Chelsea forward Cole Palmer has downplayed concerns over his recent goal drought, saying he remained unfazed despite going several months without scoring.
The Chelsea playmaker was on the scoresheet in Sunday’s 3-1 victory against Liverpool. Palmer’s stoppage-time penalty condemned the champions to only their third league defeat this season. The goal marked Palmer’s first goal since January.
Speaking to Sky Sports on Sunday after the game, Palmer admitted the dry spell had no significant emotional toll on him.
“No goals for months? I just felt normal. Obviously sh* happens, you know what I mean,” he said.
Palmer, who has is a key figure in Chelsea’s attacking setup this season, stated that the experience only fuelled his determination to improve.
“It gives me more fight and motivation to do more for myself and for the team,” he said.
Addressing the criticism he has faced online during the barren spell, the England international was dismissive of negative commentary on social media.
“Social media nowadays is full of idiots, trolls… I don’t care about that,” he said.
