Gary Lineker was full of admiration for Cole Palmer, the Chelsea player who managed to score three goals in just 29 minutes during the Premier League game against Everton on Monday.

The player from England became the center of attention by delivering an impressive performance in the initial half. He took advantage of the flaws in Everton's defense and helped the Blues gain a powerful lead.

Palmer scored three goals again while playing at home, making it his second hattrick in a row. He had already scored in the Chelsea vs. Manchester United match which was a close victory for the team. This means that he has scored a total of five times in his last 30 minutes of gameplay in Stamford Bridge.

Palmer scored the most impressive goal out of the three, seizing on a poor pass from Everton's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and lobbing the ball from a distance of more than 30 yards. The goal was particularly outstanding as Palmer is only 21 years old.

There has been a lot of praise for the ex-Manchester City winger, who has been one of the most impressive signings of the season. This is because he moved from Etihad to Stamford Bridge for a hefty fee of £42.5m.

Cole Palmer received heaps of compliments for his incredible performance from Gary Lineker, among others, when he netted three goals within 29 minutes in a match against Everton while playing for Chelsea.

Palmer netted his third goal against Everton with a stunning lob from a distance of more than 30 yards.

Palmer received a lot of applause for his impressive performance in the first half, leaving Everton shocked.

Lineker, one of the experts, praised Palmer's amazing achievement by posting on his social media account with the message: "Cole Palmer is truly talented" followed by three applause emojis.

There was more admiration expressed for Palmer's impressive performance in the game against the struggling Toffees. Former Man United player Rio Ferdinand was just as amazed by Palmer's early achievements.

Ferdinand thinks that Palmer's recent performances have made him a necessary player in Gareth Southgate's team for the European Championship in Germany. That's why Palmer made it into the latest squad for England.

Ferdinand praised Palmer by including him in the list of the best English players. He shared his thoughts online, mentioning that Palmer is performing exceptionally well, even during their travel to Germany. Ferdinand also mentioned other great players like Declan, Jude, Foden, Saka, and Kane.

Jamie Carragher showed his appreciation for Palmer by praising him and stating that he could potentially be one of the top players for this season's Premier League Player of the Year award.

The Manchester-born striker scored three goals on Monday, bringing his total number of goals in the top-flight competition to 19 in just 27 appearances for his team, the Blues. This impressive feat places him in second place among the top scorers in the current Premier League season, with only Man City's Erling Haaland ahead of him.

"Cole Palmer was clearly going to win the Young Player of the Year award, but how close is he to winning the Player of the Year award?!" exclaimed Carragher on Twitter.

Palmer has an impressive accomplishment of scoring three goals which also makes him the sole Chelsea player to score in seven consecutive Premier League matches on their home ground, Stamford Bridge.

Lineker praised Palmer as having "exceptional talent" following his three-goal performance against Everton while playing for Chelsea.

The supporters of Chelsea have not experienced many moments of joy amidst a challenging season for the team, who have won the Premier League title seven times. However, they expressed their happiness on various social media platforms when the Blues asserted their dominance in their match against Everton.

"I can't take it anymore! A certain Mr. Palmer who acts cold and unfriendly," expressed a frustrated fan of the Blues on social media platform X.

One person wrote: 'Palmer is crazy.' Another individual expressed: 'Palmer is amazing.'

During the summer, Palmer transferred to Chelsea because he was finding it difficult to regularly secure a position in Guardiola's team. Since joining Pochettino's squad, he has been a standout player and a crucial component of their setup.
