Chelsea star Cole Palmer has a ‘killer pass’ and one particular skill that makes him unique: ‘He doesn’t feel pressure in the most pressurised situations.’

That’s according to his Chelsea and England teammate Noni Madueke, who has enjoyed a close friendship with Palmer for many years.

Madueke is currently on international duty with the Three Lions and has heaped praise on Palmer, who has once again been in glowing form so far this season.

Palmer has conjured up six goals and five assists across Chelsea’s opening seven Premier League games this term.

‘Cole is a very unique player – a type of player that doesn’t feel pressure, in the most pressurised situations,’ Madueke said.

‘I feel Cole’s unique in the sense he can just go on the pitch, play the game, have fun, play the game to enjoy it … and he’ll produce anyway. That’s just him.’

Quizzed if Palmer is currently the best attacking midfielder in the world, Madueke added: ‘Listen, Cole is a phenomenal player.

‘In terms of the best player in the world? I don’t know if I should be the one to decide that.

‘But I think the sky’s the limit for him. I don’t know if he has a ceiling. I don’t know what his ceiling is but I feel like the form that he’s showing now is incredible.

‘Me and Cole have a great relationship off the pitch and on the pitch as well. It would be fun if we can get to play with each other for England definitely.

‘We just bounce off each other. I think we have a similar outlook on things. We have a good connection.

‘Firstly, we’ve been playing with each other for a very long time now, since we were Under-15 here at England.

‘And we are very good friends off the pitch, so he probably looks for me a lot, just as I look for him. He’s got a killer pass, and I’m very dynamic, so I think it just works.’
