Cole Palmer has been amazing for Chelsea this season. His performances this season has seen him earn nominations for the Premier League Player of the Year, and also Young Player of the Year.

Chelsea captain Reece James, who only just returned to the team from injury, was full of praise for Cole Palmer, and claimed he’s already one of the best in the world.

“It’s been a long wait for me so I’m happy to come back into the team,” Reece James told Sky Sports.

“We learn every day, we’re still young but we are improving and we’re coming strong at the end of the season.

“Cole Palmer is one of the best in the world, I think personally. At [Manchester] City he didn’t play as much as he would like but he has come here and taken the chance with both hands.

“Slowly but surely we are finding our feet and reaching a level.”

Cole Palmer however deflected the praise from his captain Reece James, as he rather stated: “I wouldn’t go that far! But it’s nice to hear.

“It’s all new to me. This is my first season playing properly in the league. It was a very important win and now we focus on the next one.”
