Palmer Masterclass and Same Old Manchester Utd | Episode 27 | Don't Blame The Ref

The pod is back. We break down Chelsea's opening win over Fulham — the attacking promise, Palmer's brilliance under Alonso's direct style, and whether Joao Pedro already answers the striker question.

Plus Chelsea's transfer verdict, what they still need, and our early Premier League and relegation predictions. Follow us on: Instagram - @dontblametheref TikTok - @dontblametheref X - @dntblametheref
