Chelsea’s Cole Palmer has started the new season as he finished the last, notching six goals already, and is well on his way to proving one doubter wrong
Cole Palmer has left Alejandro Garnacho ’s brother feeling embarrassed after his prediction that the Chelsea star wouldn’t score 10 non-penalty league goals this season looks set to be proved wrong. The English forward’s dynamic start to the Premier League season - highlighted by a sensational quadruple against Brighton - has seen him rack up six goals and four assists.
Roberto, brother to Manchester United’s Garnacho - who has had a modest start to the season with just one league goal and an assist - publicly doubted Palmer following Chelsea's 2-0 loss to Manchester City on the opening day of the season as he Tweeted: "Cole Palmer isn't hitting 10 goals without penalties."ALSO READ: The elephant in the room with Van Nistelrooy must be addressed
Roberto responded to those who questioned his judgement, affirming that he does indeed rate Palmer highly. However, he pointed out that the nine penalties Palmer scored last season were crucial to his success, reports the Mirror. Despite an initial impression that Maresca's team wouldn't pose much of a threat this season, a swift turnaround led by the outstanding Palmer has seen them emerge as a formidable force in the league.
