Chelsea’s star Cole Palmer has reacted to his only goal that came after three months. Chelsea won 3-1 in last night’s Premier League game against champions Liverpool FC. Palmer went three months without scoring and social media was all over him. Thus, after scoring he didn’t hold back his emotions on trolls he received all these months.

Chelsea star Cole Palmer broke his three-month goal drought in style during the Blues’ impressive 3-1 win over current Premier League champions Liverpool last night. The attacking midfielder, who had come under fire on social media for his recent dip in form, finally found the net and made sure to silence the critics.

Palmer’s goal was a crucial part of Chelsea’s dominant performance at Stamford Bridge, where they outclassed Arne Slot’s side with energy and precision. Speaking after the match, Palmer didn’t shy away from addressing the backlash he faced online during his dry spell.

“It happens, as I went three months without scoring, but it just gives me more fight and motivation to do more for myself and my team,” said Palmer. “Social media nowadays is full of idiots, the trolls and whatever. I don’t pay any attention to that.”

The young one’s response highlights the mental toughness required to succeed at the top level, especially under the intense scrutiny that comes with modern football.
