I agree that he cuases a lot of chaos for oppossing teams and I deffo would take him over ANY of our current LWers, but I just do not agree that he is 'the best winger in the EPL' atm. I would say he IS perhaps the 2nd best LWer after Antoine Semenyo atm. and then there are multiple RWers I rate over him (as a winger in general) atm: Bukayo Saka (the best winger overall in the EPL atm IMHO) Phil Foden (is rounding back into WC form after a difficult spell, I know he is hated here but he is a crazy good player when firing on all cylinders) Bryan Mbeumo (close and if Doku starts scoring more he will pass him up IMHO) Estêvão (if not now, then he soon will be better than Doku IMHO) Mohamed Salah is complicated. Up until until this season he was THE best winger in the EPL (no one else was close, not even Saka), if not the world (along with Yamine Lamal, and probably Michael Olise, as Mbappe and Ousmane Dembélé are now almost exclusively CF's, plus Vini Jr is in real turmoil and I rate all those listed in this sentence (save for Salah atm and a Vini Jr in current turmoil) over Raphinha, who is nonetheless a superb winger who I would kill to have on Chels) BUT Salah and Pool are both struggling a lot this season, and it looks like age may have finally caught with a 33yo Mo.

We'd be lucky to get him, he won't be short on options next summer

It's weird to predict a team who's won 6 of the last 10 titles will do so again? Not really pal

yes he need to go

Wharton is a player I really like, Lavia is finished

Confirmed that it’s another long injury. Love his talent, love his personality, love the IDEA of Lavia and what he could’ve been. We would quite comfortably have the best midfield 3 in the league and probably all of Europe if he was able to stay as fit as Caicedo & Enzo and play every match. But he’s got to go in the summer. If anyone would even take someone with his injury record. We just cannot continue with this “play a game or two and then disappear for months” shit for yet another season. I truly hope that buzz and rumor about Adam Wharton are accurate and we go big for him next summer. Would be the perfect replacement.

Maresca coach these players to increase their price and clownlake to flip them for profit like Madueke , Veiga , Petrovic . These so many rotation will not lead to the title .

The guy draws the attention of entire teams and is pulling them away from their position. He is responsible for so many hockey type assists or close moments.

Well the plan is for him to be back for both: https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/13463768/cole-palmer-injury-enzo-maresca-hopes-Chelsea-forward-will-be-fit-to-face-barcelona-and-arsenal-in-november

false framing it is not Americanising football at all to say scoring only 3 or 4 goals over 40 odd games (what he is tracking to atm) is NOT the stuff of the 'best winger in the EPL'

He has been okay. The goal and assist contributions are nice, but I think he is a passenger for a lot of the game - kind of like Alonso was back in the day for us.

When did we Americanize football? I'll just sit here and pretend Bruno Fernandes is in a class above Iniesta and Zidane because of stats.

Nope. He has been the best winger in the EPL. His end product and finishing are absolutely fine - this isn't the same player from a season and a bit ago.

Could be wrong, but Palmer is out till at least December right? Don't think he'll make it for the Barcelona/Arsenal games. Wouldn't want him to start either, unless his match fitness is up.

Meh.. His dribbling and pace is incredible indeed but has horrible end product and decision making. Bit similar to Garnacho and Pedro Neto. Very skillful but their team often doesn't benefit anything because of bad final passes and low quality shots. Today was his day.

🙄 he has one EPL goal in 11 games the one today

Yeah no chance of us winning it. Still think be Arsenal at the end but be nice to get close at least or not be fighting for 4th towards the end.

What a weird thing to say from apparently a Chelsea fan. We are 2 points behind them...

If we can get Cole back fit and playing like himself again and can stop dropping incredibly silly points to bad teams we have a genuine shot at making this a really good season in the league. Multiple clubs who were expected to be right up there in the UCL places like Liverpool & Newcastle are struggling badly. We really should be making 2nd our big objective. We don’t have the defensive solidity to finish above Arse this season but City and Liverpool both look flawed just like we do.

3-0 City, class from Doku, the best player on the field and the best winger in the league
