'Despite Palmer's multi-goal display, Chelsea suffered the humiliation of a relegation battle draw,' the UK's Press Express reported on Jan. 31 (ET). Palmer issued a stern warning to his teammates," the Express reported.

Mauricio Pochettino's Chelsea drew 2-2 with Burnley at Stamford Bridge in London, England, in their 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) home game on Aug. 31. The Blues remain in 11th place in the standings with 11 wins, seven draws and 10 losses (40 points).

Chelsea had the decisive chance in the 40th minute. Mikhail Mudrikh was fouled by Lorenz Assignon in the attacking third. Assignon, who had already picked up a yellow card, was sent off to accumulate his total for the game. Chelsea were also awarded a penalty kick via video assistant referee (VAR). Palmer stepped up to the plate and converted for a 1-0 lead.

The game didn't go as expected. Chelsea equalized two minutes into the second half through Josh Cullen. In crunch time, Palmer stepped up again. In the 33rd minute of the second half, [스포츠토토](https://www.sportstoto365.com/) Palmer finished off an exquisite pass from Raheem Sterling. Chelsea took a 2-1 lead. But Chelsea's heads were down three minutes later when Burnley's Dara O'Shea scored. The game ended 2-2 despite Chelsea's numerical advantage.

'Palmer warned that a game like this cannot happen again,' said the Express. Despite being outnumbered, they lost to a relegation zone team. Palmer has scored eight goals in his last four games. He's practically playing soccer on his own. He scored again today, but it wasn't enough to stop Chelsea's misery under Pochettino.

Palmer added: "It shouldn't have happened. They had 10 men. We could have played comfortably. But we kill ourselves every week. We need to improve our players. Consistency is important," he concluded.

Palmer, born in 2002, joined Chelsea from Man City ahead of the season, with his transfer reportedly worth around £45 million. Palmer has been on fire this season with a career-high 13 goals and eight assists in 24 league games.
