Cole Palmer is the biggest and arguably the only positive story of the season for Chelsea. However, Mauricio Pochettino argues that Palmer's rise created difficulties for Noni Madueke.
"First of all, it’s about to have the space for him," Pochettino said.
"Because when the club signed Cole Palmer, he (Madueke) was also here at the club and they’re in the same position.
"It’s all about adaptation and trying to find the dynamic where him and Palmer can play together.
"Hopefully he can be consistent playing in the starting XI and show his quality. But always it’s about to find the right balance in the team."
This season, Madueke has played a total of 455 minutes in the Premier League, just over the equivalent of five full 90-minute games.
The 22-year-old has shown some flashes of his talent but has not proved he's good enough yet to start regularly for the Blues, especially over Palmer.
