A sixth-place finish (or even maybe fifth) in the Premier League and a string of victories over the last few weeks have not done much to cheer Chelsea fans and change their minds about the Blues’ disappointing season. The club’s executives are facing a lot of and absolutely deserved criticism, but there is one thing that needs to be done to them, and that is the signing of Cole Palmer last summer.##NAJAVA_MECA_8109519##It can be said without a doubt that the super-talented footballer is the best thing that has happened to Chelsea and its fans in the past year. The Blues took advantage of the fact that Pep Guardiola wasn’t ready to bet on Palmer last summer. Although it was unsportsmanlike to be one of the most talented players on the ‘island’, if he had stayed at the Etihad Palmer would have had to look for a way to the right opportunity from the role of a reserve player. This way, just like Chelsea, he made the right decision. The Blues set aside 47,000,000 euros for compensation, although they certainly did not believe that the young footballer would explode in this way.Premier League Young Player of the Season .Thank you everyone for making this possible 🥶🙏#Cfc #ColePalmer pic.twitter.com/8GSfTXTGzQ— Cole Palmer (@ColePalmer_0) May 17, 2024 Palmer has scored 22 Premier League goals and provided 10 assists, earning him the competition’s Young Player of the Season award today. Many believe that it would not be unfair if he was generally declared the best in the league, but that would certainly be met with heated comments. First of all, because of Chelsea’s ranking in the table, which during the season was even worse than the current one.But Palmer was consistently good, scoring goals in all competitions in which he played. He has a total of 27 goals and 14 assists on his account. The young footballer is the first Chelsea player to win the award for the best young player in the Premier League since Eden Hazard in the 2013/14 season.📣 Introducing your @Hublot Young Player of the Season…🔵 Cole Palmer 🔵#PLAwards | @ChelseaFC pic.twitter.com/fd8vBgMZaa— Premier League (@premierleague) May 17, 2024 Many legendary aces, such as Alan Shearer, regard Palmer as one of the most important players of the entire season.”A phenomenal talent, the body language says everything about his game looks quite easy. The control of the ball and his style of play, he’s just amazing – brilliant,” says Shearer.How lethal he was is also shown by the fact that he equaled the club record with Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard with 16 goals scored in the matches the Blues played at their Stamford Bridge. The four goals against Everton and the hat-trick in the win over Manchester United are especially memorable.Young Player of the season .
