The full picture
Cole Palmer's record against the 'big six' teams is underwhelming, according to The Chelsea Chronicle. Palmer has played six games against Tottenham and scored three goals, all from penalties, and set up a teammate twice. Against Manchester United, he has scored four goals across six matches, including a hat-trick. His overall numbers against the 'big six' are not impressive, with only three additional goals against Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool.
The Chelsea Chronicle notes that Palmer's recent performance against Tottenham was his worst in his senior career, failing to score or assist and being sent off. However, his overall record against Tottenham is considered 'pretty good' by the source. Palmer will have an opportunity to improve his record against Manchester United this Saturday as he will not be suspended.
The Chelsea Chronicle states that Palmer's overall record against the 'big six' is not good enough for an elite player. He has not provided an assist against any of the 'big six' teams other than Tottenham. The source emphasizes that Palmer needs to improve, not just against the 'big six' but in general, to avoid a repeat of his recent poor performance.

Source context
These days, there is not really a fixed top six in the Premier League, partly because of teams like Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. Chelsea and Tottenham are seen as part of English football’s “big six” alongside Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United. However, the former finished 10th in the table last season, while the latter nearly got relegated. Even so, when these teams play each other, their games are still billed as encounters between the Premier League’s biggest clubs. With that in mind, how has Cole Palmer fared in them as a Chelsea player? Well, against Tottenham over the weekend, the attacking midfielder had a night to forget.
