Byline
Manchester City's Cole Palmer has expressed his delight at making his Premier League debut, describing it as a dream come true. The 20-year-old winger came off the bench in the dying minutes of the Blues' thrilling 3-2 victory over Manchester United to earn his first appearance in the top flight.
"It was an incredible moment," Palmer said. "I've worked so hard for this, and to finally get my chance is just amazing. It's a dream come true." Palmer's introduction to the game proved to be decisive as he helped City secure a vital three points in the title race. The youngster's pace and trickery caused problems for United's defense, and he was unlucky not to score on his debut.
"I tried to make an impact," Palmer added. "I wanted to come on and help the team. I'm delighted that we got the win." Palmer's performance has earned him praise from pundits and fans alike. Jamie Carragher, a former Liverpool defender, believes that Palmer could become a key player for Chelsea in the future.
"He looks like the main man at Chelsea," Carragher said. "He's got everything you need in a winger: pace, skill, and an eye for goal. I think he's going to be a top player." City fans, however, will be disappointed to see Palmer leave the club. The youngster has been a key member of the City youth team, and many had hoped that he would break into the first team this season.
"It's a shame to see him go," said one fan. "He's a great talent, and I think he could have been a star for City. But I wish him all the best at Chelsea." Palmer is expected to make his full debut for Chelsea in the coming weeks. The Blues host Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday, and Palmer could be handed a start at Stamford Bridge.
