Cole Palmer has lit up the Premier League once more on Boxing Day as he put his side ahead vs Fulham.
The England international glided past two Fulham defenders before rolling the ball into the bottom corner from all of 20 yards out, handing his side the lead in the process.
And in doing so, he continued his outrageous record in west London. In his first 50 Premier League starts, Palmer has been involved in 52 goals (34 goals, 18 assists), a record that only Erling Haaland and Andy Cole can claim to better.
