Maresca Names Cole Palmer the Strongest Player at Chelsea
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has hailed Cole Palmer as the strongest player in his squad right now.
Despite struggling with a dip in form, the England international continues to push himself harder in training. Palmer, who had an impressive first 18 months at Chelsea after joining from Manchester City, is currently going through a rough patch, failing to score or assist in his last six games.
Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Southampton, Maresca praised the 22-year-old’s work ethic.
“When things aren’t going well for him, he trains even harder! I love that,” Maresca said, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano. He also revealed that Palmer topped Chelsea’s recent physical tests.
“Every six or seven months, we do a physical test. We did one in pre-season and another last week. He was the strongest in the squad.” Palmer will now be aiming to get back on the scoresheet when Chelsea face Southampton at Stamford Bridge.
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
