When Rosenior and former Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca said Palmer is the best player on this Chelsea team, performances like this make it hard to disagree. Palmer, who has been out for most of the season, was Chelsea’s star as they cut through Wolves like a pack to get all three points.

Palmer’s last goal to complete his hat-trick was also his first open play goals in almost a year. For many Chelsea fans, the Englishman is back and firing on all cylinders and he could be giving England manager Thomas Tuchel a lot to think about regarding his World Cup squad.
