Cole Palmer, everyones favorite straight-talking Chelsea and England midfielder who loves his chippy-chips and a basic builders tea, took to
Twitch earlier this week to livestream the upcoming EA Sports FC 27 . There was just one problem: he wasnt supposed to be showing off the game this early and was given a temporary ban by the platform.

As spotted by ESPN , Palmer was given early access to the upcoming football sim and decided to livestream it on Tuesday afternoon to a fairly significant audience. However, he was supposed to wait until after an official EA Sports showcase took place later that evening. After an EA rep popped up in the chat to remind Palmer, the stream ended, and his Twitch account page was updated
to show that it had been suspended. Latest Videos From TechRadar Watch full video here:

In response to the gaffe, Palmer characteristically posted on Instagram that, I was only giving the people what they wanted. He followed that up with a simple request: unban me pls.

Genuine mistake or not, any potential leniency from EA probably wasnt forthcoming after he started complaining about his rating in-game during the untimely stream. EA Sports FC 27 has given Palmer an overall score of 85 out of 99 in the latest edition. He was 87 in the previous entry.

"I need a word with EA. They took two ratings off me," Palmer said during the stream.

In fairness, he did call out that he spent a lot of last year out with
various injuries, which he joked had effectively left him with one leg for 10 months last season. Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.

His ego also took another small knock when he saw that long-time friend and Chelsea teammate Morgan Rodgers had been given a pace score of 76. Palmer's pace rating is listed at 75. Savage.

Fortunately, his account has now been reinstated, and hes already been back streaming as if nothing had happened, bringing an end to another hilarious aside in the footballers career that's already been full of meme-worthy moments. This one is my new favorite.

EA Sports FC 27 officially launches on September 25, with early access starting September 18 for those who pre-ordered the Ultimate and Ultimate
Plus editions. Follow TechRadar on Google News and add us as a preferred source to get our expert news, reviews, and opinion in your feeds.
