'He has the mindset': Chelsea told to build team around one player — not Enzo

Speaking on TNT Sports, former Chelsea forward Joe Cole said: “The one player who has stood out for me over the past few weeks is Cole Palmer, a young player.

“He has the mindset, he reminds me a lot of James Maddison, he’s probably more forward-thinking than James, he’s more of a forward while James is more of a midfielder.

“He’s one who over the next five years, we can build a team [around] and he will be an integral part of it.”

Chelsea pulled a coup when they signed the Englishman on a £40m fee from Man City on the summer transfer deadline day.

The 21-year-old has quickly established himself as a leader of the young Blues team, with three goals and four assists in 10 games.
