Chelsea 's stunning performance against Everton has been soured by a fiery scuffle involving Nicolas Jackson .Three Chelsea players, including Noni Madueke and Palmer, were involved in a scuffle to take the spot kick's designated penalty taker, picked up the ball and walked towards the penalty spot, leaving Jackson furious as he tried to grab the ball back for himself.
Palmer then pushed Jackson away as he put the ball on the spot, something that infuriated Madueke and Jackson even more with Conor Gallagher needing to get involved to stop them bickering., stepped up and coolly converted his effort and wheeled away to celebrate, but the drama wasn't done yet with Jackson initially refusing to celebrate the goal.
In the end, words from Madueke and Malo Gusto convinced him to go and pat Palmer on the back for his effort, with the striker still unhappy at being denied the chance to take the penalty.Sitting in ninth position, the Blues are just three points from sixth in the table with at least one game in hand on the sides in their way.
With Palmer now joint-top goalscorer in the Premier League alongside Erling Haaland, they'll be confident of bringing European football to Stamford Bridge next summer after all.Martin O'Neill questions Troy Deeney's managerial nous after Ollie Watkins comments
