Arsenal legend Martin Keown has drawn a comparison between Chelsea’s Cole Palmer and Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne.
Keown made the observation following Palmer’s influential performance in Chelsea’s crucial 1-0 victory against Fulham at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Impressed by Palmer’s abilities, Keown noted the young England star’s ‘helicopter vision,’ a trait reminiscent of De Bruyne’s playmaking skills.

Keown stated via talkSPORT, “Palmer played a De Bruyne-like pass, it’s the kind of pass we hadn’t seen in this game yet. Palmer sees these opportunities on the pitch. We talk about a helicopter vision of the game from De Bruyne, and I think Palmer has that as well.”
It’s worth mentioning that Palmer made the move to Chelsea from Manchester City last summer.
