In the 6th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea beat Brighton 4-2 at home, and the young striker Palmer, who is only XX years old, scored four goals in just 19 minutes, staging a shocking "big four". This outstanding performance not only made Chelsea fans boiled with excitement, but also aroused widespread concern inside and outside the soccer world. Arsenal veteran and former England international Theo Walcott, in an interview with the British media, gave Palmer's performance a very high evaluation, and even compared it to the Dutch legend Bergkamp and the Dutch wing Van Persie.
Walcott could not hide his appreciation for Palmer, saying: "Palmer showed not only his ability to score goals, but also his deep understanding of soccer and extraordinary skills. Every goal he scored was full of imagination and precision, and people had to marvel at it. I really can't find more words to describe his performance than to say that all four of his goals were fantastic."
Walcott also highlighted Palmer's style of play and mentality: "The way he plays the ball is very elegant, and the calmness and aesthetics he displays when controlling the ball are very impressive. What's even more remarkable is that he is able to maintain such a calm mindset in such an important game at such a young age, which proves that he has the potential to become a top player. At Chelsea, he has quickly grown into the core of the team and taken the starting position."
Walcott was even more complimentary about Palmer's technical characteristics: "He has the skill and finesse of Bergkamp and Van Persie, which is very rare. Bergkamp is known for his passing and shooting, while Van Persie is known for his all-round attacking ability and excellent physical fitness. Palmer sees himself in them, with the same superb sense of the ball and keen eye for creating unexpected chances in the game."
Finally, Walcott is looking forward to Palmer's future: "There is no doubt about Palmer's talent and potential, and he definitely has the ability to get a foothold in any top team. Of course, I also believe that he can become an important member of the England national team in the future. We can't leave him out of any team because he is the kind of player who can change the direction of the game."
