Chelsea fans may not be happy with the team's performances this season, but they are delighted to see their summer signing Cole Palmer shine for them. The young English attacker has shown his quality with Chelsea in his debut season and is seen as one of the most crucial players in the squad. Palmer barely played under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, but now he has blossomed into a great player. Due to his performances with Chelsea this season, the English player has increased his market value, and the increase is the most significant of any Premier League player from the start of this season.

Palmer continued to shine for Chelsea over the weekend as he grabbed a brace in Chelsea's 2-2 draw against Burnley. Despite his brace, Palmer was not happy about the result for the team. Palmer said, "On a personal level, I’m pleased to have scored two goals, but if you don’t get the three points, it doesn’t mean much. I want to be scoring goals that help us to wins first and foremost."
Palmer continues as he said, "It’s a similar story if we are being honest. We have to take responsibility and improve on this as players. We fashioned many chances but couldn’t put them away and at the other end, there were times where we were sloppy in our defensive work. It’s just really disappointing not to win the game.I think we switched off too many times all over the pitch, especially for their goals. That can’t happen and if we are going to improve as a team, we need to find some consistency. Overall we need to sharpen up in both boxes. We need to be solid in defense and become more clinical at the other end."
