Former England striker Teddy Sheringham believes Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is pleased with Cole Palmer’s success at Chelsea following his move from City. While some argue that Guardiola’s decision to sell the 22-year-old was a mistake, Sheringham points out that Guardiola has always been willing to let go of players who he feels may not be getting enough playing time.
