Chelsea’s Cole Palmer compared to Kevin De Bruyne by Arsenal legend Martin Keown

Arsenal legend, Martin Keown, has drawn comparisons between Chelsea‘s Cole Palmer and Manchester City‘s Kevin De Bruyne. Keown made these remarks after Palmer played a pivotal role in Chelsea’s crucial 1-0 victory against Fulham at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. The former Arsenal player praised Palmer’s ‘helicopter vision’, a quality shared by De Bruyne.

Discussing Palmer’s performance, Keown stated, ‘Palmer played a De Bruyne-like pass, it’s the kind of pass we hadn’t seen in this game yet. Palmer sees these opportunities on the pitch. We talk about a helicopter vision of the game from De Bruyne, and I think Palmer has that as well.’

Cole Palmer joined Chelsea from Manchester City last summer, and his performance against Fulham further showcased his potential.
