Who can stop it? This is the question that all of England is asking when seeing Cole Palmer’s recent performances with Chelsea. Impressive for his first real season as a starter in the Premier League, the former Manchester City player is impressive and once again produced a high-flying performance this Monday against Everton. Launching the Blues perfectly with a header (1-0, 13th), the slender attacking midfielder scored the double five minutes later following a great collective action which he created. Far from being satisfied, the number 20 of the Blues scored the hat-trick in thirty minutes with a superb long-range lob (3-0, 29th). Drinking the chalice to the dregs, the Toffees, in danger of remaining in the British elite, conceded a fourth goal before the break following a splendid sequence (4-0, 45th).

Still as apathetic during the second act, Sean Dyche’s men did nothing to come back and conceded a new goal from…Cole Palmer (5-0, 64th). His twentieth goal of the season, which allows him to join Erling Haaland at the top of the PL scorers’ rankings, also completes a very nice success for Chelsea. Mauricio Pochettino’s flock even decided to win the first set by scoring a sixth goal thanks to young (20-year-old) defender Alfie Gilchrist (6-0, 90+1). The London team thus continues with an eighth match without defeat in all competitions and is preparing as best as possible for the FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City this Saturday. While Chelsea are ninth but are getting closer to the European places, Everton are sixteenth and will quickly have to wake up.
