintained confidence and focus, unaffected by outside opinions. His penalty in stoppage time marked his comeback, underlining his talent and resilience as Chelsea aims to return to elite European competition.
His dip in form has become a widespread topic of conversation, but he insists his own feelings and attitude have never changed along with his refusal to study any social media opinions.
Palmer was involved in all three goals, with a run through the centre before sending a sweeping pass out to Pedro Neto to set up Enzo Fernandez's third-minute opener.
But when Chelsea and head coach Enzo Maresca needed him, Palmer was the inspiration behind their 3-1 win against newly crowned Premier League champions Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.
Palmer's dry spell ended with almost the last kick of the game, a penalty in the sixth minute of added time, and dispatched with confidence to end that worry.
