Cole Palmer has found himself plastered all over billboards in New York.<\/p>\n
And now Chelsea<\/a> \u2019s \u201camazing\u201d talisman is determined to live up to the hype – even if he taking it all in his stride. Chelsea star Palmer is one of the faces of the Club World Cup and part of Nike\u2019s advertising campaign along with the likes of Vinicius Junior, Erling Haaland<\/a> and Kylian Mbappe.<\/p>\n The slogan reads \u201cScary Good\u201d and Palmer has gained a reputation for being a big game player after his man-of-the-match display to virtually win the Europa Conference League final by himself. Now Sunday will provide an even bigger setting in the 80,000 capacity MetLife Stadium which will host the first new-look Club World Cup final.<\/p>\n They must overcome reigning European champions Paris Saint Germain with a \u00a397m jackpot at stake but Palmer will be determined to live up to the tag on those billboards plastered all over Times Square, Manhattan and beyond. Chelsea defender Levi Colwill said: \u201cHe\u2019s scary good – to say the least. He\u2019s an amazing player. That billboard suits him perfectly well.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Noni Madueke problems leading to Chelsea exit as Arsenal set to complete \u00a352m transfer<\/a>READ MORE: Chelsea star reveals Enzo Maresca’s bold Club World Cup final plan ahead of PSG showdown<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s amazing, seeing him everywhere around New York. It\u2019s surreal and I\u2019m happy for him. I think he\u2019s seen them but you know Cole. He\u2019s not really blown away by much and I think that\u2019s what keeps him going.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re all excited to be in the final. It\u2019s a huge competition and to be the first finalists is amazing. But we haven\u2019t just come here to be in the final, we want to win the competition.\u201d Chelsea are big underdogs against the flair and style of Luis Enrique\u2019s PSG<\/a> who have been in sensational form throughout this tournament.<\/p>\n The likes of Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Vitinha and Nuno Mendes have blown everyone away and they are certainly the team that FIFA would have wanted in their first new-look Club World Cup final. It has been an interesting journey for Chelsea and they do not have the superstars of PSG but Palmer is the standout player for Enzo Maresca\u2019s team.<\/p>\n But Colwill believes Chelsea have come of age in the competition, have grown through the rounds and success will put them back on the map and back among Europe\u2019s heavyweights. And Colwill also says, for the players, the prestige and the trophy is bigger than the prize money of a tournament which has often been more entertaining and popular than some expected. And there is definitely a template there for the future.<\/p>\n Colwill added: \u201cWinning the Europa Conference League helps a lot. This will be our second final of the season. It shows how far we\u2019ve come. We really do believe in ourselves. Hopefully we win this and many more finals in the future. This is huge. It\u2019s the first tournament and to put yourself in the history books would be really good for the team and build confidence going into the future.<\/p>\n \u201cYou have to respect how they press, how they play but we\u2019re not going to change our whole way to play them. We\u2019ve got our plan, our identity which we\u2019re going to stick to through the gaffer and that\u2019s when we play our best football so let\u2019s stick to it. We\u2019ve got this far with playing our football so why are we going to change that now? We believe in ourselves and we want to try to prove that\u2019s the way to do so.<\/p>\n \u201cIf you turn the game into a basketball match in this heat, it\u2019s not going to help anyone. You have to control the ball way more, pick the right times to attack and try to score. And above that, keep the ball. If everyone thinks we\u2019re going to lose then we\u2019ve got nothing to lose. We\u2019re going to go out there, play our football, be confident and hopefully surprise everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n Join our new WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
