![Man who turned Pep down could be key for Southgate](https://cdn.magzter.com/1591272633/1719633012/articles/3yY6tiQzX1719646684673/MAN-WHO-TURNED-PEP-DOWN-COULD-BE-KEY-FOR-SOUTHGATE.jpg)
âMy first position was leftback,â he said. Sensing a sudden excitement among his audience, the Chelsea winger was quick to add: âI am talking Under-10s. Under-10s! I have never played left-back since. I was tiny and I just got put left-back. Then when I was 12 I moved further and further up.â
But Palmerâs has been a career of unconventional moves, where he has been reinvented to ever greater effect. When he left Manchester City for Chelsea, he was not expecting a return of 22 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League alone. The man who turned Pep Guardiola down has been turned into a cause celebre, the player many want to add excitement to an uninspired international team.
Like many an England international of the recent past, he owes a debt of gratitude to Mauricio Pochettino, who oversaw his transition from City substitute to Footballer of the Year candidate. âWhen he left I was gutted,â Palmer said. âA different manager might not have given me that freedom and opportunity to do what I did at Chelsea.â But he has been reunited with another who has already had a catalytic impact on his career.
âI had Enzo [Maresca] at City Under-21s for a season and then he went to Parma,â he said. âThen when I went up with Pep [to the first team] he came back as Pepâs assistant.â
