Cole Palmer reveals what Chelsea players said in dressing room after penalty row

Cole Palmer revealed Chelsea’s players were ‘laughing and joking’ about the penalty row which partially overshadowed his side’s 6-0 thrashing of Everton.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side produced their most devastating performance of the season to date and closed to within just three points of Manchester United, having played a game less, enhancing the prospect of European football at Stamford Bridge next season.

Man of the moment Palmer produced another sensational display, scoring four times to take him level with his former Manchester City teammate, Erling Haaland, in the race for the Golden Boot.

Palmer’s goalscoring exploits were partially soured, however, by the unsavoury argument that took place before Palmer’s fourth of the evening which came from the penalty spot.
