Cole Palmer shines, Tosin great but two Chelsea stars struggle - Blues player ratings vs Fulham

Chelsea have been beaten against Fulham at Stamford Bridge, meaning Liverpool have the chance to move seven points clear tonight.

Cole Palmer opened the scoring in the west London derby with a wonderful solo goal. In a first-half full of half chances, Palmer lit the stadium up with a fantastic goal.

Levi Colwill thought he had doubled the Blues' lead at the beginning of the second-half but the defender was in an offside position. Fulham managed to level late on through a Harry Wilson header and then Rodrigo Muniz scored a winner in stoppage time. Below, **Bobby Vincent** rates the Chelsea players...

**Robert Sanchez** - Did well to hold onto a dangerous cross on 10 minutes. Also did well to hold onto a low shot from Calvin Bassey. A big save on the hour-mark to prevent Antonee Robinson from close range. **6**.

**Malo Gusto** - Struggling in recent matches. Not his best once again. **4**.

**Tosin Adarabioyo** - Solid once again. **7**.

**Levi Colwill** - Got an assist for Palmer's goal. Almost had a goal for himself but was offside. **7**.

**Marc Cucurella** - Great to see him back. He makes such a difference to the team. **6**.

**Moises Caicedo** - Great as always. **6**.

**Enzo Fernandez** - Almost scored at the start of the second-half. **6**.

**Pedro Neto** - Lots of tracking back to help with the attacking threats of Alex Iwobi and Antonee Robinson. **6**.

**Cole Palmer** - What more can you say about the lad? A truly special goal to light up Stamford Bridge early on. **8**.

**Jadon Sancho** - Need to see more from him. Did not offer enough in an attacking sense. **5**.

**Nicolas Jackson** - Kept drawing fouls. Fulham struggled to deal with the striker. **7**.

**SUBS**

**Christopher Nkunku** (on for Jackson 74') - Not enough time to make an impact, really. **N/A**.
