Frank Lampard and Palmer are both goalscorers they can find the net at any time during a game' Former Chelsea star Geremi's Cole Palmer comparison

"When former Chelsea midfielder Geremi looks at the current Blues side, he sees something familiar in one of the best young Stamford Bridge talents. Frank Lampard and Cole Palmer are both goalscorers, the ex-Cameroon international tells FourFourTwo. They can score at any time during the game. When you look at the way Frank used to play his role, he was a No.8, a player who would go from box to box. Palmer is more of an attacking player, but he has a lot of technical quality."

"Chelsea were unfancied against an in-form Paris Saint-Germain side fresh from their 5-0 thumping of Inter in the Champions League final, but Palmer would outshine future Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele, scoring an opener when he calmly passed the ball into the corner from the edge of the box, as cool as you like. Eight minutes later, he found the net again, before providing the clever through ball for Joao Pedro to score a third. Palmer had almost single-handedly destroyed the champions of Europe, easing to a 3-0 victory in the newly expanded tournament."

Cole Palmer shows strong goalscoring instincts and technical ability comparable to a Frank Lampard–style influence in midfield and attack. Lampard operated as a box-to-box No.8, while Palmer functions more as an attacking player with significant technical quality. Palmer produced a decisive Club World Cup final performance, scoring twice and creating a third with a through ball to Joao Pedro, producing a 3-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain. That display followed a Player of the Match performance in the Conference League final, reinforcing Palmer's growing impact and finishing reliability for Chelsea.
