Cole Palmer hit back at "social media idiots" after ending his goal drought in Chelsea's 3-1 win over Liverpool on Sunday. The Blues sit fifth in the Premier League after beating the champions at Stamford Bridge, taking a 2-0 lead through goals from Enzo Fernández and Jarell Quansah's 56th-minute own goal. Palmer scored 36 goals and registered 17 assists from his first 54 appearances, but he had just two assists and no goals in his 12 games before facing Liverpool. Palmer told Sky Sports after the win: "We played very well as a team. I've scored today and I'm happy, but it's only one and I've got to keep improving and try and reach new levels.
