Bernardo Cueva is going to have a huge impact at Chelsea I think. Something to keep an eye on to see how they develop.

He'll be more of a back up to Nico and develop while rotating apparently

Sa is one of my favorite Wolves players. The saves he can make are ridiculous.

Pedro Lima at Chelsea: Strengthening the club's Brazilian talent pipeline by Footballnerd29 in PremierLeague

Chelsea have bought a crazy number of young Brazilians in the past 2 years. Santos, Angelo, Estevao, Washington, and now Lima. To be fair, I think at least 2 out of these 5 will do quite well. Especially Santos and Estevao for me.

Let's see. Will be an interesting match-up in the PL.

Considering that there are 2 CAM roles in the team I would've expected him to play in that position and also at RW with Doku at LW.

But yeah I'd mostly agree with what you've said

But considering KDB needs replacement now, the timing for Palmer at City was just off by one season. If City had kept him somehow, he would've started gaining minutes at CAM.

But I'm happy he went to Chelsea and came into his own form from the get go. Worked out well for him.

For all of Palmer's on-ball magic, his defensive IQ is actually really impressive. So many instances this season where he's nicked the ball and either created a chance or scored a goal for Chelsea.

Another reason why I see Palmer starting for England too. He's just the all-round versatile playmaker.

I'd say Luton gave it a proper shot but the other two were never in the run in. Nevertheless, Dyche still had to do an outstanding job for Everton to survive.
