'You can't leave him out' - is Palmer England's most important player?

Whether it's pundits, managers or fellow players, everyone is saying the same thing about Cole Palmer - that he is one of the most exciting talents around right now.

His Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca declared he is "the best player in the Premier League", while club-mate Jadon Sancho said "anything is possible" with him in their side.

Palmer has scored six goals in seven league games so far this season - four of which came in a stunning first-half display against Brighton.

He has even been voted 2023-24 England men's player of the year by Three Lions fans, despite just two of his nine caps coming as a starter.
