It's Chelsea's turn to wake up, the moment has come Cole Palmer be a thorn in the side of everyone at Manchester City, because he would Pep Guardiola now he probably gave everything to have a player of such quality in the team.
They worked together until September of last year, and then Palmer wanted to move on and ask for what he thinks he deserves - greater trust and playing time...
This team of "citizens" definitely did not forget to play football, Bernardo Silva, Kevin de Bruyne, Phil Foden and the rest are still class players, but now City need more than anything fresh blood and a footballer of undeniable quality, ready to make a difference. And Palmer has shown that he is just that...
For whom Chelsea paid 70, 80 or 100 million euros, the 47 million invested in Palmer seem like a small thing, because the "blues" on the wings of the 22-year-old are progressing and showing that they are a team for the top of the table in the Premier League.
The latest proof of Palmer's progress is the London derby against Tottenham when he was a double scorer - it is less important that he scored both goals from the penalty spot...
We present the players who marked the European football weekend:
THE GOALKEEPER
Lion (Ox) - as many as 11 defenses were collected by the 32-year-old net keeper in the duel with Paris Saint-Germain - it is clear who is the biggest culprit for the new kick of the champion in League 1.
DEFENSE
Marusic (Lazio) - he did not have a big obligation in the attack in the derby with Napoli, and in defense he did his job almost perfectly in the duel with Hviča Kvarachelia. The Romans operate from the shadows and are at the top of the Serie A table.
Milenkovic (Nottingham Forest) - a photo of his goal against Manchester United and a try is a hit on social networks Lisandra Martinesa to match him in the jump - the popular Black was a meter above the Argentine at the moment he checked Andrea Onan.
THE MIDDLE
Kaisedo (Chelsea) - last season at this time he received criticism from all sides. He had a difficult start at Chelsea, and now - when the roles on the pitch are clear - he is playing the best football of his career. Whether some want to admit it or not, the Ecuadorian is one of the best players in his position in the Premier League.
Mhitarjan (Inter) - he set up two goals against Parma, both were masterful (first Dimarca, and then and The bars). The experienced Armenian thus reached the figure of 150 assists in his career.
Bellingham (Real Madrid) - The Englishman returned to his position on the field from last season more by force than planned and showed that he should stay there. A goal, an assist, and then a minor injury - Bellingham had all that in the triumph over Girona.
ATTACK
Palmer (Chelsea) - he was the only bright spot in the desperate editions of the "blues" last season, and now he is the leader of the team that is destroying everything in front of him in the Premier League.
Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) - "colćoneros" never give up, even when it seems that everything is lost. Such character left them in the game against Sevilla, and the great victory (from 1:3 to 4:3) was brought to them by the class of double scorer Griezmann.
Embangula (Juventus) - the "old lady" was sorry against Bologna, and then in stoppage time she scored a counter-attack - Vlahović was the assistant, and the young Belgian was the scorer for the final 2:2.
De Ketelare (Atalanta) - Milan had neither the time nor the vision to trust him for more than one season, and Atalanta is a system in which attackers full of technique easily come to the fore. Maybe De Ketelare's goal was preceded by a foul over Ernandesom in a duel with the Rossoneri, but that does not change the fact that he revived his career in Bergamo...
Lukman (Atalanta) - in the same place, in the heart of Lombardy, Lukman also found himself, after quietly arriving in Kalćo from the English Premier League. A specialist for big matches, he also solved the derby against Milan.
