The Debate: What Did Pep Say to Cole Palmer After Man City’s Win Over Chelsea?
Manchester City’s star-studded attacking lineup was too much for Chelsea to handle as they claimed a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge. The victory was notable for being the perfect tonic for Pep Guardiola’s team following their disappointing Champions League campaign.
What caught the attention of fans, though, was the intense conversation between Pep and Cole Palmer on the pitch at the final whistle. The 22-year-old England international had a quiet afternoon, failing to make an impact alongside his former Manchester City teammates. Some even suggested that Palmer’s lack of output was a direct result of him having to adapt to Chelsea’s new playing style and teammates.
But what was discussed between Pep and Cole, many wanted to know? Fans were left stunned by the possibilities, ranging from Pep apologizing for letting Cole leave Manchester City to asking about his return. Yes, some fans genuinely believe Pep regrets letting Cole go!
A number of theories emerged on social media:
Some fans think Pep said something along the lines of: "I knew you were wasting your talent when you left Manchester City. I tried to keep you, but you insisted on joining Chelsea."
Others reckon Cole was told: "You were making a huge mistake by joining this team. Your talent will waste away in this squad. We tried to keep you, but now look where you are."
Some even joked: "’You’ve got the Alvarez money, can I come back and join Manchester City for real money?’"
Of course, fans are free to speculate, but there could be some truth to these rumors. Has Cole’s departure from Manchester City worked out as planned? Will his career ever reach its potential amidst the chaos at Chelsea? As the debate rages on, Cole Palmer remains an enigmatic figure, leaving fans wondering if there’s more to the story.
