Maresca Calls Palmer a Top Player and Urges Him to Keep Giving His Best
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has openly praised Cole Palmer, calling him the best player in the team. However, he wants the young star to show more drive right from the start of games. Palmer had earlier admitted he was “bored” during the UEFA Europa Conference League final against Real Betis, saying he was tired of passing the ball backwards and sideways.
Despite Chelsea conceding early in that game, Palmer stepped up with two key assists, helping the Blues to a 4-1 win. In their recent Club World Cup opener against LAFC, Palmer played seven passes into the final third and created a chance, though he didn’t get on the scoresheet.
Speaking after that match, Maresca said, “This is the version of Cole we love to see. After the Conference League final, he said he got bored and decided to change the game—and he did. “I told him the next day, ‘Why wait so long? Why not start like that from the first minute? Against LAFC, he did just that. He played the way we’ve been asking. Cole is a top player, and when he performs like this, we’re very happy. Hopefully he keeps it up.”
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf speaks on recent league matches and names two clubs that can really challenge Arsenal this season, Manchester City and Chelsea.
During a recent interview when speaking about Arsenal, he shared “They are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it. They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.”
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
