Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has issued an injury update on star player Cole Palmer ahead of their top-of-the-table clash with Arsenal.

Now, Sherwood has stated that Eze is England's best attacking midfielder - even ahead of Cole Palmer.

Chelsea talisman Cole Palmer has, during an exclusive chat with GOAL, been charged with the task of picking his favourite FIFPRO legend from a selection of global icons.
