EXCLUSIVE'I thought I would fit the project well': Chelsea talisman Cole Palmer on his reasons for leaving boyhood club Man City... after making Premier League history with four first-half goals against Brighton

Thinking a few steps ahead, it seems, is something that is second nature to Cole Palmer both on and off the pitch.

Brighton certainly couldn't keep up with the Chelsea star on Saturday as he became the first player to score four goals in the first half of a Premier League game in the Blues' 4-2 win at Stamford Bridge.

Last month, Wolves didn't find it any easier as Palmer registered a goal and three assists to lead Chelsea to a 6-2 victory to kickstart Enzo Maresca's tenure.
