Cole Palmer vs Uruguay | Creative Sub Impact | England Highlights 2026
Video Overview & Insights
Cole Palmer delivered an energetic performance for England against Uruguay in this international friendly at Wembley.
0:38 does he really come back? Why he pass back on 0:38 ? What a wide space for him to dribble and pass but he chose to pass back.
Really missed the old him, now feel like he thinking too much when ball on his feet
England drew 1β1 with Uruguay in a tense and physical match. England took the lead through Ben White before Uruguay equalised late from a Federico Valverde penalty.
Cole Palmer entered the match in the second half after Phil Foden was forced off following a heavy challenge.
He holds the ball too longer for me
From the moment he came on, Palmer brought creativity and attacking quality to Englandβs midfield. His corner delivery caused chaos in the Uruguay box and helped create Englandβs opening goal.
This video shows Cole Palmerβs full performance vs Uruguay.
HOPE HES ON THE PLANE, 7 GOALS WAITING FOR HIM
In this compilation you will see:
β’ All touches and ball control
The only player who looked class the other night
β’ Progressive carries through midfield
β’ Chance creating passes
Plays so confidently in that shirt
β’ Attacking movement between the lines
β’ Set piece delivery including the corner leading to Englandβs goal
Without Palmer and Kane, England is an average team
β’ Link up play with England attackers
Palmer continues to grow into one of Englandβs most creative attacking players, combining composure, vision, and intelligent movement in the final third.
Just an observation, people are talking about him in the comments, not taking risky passes or taking too long to release the ball. He isn't releasing the ball or taking risky passes because the rest of the team in front of him are static and they aren't looking to attack space. That is why he waits and that is why he can't make the risky killer pass. He is waiting and absorbing pressure from the opponents in order to give his teammates time to do something, he isn't holding onto the ball for no reason. It's his teammates that are too rigidly set in their positions, it's not Palmer's fault nobody around him is thinking... If he had more intelligent players in front of him he would have done exactly what you wanted to see... With him in the team, Watkins actually has a reason to be called up, Bellingham is the kind of player that will run into space as is also Rogers, even Kane would have offered him more than that running into space. Calvert Lewin didn't take his chances, but he is also the kind of player that will make those runs to get on the end of a Palmer pass... If you watch carefully, you'll also see that his teammates don't help him at all with their positioning when he gets into space on the right, they expect him to do magic all by himself rather than offering him the 1-2 he's looking for to be able to cut through the defence... If he plays, the players around him need to understand what he expects because if not he isn't going to be effective
Match result
England 1 β 1 Uruguay
wtf calvert lewin
Stadium
Wembley Stadium
As a Chelsea fan, I saw moments he played safe instead of taking risks, and that is called killer-pass. he can still improve.

Budak ni ok tapi dia kna kurangkan ego bila sudah cedera..dia boleh req dekat manager tuk fokus latihan insentif perbaiki shooting dan crossing..dia sgt gifted..so season ni dia sgt merrosot dlm pasukan chelsea..boleh dikatakan chelsea sgt bergantung kpd enzo dn pedro tuk mencari gol..player sepwrti gar,giten smua melempem sbb peninjau bakat yg stupid .ketahuilaa peninjau bakat zaman mou yg trbaik..macam mana mou dpt beli plyer mcm malouda,kalou,essien,obi,drogba..some african tapi sgt berbakat..tgk skrg mahal2 d beli tapi ayam..cb pun balik2 tukar ttp ayam..kna mou dijadikan penasihat klub..cari plyer mcm terry ,tak laju tapi sacrifice tu penting..dgn carval pun solid ...plyer mcm david luis ni versi pingpong ..skijap ok skijap ayam..cahill ok dri bolton pun dia da mantap sdia budak ni..
Tuk budak palmer ni dia kna bagi main bebas..baik d atm atau d winger..kna cari plyrr yg pandai bertukar posisi .dia bukan zidane yg solid bdn,atau ortega yg lincah dn tough..dia ni spisis mudah cedera tpi lincah,skilful,bijak dn smart .

I want him to try more through balls when he's playing deeper in midfield. Many wasted opportunities here - England's forwards open up really well.
@androidbluatHopefully now the club can appreciate what a great player cole is not that they should need convincing he has carried us since he arrived now he plays with a injury and they get on his back if we let him go we will regret it remember Salah and kdb don't let history repeat itself
@Paul.C-g9xThe cole palmer l know is not yet at is best... when palmer is in form... forget
@ofoenicholas7885Gotta start Cole! He's a game changer!
@bluearmy4228mid, didn't see anything to be amazed of , the glazing is another level.
@Yaten-DoujiWhat i saw there from palmer is nothing ive never seen this season with him at chelsea as a chelsea fan, he is still our star boy but that style of avoiding risky passes just to go back to control the game sometimes kills attack and if we being honest, thats not what we been use to from him ,i saw that in the england game just like I've been seeing in chelsea ever since he came back from injury, we need him to take the risk he use to take when he had nicholas jackson in his side
@fernussmith5521Palmerβ€β€β€β€π
@OlumBakindExciting player to watch. Palmer deserves number 10 shirt.
@ralphraffles1394There were moments he would have passed forward but delayed to pass. Those are things he needs to work on
@MBrynThis was hardly peak Palmer, Palmer is 1000x better than this!!
@WD_Rif ths low iq roseinior stop them running like headless chickens. Chelsea will win every game.
@vinay33310He looked brilliant yesterday. Very sharp picking out defence splitting passes. Was the brightest spark on the pitch. Hope he goes to the World Cup.
@TheShaneGuyHis technical abilities are higher than the rest of the players at the pitch
@SaadswidiqRashford / Kane / Palmer
Rice / Bellingham
Anderson
O'Riley / Gahei / Konsa / James
Pickford.
He is no where near his best
Still too slow
He hold the ball too long. He need to pass the ball when the window of opportunity is available but he hold it too long then try to do too much. Pass the ball quicker.
@ChelseaConagainHonestly Palmer used to be better than this, the injury really took him back like 5 steps
@topenoel1931He is talking too many touches
@ChelseaConagainI agree he looked very good yesterday in the match, sadly many of the others players did not reach his level. Foden was poor I thought. Also as I have noticed with Chelsea Cole is nearly fully match fit but again the other players are off the boil.
@dennisstaines8005Let him take corners instead of Neto
@kavishsree430He needs to be on the plane
@rockmancreationsGlad he got the number 10.
@NixedonRosenior should just play him No.10 on a floating position
@r.kgorman4698He is good but at times takes too long to release the ball. Some direct killer passes but he chose to keep the ball.
@Eden-k6yI think something is going in the club, besides three players cannot be good while the rest of the players doing rubbish, besides they play with top top players that's why it easy for them to play along
@AbigailLoviaThe usual easy route and they are no good at that
@andrewgleeson8862Imaging some stupid English fans and Madia wrighting hime off because he was injury palmer is the most natural gifted player England have currently he doesn't force things form is temporary class is permanent
@MustDauI'd have him in my starting 11 every time. A something from nothing player.
@matt9942-g5gHe definitely benching Saka, Madueke or Rogers
