From the source

Cole Palmer is always a talking point. He is a fan favourite at Chelsea, but when it comes to England, the Blues superstar is always criticised.

Finally, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has spoken sense. So much criticism came Palmer’s way when he pulled out of England’s squad for the extended break in September.

Thomas Tuchel led the way, perhaps using the media to help create a narrative around him. His patriotism and integrity in an England shirt have been questioned.
