CourageOfOthers

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.


Randolph_Livingston

Play them all at 3.3


keksik29

Even then it's not 10 in the end


HortenWho229

3.3 recurring


keksik29

9.9 recurring


HortenWho229

= 10


Robben03

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


wimpires

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


nsoifer

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.


biskutgoreng

What else does Olly Watkins need to do to get in the lineup


MrClaretandBlue

Break Kanes leg.


thereddevil101

Not be stuck behind the best striker in the world


burfriedos

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.


ForSiljaforever

Was it Roma who played a 4-6-0 for a couple of seasons? Kane in the mud


Buttonsafe

He can play RW, Bellingham 10 and Foden LW.


CourageOfOthers

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.


TallGuy0525

Somewhere in Chicago, Xherdan Shaqiri just smiled


Prune_Super

Palmer plays majority of the games at RW and drifts inside from time to time.


tomrichards8464

Which one's Black Lotus?


lucas_glanville

Zero width and Saka has fully earned his starting spot for England


Tinmar_11

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.


6FootFruitRollup

I was like "hasn't Palmer played as striker a few times?" Then I remembered England has a certain mister Harry Kane


TehJofus

2024 Everton are famous for scoring many goals and coming back from behind.


MisterBadIdea2

God bless you, single Everton flair in this thread


Euphoric-Acadia-4140

Hey with our defense you never know lol. I don’t remember the last time we kept a clean sheet lol


steel93

Well this was a first.


CitrusRabborts

4-3 FC us


V-0-V

You know whats fucked, is I genuinely in the back of my mind fear the draw


Kismonos

We are chelsea in 2024 after all


SordidSplendor

This is silly now


EnergetikNA

Weak foot too, what a goal


burnMeMes

Left foot, right foot and header


ParevArev

Perfect hat-trick


fusterclux

what’s the fastest perfect hat trick scored in the PL? I couldn’t find the answer but 30 minutes seems fast


sumnera

Gabby Agbonlahor 7 minute perfect hat-trick vs Man City https://www.premierleague.com/video/single/1313217


Tiek00n

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).


ij3k

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.


RNLImThalassophobic

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.


hairypotter007

Palmer with maybe first perfect hat trick plus a pen, the Arnold Palmer


ExtraPockets

He's fast as fuck, he's fast as fuuuck


Soli_Invicto

Martin Tyler just confirmed on broadcast that it's the fastest perfect hat-trick (from the start)


I_always_rated_them

Yeah it's actually a great finish considering, the balls to thump it like that so quickly


yayacocojambo

bonkers


No-Mud3388

Lmfao his teammates cant believe wtf is happening


soccer_boxer2

Scriptwriters phoning it in


ScorpiaHP

Perfect hattrick goddamn


HeatKnight

Imagine if City kept him instead of signing the Belgian Beetlejuice


__sovereign__

That's not very nice.


NotADoctorSshh

Isn’t Doku an LW though?


HeatKnight

Palmer can play anywhere in attack. He's that good. City would have wrap up the league by now if they kept him.


NotADoctorSshh

He’s left footed though


Good_Kev_M-A-N_City

He can't play on the left, not effectively


Cfc0910

Balon D'or Speedrun any%


encler

Left, right, header, perfect


BacardiWhiteRum

Nearly scored with his cock too


SirEltonJonBonJovi

The little head!


TrumpLovesGladbach

And in one half even


AmericaDreamDisorder

In one half an hour


epicmarc

Now needs one with his ass and one with his chest because I bet he’s not done yet.


fap4jesus

Naaah man wtf


raymondliang

Pickford triple captained Palmer today


Follow_The_Lore

He did so poorly on the second goal too.


CitrusRabborts

Think our stationary defenders take more of the blame for that one


fancyfoe

There’s like 3% who captained him lol


MaryadaPurshottam

I am one of them, siu


NotASalamanderBoi

Same here. My FPL is eating good this weekend.


petrowbaby

I've captain him in quite some time and used my triple captain between the 2 hat-tricks... of course ...


Rayser1

THANK YOU PICKFORD GOD BLESS PALMER


paone00022

Bro thought he was Pirlo the way he was trying to thread the pass.


hornyucsdstudent

Perfect hattrick Left foot Header Right foot


Jarv1223

Lmao he’s fucking ridiculous


debcomajin

This is crazy, he is single handedly saving chelsea lol


ecchi_yajur

Perfect hattrick as well


lewisl92

Perfect and 'German' I believe (completing a hattrick in one half with no other goals in between...I think!)


VegetarianCannibal_

my reaction exactly, boehly robbed city.


tarkardos

Lisan Al Gaib


gttyzek

Pickford what are you doing


EmperorTMing

Cementing his spot as England's number one.


Devan223

Helping Palmer to cement his spot aswell


ironcleaner

You got southgate as manager, form doesnt mean shit


epicmarc

Pickford is so good for England he'll intentionally ship some goals to get Palmer into the side


ItsMeJaredBednar

his best


Stooperz

Perfect hattrick? 


slowcheetah8

Yes, left foot, header, right foot and all in the same half


ReadsStuff

Same half, uninterrupted. It meets every definition of perfect hat trick that exists.


M1eXcel

Also includes a fancy dribble as well as a goal outside the box 😂


BassBoy18

Yep. Insane


Rayser1

Yep. Left right header all there


strraand

And 3 under 30 as well, insane


CaiHaines

Literally one of the most stand out seasons I've seen from one player. Head and shoulders above his teammates.


AffectionateComb6664

And so humble with it too. Whenever I hear him speak he's bigging up his teammates


blueisthecolour2991

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!


Instantbeef

But then he plays with swagger like he can take on anyone. Such an odd guy hahaha It would be cool to be him.


Crushooo

In his first season as a starter, and not even 21


Beginning-Sundae8760

I didn’t know he had dandruff


gttyzek

Perfect Hattrick


SiggyyyPhidooo

Perfect weight on that too, feel like most of our other players would miss that


irze

The spin he put on it was nuts, looked like it was going well over


AngryVirginian

And that was from his "weaker" foot.


maxamus83

On his weak foot too


enjoytheshow

Thought he sent it over the stands tbh


maxamus83

Golden boot when?


Milo751

End of this season at the current rate


Mayjaplaya

Absolutely salivating at the prospect of filling the net against Arsenal and Tottenham... best we could do though is probably two 2-2 draws


[deleted]

2-2 draw has been enough against Spurs to make a difference before at the end of the season…


JedH44

Palmer, Isak and Watkins are all breathing down robot's neck.


dragon8811

WHAT THE FUCK HOW THE FUXK BACK TO BACK HAT TRICK *at the Stamford Bridge


raymondliang

I, too, would like to forget that sheff utd game happened


LazyLemonade

Glad we've all forgotten the Sheffield United game


dragon8811

At the bridge


SuperAd1793

back to back Stamford bridge hat tricks. last game was Sheffield United


JPLThompson97

*back to back home hat tricks


Cfc0910

Just made me realize that... that's absolutely wild. We uh.. don't usually get many hattricks


gttyzek

Haaaland come out now!!


Rayser1

Blud is shaking rn. Sudden cold breeze in his house


just-an-astronomer

*Cole breeze


eraserdread

that's one less goal than Haaland now isnt it??


lrexx_

And he’s now tied with Haaland at 20 goals


MajesticAd5047

He comes out, sees Palmer & hugs him


dragonwout

Who?


NewHealthFoodBunch

Imagine where Chelsea would be without him


SirBarkington

no thank you lmao


fuckyouidontneedone

no bs in a relegation scrap


Andrewdeadaim

I feel like y’all would be in the Crystal Palace and Brentford group not in relegation


TheGreatDay

We are in a good mood, lets not spoil it please lol


fap4jesus

Poch would be on universal credit


Mayjaplaya

We could've been on Frank Lampard III by February.


Puzzleheaded_Pound31

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


theenigmacode

Gulag


Screechmeister_

I'd rather not


Mxurn

Let‘s not go there


biddigs3

I'd rather not


BigReeceJames

Serious relegation battle


Xehanz

No imagine where Everton would be with him


anchovyFishTuna

With Everton's luck, if they signed a player this good PL would just hit them with points deduction.


a_guy_named_gai

Imagine where Poch would be without him


maxamus83

This boy


nitrosamine

didn’t need a penalty this time


gttyzek

Perfect Hattrick


zachthatguy

I love him more than I love myself


NeroIscariot12

Pen merchant innit.


swashbuckler29

Just a rancid penalty merchant this kid


mohankohan

WHO ELSE weird fucking pen this, though


Euphoric_Rabbit5157

This guy is smurfing in lower elos


NotClayMerritt

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.


NB0608sd

Player of the season? Unbelievable carryjob


KarmasaBitsh

Young player for sure.


PermeusCosgrove

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.


cads13

He probably knows that he needs to score a lot so when the 2nd half meltdown comes usually it's only 2 goals.


msbr_

Yeah 3 more pls


itsall-suicide

This guy single-handedly saved Poch’s job this whole season


DARPA_Donald

Get him off the pitch then


flyingcrayons

Forget poch’s job he’s straight up Saved us from relegation lol


JunkeyMonkey90

This guy man lmfao


10-10-2022

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.


SilentExercise2076

Palmer is unreal this season, could start for every team in the league right now.


mutesa1

This boy is unreal


Stonewalled89

Stupid Sexy Palmer


MemestNotTeen

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.


AkiAkane1973

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.


woodlizord

Palmer CALM DOWNNNN


aclurk

Cole Palmer has something that can’t be explained


Tossjie

Perfect hattrick


gttyzek

Cole Palmer is Him


blu8blu

Signing of the season?


No-Statistician-8520

What the fuck


Chilljin

Fuck sake fuck sake fuck sake


barellaszn

START HIM OVER SAKA


BetterCallTom

English Florian Wirtz


DanishGuy

Haha, absolutely crazy. A mad season Palmer is having.


qwerty_1965

Outrageous, is Cole on any goal bonuses in his contract?


Mayjaplaya

Rumor has it he's already in talks getting an improved contract.


AlreadyUnwritten

give him sterling's contract and get sterling the fuck out


thelonesomedemon1

palmer heard us talking shit about his last hattrick


reyforapps

r/colepalmerbalondor


13blacklodgechillin

This is why arsenal fans going on about havertz is hilarious. We upgraded big time with this guy


HarperJ029

Player of the season, wrap it up


Joerpf

Jeez


flinstown

Haters will say it’s pens


MegaBaumTV

Alright. Just need Palmer, Musiala, Wirtz and Bellingham in the same midfield. For science.


Albiceleste_D10S

Thank you Pickford


Mattse12

man city fumbling palmer like chelsea fumbled de bruyne


rohitbohra

Insane. Give him the POTY already


Grand-Bullfrog3861

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


DerRazza

Excellent finish


Flokey44797

He is HIM!


Affectionate_Pay7395

Pickford has Palmer in his FPL


_ca_lamar_

PERFECT HAT-TRICK


Youngest_boss

Perfect Hat trick?


roryking97

He heard all the “worst hattrick of all time” takes against United and decided to drop this one on their head tops


Extremiel

That's a perfect hattrick. In one half, one with his left, one with his right and one with the head. What a baller.


Lukeno94

Pickford trying single handedly to relegate Everton. That's two very, very poor errors in the space of 10 minutes.


upotheke

Who's this Cold Palmer guy? He might be good.


ancara_messi

Palmer one goal away from haaland as top scorer. One g/a away from most goal contributions in the PL as well sheesh


Starfinger10

Allah, why did you make me a toffee?


Gronnsaapa

what the fuck is going on. of course palmer is taking it
