Fans all say the same thing about Gareth Southgate's England decision after what Cole Palmer did for Chelsea

Fans are all saying the same thing after Cole Palmer produced a stunning performance on Monday.

Palmer joined Chelsea in a £40 million move from Manchester City last summer, and he has arguably been the signing of the season.

On Monday Chelsea hosted Everton at Stamford Bridge, and the 21-year-old was in unstoppable form.

Palmer scored a 16-minute hat-trick to put his side out of sight, his second treble in the pace of two weeks.

Palmer opened the scoring with a stunning record-breaking goal that saw him nutmeg Jarrad Branthwaite, play a one-two with Nicolas Jackson and curl the ball into the bottom corner of the net.

The youngster headed home a second from close range, before completing a perfect hat-trick with a stunning long-range lob over Toffees goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

Palmer has now scored 24 goals and provided 13 assists in 41 outings for Chelsea this term, and his form has given England manager Gareth Southgate a big decision to make.

Palmer only made his senior debut for the Three Lions in November, but he will surely be included in Southgate's squad for Euro 2024 in Germany.

Cole Palmer scored a first half hat-trick for Chelsea against Everton.

However, fans are now calling for the Chelsea star to be in England's starting XI, with some saying he should replace Arsenal's Bukayo Saka.

"Cole Palmer starts over Bukayo Saka for me at the Euros. He’s just too good," one fan wrote on X, while another agreed: "Palmer needs to start for England, none of this Saka b*******."

A third fan said, "Cole palmer is clear of Bukayo Saka btw," and another argued, "Stop debating Palmer > Saka. Debate against real ballers like Foden."

One fan noticed that "Palmer has scored two more Premier League hat-tricks [two] than Saka & [Marcus] Rashford combined," two of the players vying for Palmers place in the England starting XI.

Another supporter simply said: "Cole Palmer is the best youngster in England." It's hard to disagree.
