“To me, that particular Man United player is the best player in Premier League and I always have a dream to play with him…If Chelsea can sign him, I’ll be very happy otherwise I may join Man United in the future just because of him”: Cole Palmer urge Chelsea to sign ONE Man United’s player who’s the best player in Premier League currently
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.”
After Palmer’s explosive start, including a mesmerising four-goal haul in his last game, the social media football community wouldn’t let Roberto’s August claim go unnoticed. One fan quickly countered: “You should know better… Why would you tweet something like this!” Another responded with facts, pointing out: “He scored 12 non-penalty goals last season, more than any of your forwards,” and yet another praised Palmer’s undeniable talent: “He obviously is. He’s a class player.”
