Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has heaped praise on Cole Palmer following his stellar performance against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League.
The Blues continued their fine start to the Premier League campaign with a 4-2 win over Brighton & Hove Albion at home. Palmer stole the headlines, scoring all four goals in the opening half.
The Englishman also hit the woodwork in the game and had one goal ruled out. Speaking after the game, Maresca was delighted with the showing from the former Manchester City graduate.
He said: “He is a special guy.A top player. The important thing, today in football, young players change very quick. They score one goal and they think they are already… but Cole has not changed after many goals and assists.”
Chelsea have moved to fourth in the table with the resounding victory over the Seagulls and they are now within two points off Liverpool, who are at the top of the league standings.
The club will now face Gent in the Europa Conference League in midweek before taking on Nottingham Forest in the league at home before the international break.
