Cole Palmer is this week's Premier League Player of the Week after netting four goals in Chelsea's 4-2 win against Brighton.

The youngster continued to prove himself as one of the best players in the world with four goals inside 20 minutes during the first half - becoming to first Premier League player to achieve such a feat.

Palmer first showed good composure to convert after having the ball squared to him by Nicolas Jackson, before converting a penalty and then a stunning freekick all inside 10 minutes.

He added a fourth just 10 minutes later, drilling a superb strike in at the near post to completely stun Brighton - and the majority of the country.
