After Chelsea’s Conference League final in Wroclaw, Poland, we spoke to Cole Palmer. He told us he was sick of going sideways and backwards and that he simply decided to go for it when he set up the goals which won them that trophy over Real Betis.
At the time, we did wonder privately how that would go down with Enzo Maresca, and clearly, Palmer’s words touched a slight nerve with his manager as the Blues boss brought it up during his post-match press conference after beating Los Angeles FC.
