'You're a mid player regarless'- Romeo Lavia's signature on Cole Palmer's hattrick match ball

Chelsea wiped the floor with Brighton with Cole Palmer with the moping duties after scoring four times passed Brighton’s defence.

After achieving the remarkable feat and becoming the first player in Premier League history to score four goals in the first half of a match, Palmer was quick to reflect on his performance with a cheeky sense of humour. “I should have had five or six,” he stated, showcasing his high standards and ambition.

Amid the accolades, Chelsea teammate Romeo Lavia couldn’t resist joining in on the fun.

Cristiano Ronaldo has made a shocking thought on who should take over as new Man United manager if the club decides to part ways with Erik ten Hag.

Writting on Palmer’s match ball, Romeo Lavia humorously declared the young star to be “you are a mid player regardless” of his extraordinary achievement.

This friendly ribbing exemplifies the camaraderie within the squad and highlights the close-knit environment at Stamford Bridge.

Palmer’s outstanding display not only earned him personal glory but also emphasized his impressive season stats, now totaling six goals and four assists.

Arne Slot believes his team has all the quality and depth they need for this season.

His performance has tied him with Chelsea legends Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba, and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, each of whom also scored three Premier League hat-tricks for the club.

The blend of on-field success and off-field banter showcases Palmer’s maturity and confidence as he continues to establish himself as a key player for Chelsea.

With Palmer’s combination of talent and humor, Chelsea fans can look forward to more entertaining performances and maybe a few more cheeky comments from his fellow players as the season unfolds. The future is bright for this emerging star!
