Palmer scored with his left foot, head and right foot in the 13th, 19th and 29th minutes on Monday to become the first Chelsea player to score in seven successive home games.
바카라It all happens so fast,바카라 Palmer told Sky Sports.
바카라We started well and I scored another hat trick 바카라 buzzing. First one was my favorite, my right foot was a bit of a swinger.바카라
The Manchester City reject stroked home a superb first from just outside the box and nodded in the second from close range after Jordan Pickford could only parry Nicolas Jackson's shot.
His third was a wonderful 35-yard lob after Pickford needlessly gifted him possession.
Nicolas Jackson added a fourth a minute before halftime, and Palmer made it 5-0 from the penalty spot in the 64th.
Substitute Alfie Gilchrist's first goal for the club made it six in injury time.
Palmer's goals took his season tally to 20 in the league, tied with Manchester City's Erling Haaland.
The result extended a depressing few days for Everton. Just hours before kickoff, the club lodged an appeal against a two-point deduction for a second breach of the Premier League financial rules.
Everton was docked two points last week for overspending in a three-year spell up to the end of the 2022-23 season. It was a second deduction this season for Everton, which had six points removed 바카라 reduced from 10 following an appeal 바카라 for breaching spending limits from 2019-20 to the 2021-22 season.
"We've already agreed that's gone, we have to get on with it," Everton manager Sean Dyche said. 바카라(The points deduction) is out of our control.바카라
Dyche described Monday as a 바카라collective down day바카라 and said his team was miles off the pace.
바카라We can't perform like that at a place like this. The key moments when they got chances, finding the back of the net, we haven't done that all season.바카라
The Liverpool club sits in 16th place, only two points and two places above the relegation zone.
After running its unbeaten streak to eight, Chelsea was in ninth place, only one point behind West Ham. Chelsea has two games in hand over the Hammers.
