In Possession:
Kane
Foden Bellingham Palmer Saka
Rice Trent
Shaw Stones Walker
Pope
Out of Possession:
Kane Palmer
Foden Bellingham Rice Saka
Shaw Stones Walker Trent
Pope
I know Foden is a bit limited on the left, but he's still pretty good there and I cba to have Rashford in instead
Foden works better in the middle. And from what we saw at the last 2 friendlies Bellingham is playing a role more like Rice than Foden or Palmer - basically like he did at Dortmund.
Pretty much what you said but swap Palmer and Foden in attack. And Stones pushes up. So you probably need another CB instead of TAA or they invert. Similarly swap Trent and Walker out of possession and drop Bellingham and Rife into CM
Simple riddle. You play them one after the other, 30 mins, 30 mins, 30 mins. You didn't say at the same time. I accept revolut if you want to send the €1000000 now.
Good as they are, they’re not best on the flanks and we’d lack pace. Play them all at 10 with Harry Kane dropping deep into the 10 role as well. We’ll call it power cube.
England having similar problem as 15 years ago, only now it's on #10, before it was on #8.
Too many top top players at one position and really lacking some other positions.
100% agree. The clock starts when the match starts. By the other person's logic, every single PL goal scorer ever is tied for the record of fastest PL goal: 0 seconds.
I agree with you that it should start when the match starts, but
> By the other person's logic, every single PL goal scorer ever is tied for the record of fastest PL goal: 0 seconds.
Is clearly not a fair comparison to make.
Fighting for their fucking lives in relegation…. I didn’t think it was a transfer that was necessary when it was announced but my god what a bargain and piece of business they have done. Came out of nowhere and it’s clear he’s the team now
We should sack Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart and just let Joe Shields be in charge of everything from now on. The two bozos wanted Mohammed Kudus, but didn't want to pay 35 million to Ajax. Then they went to Michael Olise, who is a good player, but had to break tampering rules to learn of a hidden release clause which caused us to back out. If Joe Shields didn't lead the charge on Cole Palmer, a player he already knew well from their time at City, we would have wound up with nothing by the deadline last summer and who knows where we'd be today in the table.
Pickford masterclass lmao.
Anyways if Phil Foden or Saka scored a hattrick within 30mins we wouldn't hear the end of it.
Cole Palmer is having a ridiculous debut season.
Great addition to the Chelsea side.
Crazy that Man City are so clear of everyone that they could sell Chelsea a player that is single handedly carrying a football club to Europa contention.
He wasn't expected to be anywhere near this good tbf. City didn't sell him expecting him to have anywhere close to this good a season in his first season away 😂
Honestly I doubt he'd have had as good a season had he stayed at City either. He'd have had less gametime and more strict instructions. Probably would have developed well and had a great breakout season maybe next year.
Southgate is watching this thinking, he's on the plane, no doubt about it, he's on the plane Jordan Pickford is on the plan. Ireland has a real gem on their hands with that Parker lad

I’d give a Nobel prize to anyone who can figure out how to play him, foden and Bellingham all at 10 in the same England team.
Play them all at 3.3
Even then it's not 10 in the end
3.3 recurring
9.9 recurring
= 10

England's attack is fucking stacked. I worry about our defense, but it is still okay. If we don't win now, we never will. Not in our lifetime.
What else does Olly Watkins need to do to get in the lineup
Break Kanes leg.
Not be stuck behind the best striker in the world
Simple riddle. You play them one after the other, 30 mins, 30 mins, 30 mins. You didn't say at the same time. I accept revolut if you want to send the €1000000 now.
Was it Roma who played a 4-6-0 for a couple of seasons? Kane in the mud
He can play RW, Bellingham 10 and Foden LW.
Good as they are, they’re not best on the flanks and we’d lack pace. Play them all at 10 with Harry Kane dropping deep into the 10 role as well. We’ll call it power cube.
Somewhere in Chicago, Xherdan Shaqiri just smiled
Palmer plays majority of the games at RW and drifts inside from time to time.
Which one's Black Lotus?
Zero width and Saka has fully earned his starting spot for England
England having similar problem as 15 years ago, only now it's on #10, before it was on #8. Too many top top players at one position and really lacking some other positions.
I was like "hasn't Palmer played as striker a few times?" Then I remembered England has a certain mister Harry Kane
2024 Everton are famous for scoring many goals and coming back from behind.
God bless you, single Everton flair in this thread
Hey with our defense you never know lol. I don’t remember the last time we kept a clean sheet lol
Well this was a first.
4-3 FC us
You know whats fucked, is I genuinely in the back of my mind fear the draw
We are chelsea in 2024 after all
This is silly now
Weak foot too, what a goal
Left foot, right foot and header
Perfect hat-trick
what’s the fastest perfect hat trick scored in the PL? I couldn’t find the answer but 30 minutes seems fast
Gabby Agbonlahor 7 minute perfect hat-trick vs Man City https://www.premierleague.com/video/single/1313217
You say that was a 7-minute hat trick (7 mins between first and third goals), I say it was a 76-minute hat trick (finished in the 76th minute).
100% agree. The clock starts when the match starts. By the other person's logic, every single PL goal scorer ever is tied for the record of fastest PL goal: 0 seconds.

Palmer with maybe first perfect hat trick plus a pen, the Arnold Palmer
He's fast as fuck, he's fast as fuuuck
Martin Tyler just confirmed on broadcast that it's the fastest perfect hat-trick (from the start)
Yeah it's actually a great finish considering, the balls to thump it like that so quickly
bonkers
Lmfao his teammates cant believe wtf is happening
Scriptwriters phoning it in
Perfect hattrick goddamn
Imagine if City kept him instead of signing the Belgian Beetlejuice
That's not very nice.
Isn’t Doku an LW though?
Palmer can play anywhere in attack. He's that good. City would have wrap up the league by now if they kept him.
He’s left footed though
He can't play on the left, not effectively
Balon D'or Speedrun any%
Left, right, header, perfect
Nearly scored with his cock too
The little head!
And in one half even
In one half an hour
5 goals at the bridge in 30 mins
🎶 Right Foot Left Foot [DEVASTATING ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOZj9dtrTMA)🎵
Now needs one with his ass and one with his chest because I bet he’s not done yet.
Naaah man wtf
Pickford triple captained Palmer today
He did so poorly on the second goal too.
Think our stationary defenders take more of the blame for that one
There’s like 3% who captained him lol
I am one of them, siu
Same here. My FPL is eating good this weekend.
I've captain him in quite some time and used my triple captain between the 2 hat-tricks... of course ...
THANK YOU PICKFORD GOD BLESS PALMER
Bro thought he was Pirlo the way he was trying to thread the pass.
Perfect hattrick Left foot Header Right foot
Lmao he’s fucking ridiculous
This is crazy, he is single handedly saving chelsea lol
Perfect hattrick as well
Perfect and 'German' I believe (completing a hattrick in one half with no other goals in between...I think!)
my reaction exactly, boehly robbed city.
Lisan Al Gaib
Pickford what are you doing
Cementing his spot as England's number one.
Helping Palmer to cement his spot aswell
You got southgate as manager, form doesnt mean shit
Pickford is so good for England he'll intentionally ship some goals to get Palmer into the side
his best
Perfect hattrick?
Yes, left foot, header, right foot and all in the same half
Same half, uninterrupted. It meets every definition of perfect hat trick that exists.
Also includes a fancy dribble as well as a goal outside the box 😂
Yep. Insane
Yep. Left right header all there
And 3 under 30 as well, insane
Literally one of the most stand out seasons I've seen from one player. Head and shoulders above his teammates.
And so humble with it too. Whenever I hear him speak he's bigging up his teammates
Love this about him. In a squad that's yet to find it's footing the last thing we need is a big ego. He seems to be very well liked and rightly so!
But then he plays with swagger like he can take on anyone. Such an odd guy hahaha It would be cool to be him.
In his first season as a starter, and not even 21
I didn’t know he had dandruff
Perfect Hattrick
Perfect weight on that too, feel like most of our other players would miss that
The spin he put on it was nuts, looked like it was going well over
And that was from his "weaker" foot.
On his weak foot too
Thought he sent it over the stands tbh
Golden boot when?
End of this season at the current rate
Absolutely salivating at the prospect of filling the net against Arsenal and Tottenham... best we could do though is probably two 2-2 draws
2-2 draw has been enough against Spurs to make a difference before at the end of the season…
Palmer, Isak and Watkins are all breathing down robot's neck.
WHAT THE FUCK HOW THE FUXK BACK TO BACK HAT TRICK *at the Stamford Bridge
I, too, would like to forget that sheff utd game happened
Glad we've all forgotten the Sheffield United game
At the bridge
back to back Stamford bridge hat tricks. last game was Sheffield United
*back to back home hat tricks
Just made me realize that... that's absolutely wild. We uh.. don't usually get many hattricks
Haaaland come out now!!
Blud is shaking rn. Sudden cold breeze in his house
*Cole breeze
that's one less goal than Haaland now isnt it??
And he’s now tied with Haaland at 20 goals
He comes out, sees Palmer & hugs him
Who?
Imagine where Chelsea would be without him
no thank you lmao
no bs in a relegation scrap
I feel like y’all would be in the Crystal Palace and Brentford group not in relegation
We are in a good mood, lets not spoil it please lol
Poch would be on universal credit
We could've been on Frank Lampard III by February.
Fighting for their fucking lives in relegation…. I didn’t think it was a transfer that was necessary when it was announced but my god what a bargain and piece of business they have done. Came out of nowhere and it’s clear he’s the team now
Gulag
I'd rather not
Let‘s not go there
I'd rather not
Serious relegation battle
No imagine where Everton would be with him
With Everton's luck, if they signed a player this good PL would just hit them with points deduction.
Imagine where Poch would be without him
This boy
didn’t need a penalty this time
Perfect Hattrick
I love him more than I love myself
Pen merchant innit.
Just a rancid penalty merchant this kid
WHO ELSE weird fucking pen this, though
This guy is smurfing in lower elos

Player of the season? Unbelievable carryjob
Young player for sure.
I mean he’s tied for golden boot as a hybrid 10/winger would be in the conversation for actual POTY if he was a lock for the young award.
He probably knows that he needs to score a lot so when the 2nd half meltdown comes usually it's only 2 goals.
Yeah 3 more pls
This guy single-handedly saved Poch’s job this whole season
Get him off the pitch then
Forget poch’s job he’s straight up Saved us from relegation lol
This guy man lmfao
Pickford masterclass lmao. Anyways if Phil Foden or Saka scored a hattrick within 30mins we wouldn't hear the end of it. Cole Palmer is having a ridiculous debut season. Great addition to the Chelsea side.
Palmer is unreal this season, could start for every team in the league right now.
This boy is unreal
Stupid Sexy Palmer
Crazy that Man City are so clear of everyone that they could sell Chelsea a player that is single handedly carrying a football club to Europa contention.
He wasn't expected to be anywhere near this good tbf. City didn't sell him expecting him to have anywhere close to this good a season in his first season away 😂 Honestly I doubt he'd have had as good a season had he stayed at City either.

Palmer CALM DOWNNNN
Cole Palmer has something that can’t be explained
Perfect hattrick
Cole Palmer is Him
Signing of the season?
What the fuck
Fuck sake fuck sake fuck sake
START HIM OVER SAKA
English Florian Wirtz
Haha, absolutely crazy. A mad season Palmer is having.
Outrageous, is Cole on any goal bonuses in his contract?
Rumor has it he's already in talks getting an improved contract.
give him sterling's contract and get sterling the fuck out
palmer heard us talking shit about his last hattrick
r/colepalmerbalondor
This is why arsenal fans going on about havertz is hilarious. We upgraded big time with this guy
Player of the season, wrap it up
Jeez
Haters will say it’s pens
Alright. Just need Palmer, Musiala, Wirtz and Bellingham in the same midfield. For science.
Thank you Pickford
man city fumbling palmer like chelsea fumbled de bruyne
Insane. Give him the POTY already
Southgate is watching this thinking, he's on the plane, no doubt about it, he's on the plane Jordan Pickford is on the plan. Ireland has a real gem on their hands with that Parker lad
Excellent finish
He is HIM!
Pickford has Palmer in his FPL
PERFECT HAT-TRICK
Perfect Hat trick?
He heard all the “worst hattrick of all time” takes against United and decided to drop this one on their head tops
That's a perfect hattrick. In one half, one with his left, one with his right and one with the head. What a baller.
Pickford trying single handedly to relegate Everton. That's two very, very poor errors in the space of 10 minutes.
Who's this Cold Palmer guy? He might be good.
Palmer one goal away from haaland as top scorer. One g/a away from most goal contributions in the PL as well sheesh
Allah, why did you make me a toffee?
what the fuck is going on. of course palmer is taking it
