7 Incredible Cole Palmer Records After 4-Goal Haul Against Everton | SportsRation

Cole Palmer has etched his name among football’s elite with an exceptional four-goal performance in Chelsea’s 6-0 demolition of Everton in a Premier League clash on Monday.

The former Manchester City attacker, who switched to Chelsea this summer, notched a perfect hat-trick within the first 29 minutes of the game, culminating his scoring spree with a penalty.

This impressive haul has elevated him to a season total of 20 Premier League goals, tying with former teammate Erling Haaland.

Palmer’s extraordinary form has allowed him to achieve and surpass multiple records:

1. Historic Hat-Trick: Palmer’s perfect hat-trick is now the earliest recorded in Premier League history.

2. Premier Performance: He is the first Chelsea player to score four goals in a Premier League match since Frank Lampard did so against Aston Villa in March 2010.

3. Consistent Excellence: Palmer becomes only the second Chelsea player, following Didier Drogba in 2010, to score hat-tricks in consecutive home appearances in the league.

4. Penalty Perfection: He maintains a flawless penalty record, converting all nine attempts in the Premier League, trailing only Yaya Touré’s 11/11 for the best 100% conversion rate in the league’s history.

5. Youthful Prowess: At 21 years and 345 days old, Palmer is the fifth youngest player to score four or more goals in a single Premier League game, matching Frank Lampard’s achievement for Chelsea in 2010.

6. Stamford Bridge Streak: Palmer is the first Chelsea player to score in seven consecutive Premier League home games.

7. Scoring Stature: He is the first Chelsea player since Eden Hazard in the 2018/19 season to reach the 20-goal mark in all competitions in a single season.
