CHELSEA MUST LEARN TO FIRE WITHOUT COLE
Irish Daily Star
|September 27, 2025
ENZO MARESCA says Chelsea are going to have to learn to live without Cole Palmer after ruling their talisman out for the next three matches.
Palmer (inset) limped off in last Saturday's defeat by Manchester United with a groin injury and will miss today's clash with Brighton, plus home matches against Benfica and Liverpool in the next week.
Chelsea head coach Maresca said: "With Cole we are a better team, but we also need to play games without Cole. We are going to find a different solution.”
Maresca denied that Palmer would need surgery and insisted the problem could cease if his workload is managed correctly.
