Cole Palmer named his top four Premier League players in history and left out both Wayne Rooney and Mo Salah from his list.
Ahead of the final day of the season on Sunday, the Chelsea star sat down for a wide-ranging chat with Sky Sports.
During the interview, the England was asked to name his Mount Rushmore of 'Premier League greats' - referring to the iconic sculpture featuring the heads of four former United States presidents.

The concept, which Palmer was completely unaware of to begin with, has been applied to many areas of sports and entertainments.
Palmer was tasked with giving his take for the Premier League and was allowed to pick between players, managers and even owners in his four-person list.
After it was explained to him with a Chelsea example, Palmer proceeded to mention Manchester United legend Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored 103 goals in the Premier League and won three titles in a row between 2006 and 2009.

He then included Arsenal icon Thierry Henry before contemplating including defenders and deciding to go attack-heavy with his selections.

Palmer elected to recognise the stellar Premier League career from his former Manchester City teammate Kevin De Bruyne and signed off with a second legendary Belgian in Eden Hazard, PFA Player of the Year in 2014/15.
After securing qualification to next season's Champions League with a 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest in the final day of the 2024/25 campaign, Chelsea look to sign off Enzo Maresca's first campaign with a trophy when they take on Real Betis in the Conference League final on Wednesday.
And Palmer, who has scored in the Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup and Euro 2024 finals, is chomping at the bit to enjoy another special occasion.

"Anything can happen in a final. It doesn't matter who you play or where it is," Palmer told TNT Sports ahead of the showpiece in Wroclaw.
"I'm excited to play. It will be big for the club, for all of us players, to start with a trophy, especially in the manager's first season."
