Chelsea star Cole Palmer has been warned that he must tone down his confidence levels.

That is according to Garth Crooks, who is a pundit for BBC Sport.

Brooks believes that Palmer, who signed from Manchester City in the summer, may find opponents “clipping his wings" if he is not careful.

He in his weekly column: "The way Palmer dispatched his penalty showed he has supreme confidence in his own ability.

“But his dinked finish was bordering on 'taking the Michael' and players have a way of dealing with that. If he's not careful he may have his wings clipped."

Manager Mauricio Pochettino chose to praise Gallagher instead, stating over the weekend: "If he decides to give the ball to another player [to take the penalty], I cannot go onto the pitch to say no or I'll get a red card.

"He is a specialist, shooting really well, but it is a decision on the pitch depending on the circumstances. It is about who is on the pitch.

“I could say 1, 2, 3, like in Paris [Saint-Germain] with Neymar, [Lionel] Messi and Sergio Ramos. But after between them they can say, no you, me, or them."
