Chelsea returned to winning ways on <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-player-ratings-sheffield-united-cole-palmer-moises-caicedo/blt7452187d69b6775a" target="_blank">Saturday with a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United</a>. Goals from Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson handed the Blues a much-needed three points to move up to 10th place in the table. Palmer now has six goals this season for the Chelsea, with Pochettino revealing after the game how a key tactical tweak he made had helped the summer signing inspire the Blues to victory.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Pochettino told BBC Sport: "In the second half we changed the position of Palmer and Raheem Sterling, we tried to put Palmer and [Mykhailo] Mudryk in a better position in front of goal. I’m confident, even when we lose. I really believe in the players and the club. Now it’s about to use that in the next competition in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup."The Chelsea boss also went on to speak about what he feels is Palmer's best position: "For me he’s a playmaker, a player who can link the team. He’s also a player with the capacity to score goals and give assists. The contribution of Cole Palmer from day one has been massive."

WHAT POCHETTINO SAID

Palmer is certainly having a big impact at Chelsea after signing for the club from <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/chelsea-seal-cole-palmer-transfer-from-manchester-city/blt5e4ae0993723f3cd" target="_blank">Manchester City in a deal worth £42.5 million ($53.8m)</a>. Chelsea went to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/chelsea-sign-cole-palmer-man-city-transfer/bltd18124f179769e9f" target="_blank">great lengths to bring in the youngster</a> and he is already establishing himself as a key player for Pochettino. The move is also paying off for Palmer. He is enjoying regular football at Chelsea and will be hoping he can also force his way into <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/rip-off-shrewd-bargain-cole-palmer-proving-man-city-doubters-wrong-chelsea/blte5175a4c18e07169" target="_blank">the England squad for Euro 2024</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Palmer has now scored and assisted in three Chelsea games this season against Sheffield United, Burnley and Tottenham.

DID YOU KNOW?

Pochettino may well look to Palmer for inspiration again on Tuesday in the Carabao Cup. The Blues are in quarter-final action against Newcastle at Stamford Bridge and will be hoping to book a spot in the last four.
