Chelsea 'once again becoming unmissable' - Nevin
Cole Palmer duly popped in four goals on Sunday to underline that, among all the great young talents in English football at a very special time, he is probably already the best of the bunch.
His four could easily have been six and he should have had a hat-trick of assists on the day too.
It is hard to imagine how he does not grab a starting berth for England now, even with the likes of Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham, Jack Grealish and Eberechi Eze on the scene.
There were six goals in the first half at Stamford Bridge, while Chelsea have already had an eight-goal bizarre-a-thon against Wolves this season.
There is an argument that winning the league is still beyond them, but as pure box office, they are once again becoming unmissable.
