EPL: Cole Palmer joins elite company, equals Drogba, Lampard record as Chelsea thrash West Ham

Chelsea star Cole Palmer delivered another outstanding performance in the Premier League, guiding the Blues to a dominant victory over West Ham on Sunday, May 5.

The 21-year-old midfielder opened the scoring for Mauricio Pochettino's side in the 15th minute, setting the tone for Chelsea's resounding 5-0 win at Stamford Bridge.

Palmer's goal marked his 21st league goal of the campaign, highlighting his remarkable talent and impact on the team.

Despite his young age, the former Manchester City player has already matched the achievements of Chelsea legends like Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba, who each scored 16 home goals for the club in different seasons.

Chelsea's upcoming home game against Bournemouth presents Palmer with an opportunity to make history in his debut season for the club.

Captain Conor Gallagher doubled Chelsea's lead in the 30th minute, followed by another goal from Noni Madueke just before halftime.

Nicholas Jackson added two more goals in the second half to secure a convincing victory for Chelsea in the London Derby.
