His most spectacular performance came in the Blues, 4-2 win over Brighton, where Palmer scored all four goals and became the first player in Premier League history to score four times in the first half of a match.

The Chelsea star also scored in Chelsea’s game against West Ham and provided an assist in their 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace.

In addition to that incredible display against Brighton, Palmer also produced an assist in a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace and a goal in a 3-0 win at West Ham United.

Palmer beats top names to coveted award

The September Player of the Month award was Palmer’s second title, more than contemporary Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka after the Chelsea star also claimed the Player of the Month accolade for April 2024.

The Blues star topped an eight-man shortlist that also included Liverpool’s Luis Diaz and Ryan Gravenberch, Newcastle’s Harvey Barnes, Arsenal’s Gabriel, Fulham’s Raul Jimenez, Everton’s Dwight McNeil, and Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins, who were nominated for September's award.

Palmer was crowned the Player of the Month after the public's votes were combined with those of a panel of Premier League football experts.
