Chelsea have just announced the club’s Men’s Player of the Year award and it’s one of the biggest turnarounds in history.
Despite all the difficulties, Malang Sarr, who trained Trained with the reserve team all season, was chosen as the leader of the performers club…..no, we were just kidding. The winner is of course Cole Palmer. Can we predict this from November?
He received an award from Conor Gallagher, which is very fitting because the midfield industry has done so much to create a platform for allowing Palmer to play well this season.
The numbers are crazy. We’ve all heard them before, but they bear repeating now.
After arriving on the final day (to a mixed reaction), the 22-year-old has now scored an insane total of 37 goals and assists in all. competitions. Honestly, if you told us he’d be 20 we’d call it a great debut season.
Which of course led to him being called up training for his first England squad and much more to come. according to.
In the space of nine months, he went from a player who looked a bit like a wasted talent on the Man City bench to a key figure at Chelsea and a player with potential to start at the Euros. this summer. This award is just the beginning.
Interestingly, things can only get worse for Palmer from here. Of course he can still improve as a player, and I hope he has a team around him that is closer to his level. But can he have another season in front of goal like this?
It seems unlikely, but then again, they’ve probably been saying that about Frank Lampard, year after year.
The sky’s the limit for Cole, we’d just like to say, Don’t get used to those meaningless numbers. .
