Fires one home Palmer scored one goal to go with six shots (four on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 5-1 victory against Southampton. Impact Palmer entered December on somewhat of a cold stretch, a troubling sign with Chelsea's team entering its most difficult month in terms of activity. However, he is already off to an excellent start this month, with two goals in as many appearances. Already, Palmer is only one goal away from reaching double digits in the category, something he easily achieved last season. It featured him averaging 0.67 goals per game, which is only slightly more than his scoring rate this season.
