Palmer was praised, Chelsea has strengthened many positions, and the new season is worth looking forward to

Recently, Chelsea legend Pat Nevin expressed his views on Palmer's performance. He compared the Blues' true core with the legendary Zidane in football history, which is undoubtedly a great affirmation of Palmer. Palmer performed well in two championship matches last season, helping the Blues win the European League and Club World Cup championships, so before the start of the new season, all parties recognized the strength and role of this core player.

A year ago, the view of comparing Palmer with Zidane began to emerge. At that time, Palmer made his mark and showed extraordinary football talent and potential. This comparison is not groundless. Zidane, the legendary midfielder in football history, has a brilliant career. At the club level, he has played for giants such as Juventus and Real Madrid, and won many championship trophies, including the Champions League, La Liga, Serie A, etc. In the national team, he led the French team to the 1998 World Cup and the 2000 European Cup. Zidane has comprehensive skills, accurate passing, and dribbling like a dream dance step. Marseille swing has become his iconic move. His elegance and calmness on the court and his control of the rhythm of the game are all master level. At that time, Palmer also showed excellent ball-handling ability, overall view and reading ability of the game on the court, which made people see Zidane's shadow.

It must be admitted that Palmer's performance showed obvious ups and downs last season, and the gap in his condition reduced people's expectations for him, and his comparison with Zidane seemed to be gradually put on hold. But the charm of football lies in its fullness of variables. Now, Palmer has recovered strongly and has once again demonstrated the potential of a world-class player, and his comparison with Zidane has been mentioned again. His performance on the court is becoming more mature and steady. Whether he creates opportunities for the team on the offensive end or actively participates in the fight on the defensive end, he can see his influence.

The legendary is not stingy in praise of Palmer, calling him a world-class player, who does need to play the key player in the national team's competitions. Looking back at the European Cup, when many players shine in the spotlight, Palmer can only sit on the bench, which makes Newen feel very puzzled. In his opinion, Palmer has the ability to make a appearance in the competition and change the situation.

Facts also prove that Palmer's strength cannot be underestimated. In Chelsea games, he can often break through the defense with his personal ability, create good scoring opportunities for his teammates, or personally siege the city and capture the village. His passes are extremely imaginative and he can always find his teammates in the best position when it seems impossible. On the defensive end, he has also been unremitting and actively chased back to help the team consolidate its defense line. This comprehensive performance makes him one of Chelsea’s indispensable core players.

In today's football world, the definition of a world-class player is not only to have excellent personal skills, but also to be able to bring victory to the team at critical moments, be able to adapt to different tactical systems, and have strong psychological qualities. Palmer obviously meets these standards. Nevin believes that any team in the world will extend an olive branch to Palmer, which is enough to show his value in football.

Newen also emphasized that Palmer should not be easily compared with football legends like Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, because their status in football history is too special, and their achievements and influence are unique. However, Palmer is already very close to that higher level, and to achieve this leap, he needs to maintain a long-term high level of performance. This is both a challenge and an opportunity for the young Palmer. In the new season, Palmer needs to do his best in every game, constantly improve his technical and tactical qualities, while maintaining a good competitive state.

Looking forward to the new season, Palmer welcomes new teammates, such as Estewan and Gittens. Nevin believes that these teammates can provide strong support and help to Palmer, and they may have the ability to improve their teammates' performance. In football games, the strength of the team is crucial, and the tacit cooperation between teammates can often achieve the effect of 1+1>2. The arrival of Estewan and Gittens has injected new vitality into Chelsea's lineup, and the chemistry between them and Palmer is worth looking forward to. If they can produce chemical effects in the game, then Chelsea's offensive line will become sharper, and Palmer will also gain more room to play and create more offensive opportunities.

Chelsea's signings are very good this summer. The two wingers, Sancho and Maduaike, who have left the team, have already replaced them, and Gittens and Estewan are competent for this position. Drapp and Joao Pedro also strengthened their offensive firepower on the front line, with Essugo joining in the midfield, and Andre Santos who returned on loan. Cucurella's substitute and rotation player is new player Harto, so this position does not need to make right-back Gusto or captain James play a cameo in this position in the new season. In any case, Chelsea is a team that is more worth looking forward to in the new season.
