Manchester City is hurting after its agonizing Champions League elimination. Now the team is facing the prospect of its FA Cup defense being ruined by a player the club sold in the offseason and who has gone on to become arguably English soccer’s player of the season.

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer celebrates after scoring his side’s fifth goal during the English Premier League soccer match between Chelsea and Everton at Stamford Bridge stadium in London, Monday, April 15, 2024. Chelsea’s Cole Palmer celebrates after scoring his sides second goal during the English Premier League soccer match between Chelsea and Burnley at Stamford Bridge in London, Saturday, March 30, 2024.

“I don’t judge the player when we sign but I expected the best,” Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino said. “It doesn’t surprise us. He’s a player who’s had the capacity to score goals when he was playing at Manchester City. He has the capacity to score easily. He has scored some of the best goals in the Premier League this season, such as a solo strike at Luton that included him rolling the ball with the sole of his boot around the goalkeeper and pausing to see a defender slide past him before slotting home. His opener against Everton was a thing of beauty, too. He has also converted nine from nine from the penalty spot this season.
