Cole Palmer was back to his best to get Xabi Alonso's Chelsea career off to a winning start in a chaotic 3-2 victory at Fulham on Monday Night Football.

The Blues' attacking trio of Palmer, Joao Pedro and Morgan Rogers looked every bit among the most potent in the Premier League as all three scored to earn Alonso a deserved win in a game where entertainment reigned and defending was an afterthought.
