Palmer vs Saka: Danny Murphy picks better footballer

Former Liverpool star Danny Murphy has suggested that Chelsea’s Cole Palmer is a better overall footballer than Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka.

Palmer, who joined Chelsea from Manchester City last summer, scored a hat-trick on Thursday night against Manchester United.

Speaking about Palmer and Saka, Murphy told TalkSPORT that Palmer has more goals than Saka.

“He’s got more goals than Saka. Look, don’t get me wrong; I love Saka and he’s a right winger out and out, Palmer’s kind of playing there as a 10. But his all around game (Palmer’s) you could argue is better,” Murphy said.

“I’m not saying he’s a better right-winger than Saka but his all-round footballing ability, in terms of passing, linking, dropping in, because Saka doesn’t play that role as he does, so it’s not a fully fair comparison.”

He added: “But I don’t see why it’s not an argument to have that he can’t take the place of anyone in the England team, apart from Bellingham, because of his numbers.”
