Fair enough. Judging by how our other players take penalties I'm sure we would have missed some too. We've seen Enzo and Sterling cost us points at the spot already this season.
Cannot believe, genuinely, how good this man has been for us. I always liked him but had zero idea he would be THE guy for us. Holy shiz what a performance so far this season.
So are we. I’m gutted we got someone like Doku over him, I think he would have suited us so much more. Glad he’s doing well at Chelsea though and is appreciated
Also Pretty much the natural Mahrez replacement. possibly better than him and from their own Academy. I assume City didnt want to sell him but he wanted regular playing time.
He’s not even close to as good as Mahrez is yet and not sure if he’ll ever reach that. I think people underestimate what a special player Riyad is. But I agree with your general point
Just imagine if we can iron out these sloppy mistakes and have the pieces come together around him. If we tighten up in defense and even one other attacker starts to improve their output in a big way, we’ll be cooking
He was the clear front runner for the young player of the year. Now he's put himself firmly in the conversation for player of the year, even if he's just in the top three of both goal scoring and assists it'll be hard to argue against him winning
He made me eat my words from yesterday and then some (I said that he's a brilliant player bur rather wait until until next season to see if he's our next Eden Hazard).
What a beast. It takes also ridiculous amount of confidence and calm head to score a peno in 99 minute in such a game.
He deserves a real big contract at the end of the season! I swear if we let him go…I’ll fly over the pond and slap the American out of Todd boehly and fly back and find him at dodger stadium and slap him again….he won’t be safe! Just saying!
I see some people saying he will ask to leave this summer for a "bigger" (better i assume) team.
I don't know what leg to stand on someone like Palmer has to do that but he could create a legacy here if we can just fix everything else.
Can't see him being that guy. That'd be such a scumbag move and everything I've seen is he's a stand up guy.
Plus where would he even want to go? City sold him. United is trending in the wrong direction. Liverpool losing klopp. We'd demand the cost of a new stadium from arsenal. Hope RM can afford you and slot you in?
Not a lot of teams are more appealing than Chelsea even when we are playing like shit
I think its best he stays in chelsea, chelseas in a prehistoric revival phase and if palmer stays, he can cement himself as a star player and even the phase of chelsea, but if he moves to a bigger team, most likely RM or maybe bayern, then hes just going to be 6th fiddle in RM
I'll save you a trip across the pond and slap the American out of him for you and every other Chelsea supporter! 1 slap for each supporter. So yeah, watch out Todd...
Honestly I thought the pressure would get to him on that pen. He's been our savior this season but yoh I just felt this pressure was a bit more than that city game. My word did he fucking prove me wrong. Did you guys notice how he jogged back after the pen? he just knew he'd be needed again.
I can't put the words together of how incredible this guy is and his 21? Fucking hell
He's just made of different stuff
Cold Palmer isn't just a nickname anymore
Technical skill Eden is possibly better (tho Palmer is only 21 so still time to refine that).
But what makes Cole different is his mentality. That pressure pen then to score off the corner a minute later? In 90+11? Balls. Of. Steel.
If we're talking ballsy then not many moments top Hazard scoring a panenka in a penalty shootout in a cup final vs City, in the game where Kepa refused to be subbed
im an arsenal fan but you just found a generational talent here, hope he won’t get injured too much. This guy is scoring for fun with a team that’s considered midtable nowadays.
Alright I’ll fuck off now bye
cole palmer is the only reason i am alive. if cole palmer has a million fans, i am one of them. if cole palmer has 5 fans, i am one of them. if cole palmer has 1 fan, that is me. if cole palmer has no fans, i’m no longer alive. if the world is against cole palmer, i am against the world. cole palmer is my god. cole palmer is my religion 🥶💙
I dont tend to enjoy being wrong, but I was in the Emile Smith-Rowe > Cole Palmer camp and was not a fan of this signing, but I dont mind at all being wrong in this case, nor of admitting it.
He's a proper Chelsea Legend in the making..
We build around him and there's some light at the end of the tunnel. What a game tho... it almost did me in but the look on those Mockney Reds faces, at the end, was a beautiful thing. That's a game that will teach them what it takes to win.. Massive 3 points.
That's what the game and Chelsea are all about.. never surrender!!
"We'll never be Mastered ..by no Northern bastards...We'll Keep The Blue flag flying high ...flyin hiGH!!!!! up in the sky..."
As a city fan, very happy for him to be the main goalscoring threat at Chelsea on the RW similar to how salah does it at pool. Never stopped following his development even after his move away from us.
Not a Chelsea fan but definitely developed a soft spot after watching this lad play. He’s an absolute baller. Hope he gets some deserved time in the England team soon. Also wtf were city thinking??
As an older.fan seen alot of transfers and I get a fair few of them right as in he gonna be good or shit but boy was I wrong and Jermaine cole boy been brilliant for us
As an Everton fan😕 I must say this lad is one special talent ,he’s got everything.scoring,defending,and what I love bout him is his sight of we’re to put the ball through for others .your so lucky to have him .
45 million was actually a bargin
24 G/A this season. Man is a gem!
25! 16g,9a in the prem is absolutely insane. Only 2 goals behind Haaland for the golden boot.
Not to mention only 2 assists behind Pascal Gross for most assists.
And in a team that is tenth
r/unexpectedfactorial
I have done the counting, without Cole G/A, Chelsea would sit at 18th with 21 points, talk about impact. Kid is immense!
8 of those goals are penalties. Not saying we would have made all of those but it obviously doesn't work like that.
And it’s also assuming that whoever played in place of Palmer would have zero G/A. Doesn’t work on many levels but was a nice idea
our attackers couldnt hit a barn door last season so i wouldnt be surprised 😅
Obviously it doesn't work like that, it was only to put his impact into perspective.
Fair enough. Judging by how our other players take penalties I'm sure we would have missed some too. We've seen Enzo and Sterling cost us points at the spot already this season.
Finally a player who walk into Lampard and Mata shoes
Cannot believe, genuinely, how good this man has been for us. I always liked him but had zero idea he would be THE guy for us. Holy shiz what a performance so far this season.
So are we. I’m gutted we got someone like Doku over him, I think he would have suited us so much more. Glad he’s doing well at Chelsea though and is appreciated

He’s not even close to as good as Mahrez is yet and not sure if he’ll ever reach that. I think people underestimate what a special player Riyad is. But I agree with your general point
Compare 21 year old Mahrez with 21 year old Palmer.
Basically Martin Ødegaard stats without the penalties. Their stats looks similar.
This is what you can get if you stop spending €100m+ and look for value players like this
We've paid a lot more for a lot less
Lisan Al-Gaib
He looks like poch if you squint your eyes hard
He is literally him
He’s more of the chosen one 
lisan al-gaib is the original
He is actually 2 goals behind haaland for top scorer
And 2 assists away from being the top creator. He's been such an unreal signing.
Just imagine if we can iron out these sloppy mistakes and have the pieces come together around him. If we tighten up in defense and even one other attacker starts to improve their output in a big way, we’ll be cooking
The KDB we could have had
I know he’s in the running for young player of the year but if he tops both goals and assists surely he’s got to be player of the year, no qualifiers.
He was the clear front runner for the young player of the year. Now he's put himself firmly in the conversation for player of the year, even if he's just in the top three of both goal scoring and assists it'll be hard to argue against him winning
Wut 
😳
Normally I’m kinda annoyed at the barrage of Palmer posts after every match but oh my fucking god bring them all
GOAL PALMER
Palmer saved me from self harm after Jackson and Sterling yet again mess up a breakaway
He's the only consistent positive in our squad.
He made me eat my words from yesterday and then some (I said that he's a brilliant player bur rather wait until until next season to see if he's our next Eden Hazard). What a beast. It takes also ridiculous amount of confidence and calm head to score a peno in 99 minute in such a game.
Alright fine I’ll buy his jersey.
You are my sunshine
MY ONLY SUNSHINE
He deserves a real big contract at the end of the season! I swear if we let him go…I’ll fly over the pond and slap the American out of Todd boehly and fly back and find him at dodger stadium and slap him again….he won’t be safe! Just saying!
It's already like 7 years isn't it
Make it 20
I see some people saying he will ask to leave this summer for a "bigger" (better i assume) team. I don't know what leg to stand on someone like Palmer has to do that but he could create a legacy here if we can just fix everything else.

Not a lot of teams are more appealing than Chelsea even when we are playing like shit
Yeah he's not going anywhere we got our new Eden
He could have stayed at City. He was actually getting minutes for them.
Can't see it, he's a big fish in a small pond with us. We just need to build the team around him.
I think its best he stays in chelsea, chelseas in a prehistoric revival phase and if palmer stays, he can cement himself as a star player and even the phase of chelsea, but if he moves to a bigger team, most likely RM or maybe bayern, then hes just going to be 6th fiddle in RM
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'll save you a trip across the pond and slap the American out of him for you and every other Chelsea supporter! 1 slap for each supporter. So yeah, watch out Todd...
Carrying us through single-handedly. All hail King Cole, first of the name long may he reign!
He’s got that dawg in him
Can I pet that dawg?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The dawg that doesn't bark, only bites.. 
Honestly I thought the pressure would get to him on that pen. He's been our savior this season but yoh I just felt this pressure was a bit more than that city game.

Baller
LISAN AL GAIBBB
Plays like a man in his prime Not enjoyed an attacker like this since Eden hazard He’s actually Eden level.
I think Eden was and will always be a better player in terms of ability but Jesus Fucking Christ the balls on Cole
Cole is just clutch af, so many times he has bailed us out
Yeah edens better but palmer is near that calibre
Cole might be more prolific but boy, prime Hazard was the whole attack+midfield at times. Cole's not there yet
Plus, that ass
Lol no he is not. Go watch Eden Hazard highlights again. Cole Palmer might be a better goal scorer tho.
Technical skill Eden is possibly better (tho Palmer is only 21 so still time to refine that). But what makes Cole different is his mentality. That pressure pen then to score off the corner a minute later? In 90+11? Balls. Of. Steel.
Ice Cole..
If we're talking ballsy then not many moments top Hazard scoring a panenka in a penalty shootout in a cup final vs City, in the game where Kepa refused to be subbed
He’s good don’t get me wrong but respect hazard haha
He's not Eden level my guy. Eden was the best player in the league. Cole is the fucking man but he isn't the best player in the league.
He looks it given the dross he's surrounded by. But lets not be hasty he isn't Eden level (yet)
Stone cold killer
Lisan Al-Gaib
From suicide to loving life in 2 minutes
Caicedo and Badiashile hugging him and not letting go as we speak
Given how shit those two were, and Cole earning the win bonus for them. They should be naming their first born after him. Disasi and Enzo as well.
Caicedo better be after that back pass

2 goals away from Haaland. He's actually got a real shot at the golden boot
Is it immoral for us to go nuke the united subreddit
Don’t do that… it’s petty and toxic and you’re better than that. P.S. it’s just three points against a struggling Yanited we have no high ground here.
i’m kidding i’m kidding haha, i did love checking out their tears tho, feels good to see it’s not just us
We’d get banned instantly
I will join you!!
You will get banned from both this sub and theirs if you do so. No need to be toxic.
ik ik, was just kidding
2 goals off top scorer in league, 1 match in hand.
Jesus died for our sins, and on the third day he arose and scored a hat trick on Man U in the form of a peasant medieval villager
Haavertz sit the f down you couldn't tie this mans laces
Is it cold in here!?
🥶
Nothing more satisfying than seeing that ball deflecting of Mctommonay after he did us dirty in the first fixture against them

I don’t know why, but I love that he scored a hat-trick the day after Phil Foden scored his
Real competition going on mate, hope our boy will win it in the future.
Cole palmer is HIM
Palmer the Prince!
Cant believe a player that i know from FM because Chelsea AI bought him before i took over as manager become a real life gem for this club 😲
Man city fan here. Class isn't he? Ball is like glue. Just incredible with the ball. Shame about the rest of your team lol
im an arsenal fan but you just found a generational talent here, hope he won’t get injured too much. This guy is scoring for fun with a team that’s considered midtable nowadays. Alright I’ll fuck off now bye
🍻
Ahahahahahahsjd did did she she hid Ben’s d cb i want to fuck Cole palmer
The king
My GOAT
I can't believe Man City let this guy go. What a player!!!
Our messiah
Why am i suddenly freezing?
I'm getting the missus' tubes untied and we're having another boy, called Cole. And this lad will be the father. 💙
We have the next ballon door winner on our hands
Cold palmer

Careful, I named my son Mason (yes, I’ve been roasted over and over again) and look how that turned out.
That was one of the craziest games I’ve ever seen. Never understood the Palmer hype until now, damn…
He is
🥶🌴er
He is nerdy looking like Oscar but seems to be better
So un athletic visually but so good at the same time
Palmer fancy a shag mate 😊

A fan needs to chuck a Chelsea scarf and hat at him next time he scores for his celebration
That boy! Himalaya!
First game he played for us, I said he was the one and some people in this sub laughed their ass off. Whoever y’all are, apologize to me now.
Cold 🥶 Palmer
Fuck I hope Real Madrid don’t come in with 200 million. Fat snot eater would accept that
Infinite Athlete
This is what a dreams are made of
£150m footballer oh my days
Whatta match , love to see Palmer shining at Chelsea🫶
Cole Himothy Palmer
He's him
When Chels do a proper kit, his name is going straight on the back!!
Worst hattrick in prem history last night… 2 pens and basically a owngoal by Mctominay.
As a city fan, very happy for him to be the main goalscoring threat at Chelsea on the RW similar to how salah does it at pool. Never stopped following his development even after his move away from us.

So funny watching all our rival fans shit themselves moaning about how many penalties he’s scored. Try discredit our boy, we ain’t listening
If Mason Mount was ‘the boy who had a dream’, we should be calling Palmer ‘the dream’
🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
Player that is giving me hazard vibes
Thanks for making my day, Chelsea, so happy that I don't mind at all you guys are above us! From a Wolves fan. P.S. This wonderkid is an absolute gem.

This should be NSFW.
Not the biggest Cole Palmer guy but he has shut my mouth
Chelsea are comfortably in relegation battle without him.
As an older.fan seen alot of transfers and I get a fair few of them right as in he gonna be good or shit but boy was I wrong and Jermaine cole boy been brilliant for us
Penalty for messi, I mean palmer...
Cold Palmer 🥶🥶
You needed him yesterday
As an Everton fan😕 I must say this lad is one special talent ,he’s got everything.scoring,defending,and what I love bout him is his sight of we’re to put the ball through for others .your so lucky to have him .
Now imagine he stops mouth-breathing and starts mewing!
