Despite admitting he is still adjusting to the ‘huge adjustment’ of moving to the capital, Cole Palmer is standing by his choice to leave Man City and has had a solid start with Chelsea.

Cole Palmer feels validated in his decision to quit Manchester City after only one month at Chelsea.

The forward will lead England’s Under 21s in their Euro qualifier against Serbia on Thursday night. He scored his first Premier League goal in Saturday’s 4-1 win against Burnley.

Palmer joins after thriving under Mauricio Pochettino at Stamford Bridge, where he contributed significantly to Chelsea’s early run of four straight wins.The 21-year-old is having trouble adjusting to life in the capital city, but he is excelling for his new club after being acquired for £42.5 million on transfer deadline day.

“I know my own ability, so it has surprised me a bit,” Palmer remarked. And I knew that if I made a quick start, I’d have a shot, and I’d make an evident difference. I attended because of the very reason.The notion crossed my mind that I might be able to get in. After perusing the roster, I can confirm that many players participated, though perhaps not as many attackers as one might expect.

Moving to a new area is a major life transition, and as a result, things have been somewhat chaotic. After a few weeks in a motel, I moved into my own apartment. It’s challenging and unfamiliar; I can’t do much of it on my own yet, but I’m getting better.Jermaine Palmer Sr. helped his son Palmer get settled in during his first week. ‘I’m learning everything,’ he continued, “from cooking to navigating London to operating a washing machine.” “At home, my mother was doing the laundry.”

Manager Lee Carsley is adamant that the triumph in Georgia is not dwelt upon, despite the fact that Palmer was an integral part of the Under-21 team that made history by winning Euro 2023.

Only seven players in this camp participated in the European Championships, but Carsley hasn’t even showed them highlights from the summer.

According to Carsley, “a UEFA guy called up the German coach on stage at the draw for that tournament, asking how he felt about defending the title.” ‘According to him, “We won’t be defending because it’s a totally new squad.” Despite my initial skepticism, I reasoned, “Well, you did win it last time.”

But I get what he was getting at now. This is an all new team. It’s like we’re making a fresh start here. It’s over; get over it. We need to outperform them. There are obviously room for improvement there.
