Liam Rosenior has revealed he wouldn’t change a fully fit Cole Palmer for any player in the world in his position.
Palmer has made a huge impact at Stamford Bridge since arriving from Manchester City in a deal worth around £40m in the summer of 2023.
The England international has scored 48 goals and registered 29 assists in 110 appearances for the club, and will be looking to add many more to his tally.
Liam Rosenior wouldn’t swap Cole Palmer for anyone
Palmer has really struggled with a groin injury this season, and missed virtually the entire first half of the campaign.
The 23-year-old returned to action against Leeds in December and has scored three times since his comeback, but clearly isn’t fully fit.

Palmer missed the game against Pafos with a slight strain, and there have been reports linking him with a move to Manchester United.
However, Fabrizio Romano has stated Palmer is crucial to Chelsea’s project, and Rosenior has said he wouldn’t swap him for any player in world football in his position.
“A fully fit Cole, firing, I wouldn’t change him for any player in world football in his position,” he said as quoted by Mail Sport.
Chelsea are hoping Palmer will be fit for Sunday’s game against Crystal Palace, as Rosenior takes charges of his first Premier League away game.
Chelsea looking to bring in defender and midfielder
Whilst Rosenior works out how to get Palmer back to his best, Chelsea are looking to strengthen their squad before the window closes.
The Blues are looking to bring in a centre back and a midfielder, but it remains to be seen if they get a deal done in either position.
