Cole Palmer was back in fine form for Chelsea and is one of the reasons that they put in such a good performance, with the stats proving this as well.

Palmer was also involved in Chelsea’s first goal of the game in the opening minutes, as well as some good work by Romeo Lavia and Pedro Neto to setup Enzo Fernandez to provide a lovely finish to get things going.

Chelsea in for a busy summer window

Despite having spent so much already completely rebuilding the squad under the new ownership, it’s fully expected that Chelsea will be one of the busier clubs in the transfer market again this summer.

A new winger is on the horizon, with Chelsea being linked to names such as Jamie Gittens from Dortmund, as well as Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United.

Chelsea are plotting a new move to sign Alejandro Garnacho with Man United ready to let him go, according to their former chief scout.

Mick Brown, who spent over a decade at Old Trafford during the club’s most successful period and remains very well-connected there, exclusively told Football Insider that the Blues remain keen on the 20-year-old after missing out in January.

“Chelsea’s interest hasn’t gone away,” said Brown.

“They wanted him in January and they’re still looking to sign a new winger.

“It’s been spoken about for a while that Man United could let Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo go because they want to raise money.

“Chelsea have the foundations of a top-class team and they’re still looking to improve in key areas.

“The problem is, you don’t know if Garnacho would come in and be a regular in that team, because they’ve got so many options out wide.

“He will want to play regularly – but look at what’s happened to Jadon Sancho there.

“How many players have they signed with big expectations who have just been on the fringes?”
