(Video): “His IQ is amazing… I knew he was going to find me” – Cole Palmer praised by his teammate

Carney Chukwuemeka had a great cameo today and scored a great goal, but when interviewed after the game he passed all the love on to Cole Palmer, who set him up with a clever backheel.

“His IQ is amazing… I knew he was going to find me,” Chukwuemeka said, revealing that Palmer had actually promised to assist him if he came on.

The two look like they could be a deadly combination, if we can get them fit and firing together.
