Enzo Maresca hailed Cole Palmer’s “special” display in Saturday’s victory over Brighton, and believes it is the Chelsea star’s grounded attitude that sets him apart from even the best young talents in the game.
Palmer became the first player in Premier League history to score four goals in the first half of a match as he inspired a 4-2 triumph at Stamford Bridge. Remarkably, the 22-year-old could easily have added to that tally, striking the post before half-time and then missing a one-on-one midway through the second half.
