Chelsea fans were in awe of the England international’s moment of geniusX
But Palmer, 22, still showed his class with one eye-catching moment up against Man Utd‘s new signing Manuel Ugarte.
Neither side were able to keep hold of possession as the ball bounced around in an ugly passage of play.
Eventually, it dropped to Palmer who feinted to take it one way and then fed the ball through Ugarte‘s legs.
He then found space and played a pass to start a Chelsea move.
And the piece of skill was not missed by Blues supporters who were quick to heap praise on their talisman.
One said: “He actually owns every Manchester United player.”
Another added: “Nutmeg with a ball that’s still in the air is wild .”
A third replied: “Nah, this guy is an exceptional baller.”
