[Vincent] Speaking to TNT Sports before the game, Palmer said: “Hopefully [I can achieve my ambitions at Chelsea]. I believe in the club, they spoke to us as players. Hopefully I, and we, can win a lot at Chelsea. If we’re not in the Champions League, everything changes. We need to finish in the CL”

    Those 2 last sentences are unrealistic. There o
    is no current Chelsea player in their form that turns games around and who makes the whole team work harder. This is a player we need, without it, we’re finished.

    He didn’t say this as one response to a question, so this quote is misleading.

    He said the bit about the UCL after being directly asked how important is champions league for the club.

  3. The best players want to play in the champions league. 

    Only good news is we ought to be able to command a really high price for Palmer, which might help go a little while way to lift us out of the financial hole BlueCo have dug us.

  4. Well it’s all up to you guys to qualify, so far you guys have not shown that you want to qualify.

  5. Champions league next season is over, lost to many points already, this team is lost they can’t even beat a bottom of the league team at the moment

  6. Ahhh talented footballer but thick as shit if he believes anything the club tells him, we’re going nowhere under this loser rosenior and if the players back him then they are doomed for being shit

    he hasn’t played like a champions League level player since 2024. Time for some introspection Palmer

    It goes both ways. Palmer needs to start performing at a high level again, too.

    There is zero chance Chelsea qualify for the CL. They have to win games, and if you want to win you have to score goals. They can’t score goals.

    He’s as much to blame as everyone else, he’s been fucking awful for a while now.

    When players try harder then there’s tendency to make mistakes and also injury. Can’t make mid players become world class just by try harder.

    it’s like the players forget they are the ones who control whether we play champions league or not. that’s why watching them is so frustrating feels like they’re not desperate enough for it

    “If we’re not in the Champions League, everything changes. We need to finish in the CL.”

    That last bit is so concerning.
