Chelsea legend, John Terry has hailed attacking midfielder, Cole Palmer amid his performances for the club.
Terry said the 22-year-old is very strong and impossible to play against him.
He said this while revealing how Palmer won a recent bleep test against his Chelsea teammates ‘by a mile’.
“He’s quite quick, you know,” Terry told talkSPORT when asked about Palmer.
“Also, I was at Chelsea the other day and they were doing a bleep test, he won it by a mile.
“He was cruising, like people were dropping out and he was there right until the end.”
He added, “In terms of fitness levels and power, he looks quite skinny but very strong.
“Takes the ball on the half-turn, really quick as well. Impossible to play against.”
Palmer is currently recovering from a muscle injury problem, according to Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca.
He left the England camp ahead of their World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.
Palmer missed Chelsea’s Premier League 1-0 defeat against Arsenal last Sunday, after picking up the injury in training.
