Chelsea star Cole Palmer was back in the goals on Saturday as he netted a hat-trick in the Blues’ 3-0 win over Wolves in the Premier League on the road to take his goal tally for the Londoners to 51 goals in 100 outings.
Palmer dispatched two spot-kicks to perfection and added another from open play to give Liam Rosenior’s men a resounding win at the Molineux.
“I don’t want him to change, that’s for sure. Some of our passages of play, some of our football, was everything I wanted to see and he was a part of that," Chelsea boss Rosenior said following the win as he lauded the Englishman.
“We know what a world-class player he is. He’s played a lot of football over the last year with not much rest. When he’s at his best, he’s unstoppable. I’m delighted to be working with him."
“When he’s fully firing and feeling good he’s a magnificent footballer," Rosenior said.
“When you’re at this club with these demands and scrutiny, which I’m starting to learn myself, you have to block out the noise and remember what a good player you are.
“I love working with him. He loves being here. Hopefully now he can really enjoy his football between now and the end of the season."
The hattrick comes as a much-needed respite for the brilliant Palmer, who has missed most of the season through a string of injury woes.
“Not being 100 percent fit isn’t ideal, I still feel like I can help the team but when I’m back to full fitness I feel like I can go to another level," Palmer said.
“Life under Liam is amazing, he gives us all confidence. Lets us be ourselves, play free.
“I’m sure when I’m back proper fit you’ll see the best of me. Him and all the staff give us all confidence on the training pitch. I really like it."
