Chelsea have just won the Conference League after a 4-1 victory over Real Betis. As usual, Cole Palmer has been the center of attention. The Blues' number 1 star contributed two important assists in the second half, helping the home team become the only team to qualify for the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League.
Played very well on the pitch, but Cole Palmer wasn't too good in the interview. When asked how to find space to make a difference after the game, Palmer replied: "I don't know. I tried to find space when the match started. And it happened.
When asked about how Palmer created two important assists, he frankly shared: I was tired of receiving the ball back and passing the ball. I think if I receive the ball next time, I will take it forward.
The answer stunned the media, but made fans very excited on social media. Many people even humorously said that experts and journalists should never interview Cole Palmer again.
Continuing his extremely simple interview style, Palmer shared a historic moment with Chelsea: "Becoming the only team in history is a great feeling. That's right." Then, when asked if he was successful for the season, Palmer nodded at Reece James: "That's the captain's question."
Clearly, Cole Palmer is showing special progress at Chelsea. This season, he scored 15 goals and 12 assists, helping his team win tickets to the Champions League and Conference League. That is what makes the England young midfielder recognized, not whether his interview is good or not.
