In the 20th minute at Old Trafford, coach Enzo Maresca decided to take Palmer off and give his place to midfielder Andrey Santos. After leaving the field, Palmer clearly showed his displeasure. He shrugged, put on his jacket, then went to chat with MU's Kobbie Mainoo and headed straight to the tunnel with an angry expression.

Palmer scored in Chelsea's 3-1 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League on September 18, confirming his indispensable role in the Blues' attacking play. However, coach Maresca said he was forced to change the entire system after goalkeeper Robert Sanchez's red card in the 5th minute against MU.

Goal revealed that in addition to tactical reasons, the reason coach Maresca took Palmer off was also because the midfielder suffered a groin injury after the match against Bayern. Palmer endured the pain to play against MU, but could not show his best form.

In 20 minutes on the pitch, Palmer had just one touch and one pass to a teammate. He mostly ran after the ball and helped out in defence as Chelsea were forced to play with a man down early on.

In the end, Chelsea lost 1-2 to MU at Old Trafford. This was the first defeat of "The Blues" in the Premier League this season, causing the team to fall to 6th place in the rankings.
