It was 12th goal of the season and remarkably his 26th of 2024. That saw Palmer break Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's record of most Chelsea goals in a calendar year - scoring 25 in 2001. Others in the top five were Didier Drogba with 22 in 2010, Diego Costa scoring 21 in 2016 and Frank Lampard with 20 in 2005.
