Cole Palmer has revealed that he is “loving life” at Chelsea. This young and talented player has expressed his happiness and eagerness about being part of the Chelsea team through club’s official website.
Cole transferred from Manchester City due to his lack of game time as a first team player to Chelsea and has been a revelation for them so far.
This young and talented 21 year old footballer has shown very impressive performances this season for the Blues, scoring 12 goals and providing with 10 assists in 33 appearances across all competitions and has been a standout performer in a very troublesome season for Chelsea.
After switching clubs in summer, he also made his debut for the England senior team at Wembley in a 2-0 win against Malta in November.
In his debut season for the Blues, the England international has proven to be a very valuable asset for Mauricio Pochettino’s team, showing very significant and positive growth in his career.
Speaking to the club’s official website on his time at Chelsea so far Palmer said,
‘I’ve definitely improved as a player coming here,’ the summer signing from Manchester City said of his time at Chelsea.
‘I just felt [in the summer] like I was ready to play football week in, week out and that’s what I’m doing here at Chelsea.
‘The manager has definitely helped me, he’s a top manager and a top person. He speaks to you about anything, like family issues. I think if he knows what’s going on off the pitch, it can affect how he is with you on the pitch. He’s really great at that.
‘He’s given me the freedom to play my stuff and I like it when he frees you because I feel I can express myself on the pitch more.
‘I’m loving it. Every day he’s talking to you about different things, not just football things but just life generally as well. He’s great at making you feel good and he’s always trying to get the best out of you.’
Palmer will eagerly be wanting to contribute more goals and assists when Chelsea takes on Newcastle United in a very important match at Stamford Bridge on Monday night with hopes of narrowing the point difference to the European spots.
