Enzo Maresca makes sensational Cole Palmer claim following four peat vs Brighton

After a difficult 2023-24 season, Chelsea have bounced back with an impressive start to this Premier League campaign. Under the new leadership of manager Enzo Maresca, the Blues have only suffered one defeat so far and look rejuvenated.

Their latest triumph came in a commanding 4-2 victory over Brighton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, marking Chelsea’s fourth win of the season. The standout performer was none other than Cole Palmer, who made history by becoming the first player in English football to score four goals in the first half of a game.

Palmer’s dazzling display has earned him widespread praise, much of it coming from Maresca himself. It’s worth noting that the duo shares a strong connection, having worked together at Manchester City during Maresca’s time as an assistant manager. Their familiarity seems to be paying off, as Palmer continues to shine under Maresca’s guidance at Chelsea.

Enzo Maresca on Cole Palmer

Following Chelsea’s emphatic 4-2 win over Brighton, manager Enzo Maresca heaped praise on Cole Palmer, referring to the young star as the “best player in the Premier League.” Maresca highlighted the strong bond he shares with Palmer, which dates back to their time together at Manchester City.

The Italian manager commended Palmer’s humility and his remarkable ability to score consistently and at a rapid pace. Maresca even jokingly mentioned that he told the 22-year-old he could have netted even more goals in the game, underscoring the high standards he holds for the talented forward.

“He scored four but he also could have scored two or three more, what he was as a boy is exactly what he was three or four years ago. Goals, assists, best player of the Premier League – this doesn’t change the way he is. He’s a humble guy and for me it’s the most important thing.”

Currently earning £130,000 per week, Palmer has quickly cemented his position as one of the top-class players in the West Londoners’s squad. Moving forward, the best thing for Chelsea is that almost every player from the ranks is showing a glimpse of some astounding form and equally contributing to the team’s win.

With Palmer continuing to impress under Maresca’s guidance, it’s clear that the young Englishman is quickly becoming one of Chelsea’s most important players this season. It is not a stretch to claim that on current form, he is certainly the best in the business right now.
