Cole Palmer has rinsed teammate Romeo Lavia after the midfielder tagged Chelsea "gaffer" Enzo Maresca in his social media post.

Lavia, who has been one of Chelsea's standout performers this season, asked his followers on Instagram to think of a caption for his latest post.

Wesley Fofana and Malo Gusto told the Belgian to "calm" after he tagged Maresca in one of the pictures, but it was Palmer's comment that went viral.

The 22-year-old, clearly amused by the fact Lavia had mentioned his manager, wrote: "Why you taggin the gaffa like he gna follow you??"

You could say Palmer's comment was revenge for the message Lavia wrote on his match ball following Chelsea's 4-2 win over Brighton in September.

After becoming the first player in Premier League history to score four goals in the first half of a match, Palmer posted a picture of the ball which featured the following message from Lavia, "You're a mid player regardless."

In reality, Palmer is a huge fan of Lavia's quality. Speaking to SPORTbible earlier this year, he claimed the midfielder would eventually prove his quality to everyone once fit.

“One person I’ve played with [who is good] is Romeo Lavia," he told us in June.

"We’ve not seen him this season because he’s been injured for a full year but I think he’s one that, when he gets playing everyone will think, ‘Oh, he’s really good’”.

Many have praised Lavia's impact for Chelsea this season, including Sky pundit Jamie Redknapp, who said the Belgian has offered a “nice balance” in Chelsea's midfield alongside Moises Caicedo.

“He has done ever so well, he’s good on the ball, he’s comfortable,” he told Sky Sports. “It must be a joy to play alongside someone like Caicedo."

Redknapp added: “They have got a nice balance, great energy, they win the ball back, it will be hard to play against.”
