Palmer led the league for goals (seven) and goal involvements (eight) despite making only four appearances.
He scored a hat-trick in a 4-3 win over Man Utd that included equalising and winning goals in second-half stoppage time, before netting four times in a 6-0 victory over Everton that moved him level with Erling Haaland in the race for the Castrol Golden Boot.

Everton’s goalkeeper kept four clean sheets in six matches to help his team secure safety. He was made to work for his shutouts, too, making 23 saves, the third-most in April, with seven of them coming in the victory over Liverpool, Everton’s first home Merseyside derby win since 2010.
