Cole Palmer is a doubt for Chelsea’s visit to Arsenal on Tuesday, with Mauricio Pochettino confirming the Premier League’s joint-top scorer is likely to miss the game at the Emirates Stadium with illness. The 21-year-old did not train on Monday following his side’s FA Cup semi-final defeat to Manchester City on Saturday, a loss that left them needing to secure a top-seven finish in the league if they are to end their year-long absence from European competition. Palmer has been Chelsea's standout star this season, with 20 Premier League goals.
