Fabrizio Romano spoke about Nicholas Jackson after Chelsea lost 1-0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final at the weekend.
Chelsea lost with a goal from Bernardo Silva, ending their hopes of winning this season.
Failure in the FA Cup semi-finals also means Mauricio Pochettino’s side need to finish in the top six to qualify for the Europa League.
If Jackson had worn his shooting shoes, the outcome could have been very different.
The strikers had a number of chances to score, but Alan Shearer was disappointed with the number of missed chances.
As it turns out, it wasn’t Jackson’s best performance in a Chelsea shirt. Nevertheless,
it doesn’t seem to be the fact that blues has lost confidence in 22 -Year -Old.
Speaking of Chelsea and Jackson after defeat in Wonbra, Romano wrote on the spack: Possibility on the ground
“They will give him time. Certainly they are very happy that they signed him for a normal amount.”
Jackson will certainly have to bear some responsibility for Chelsea’s exit from the FA Cup on Saturday.
Of course, he might not have been talking about Jackson’s performance if VAR had awarded the Blues a penalty for Jack Grealish’s handball.
However, they never succeeded, so the center forwards had to become more skilled.
At the same time, the players of the Senegal national team have not performed too badly this season. 13 goals in 37 games isn’t the worst result.
He’s only 22 years old, but he has a lot of potential. Chelsea should probably stick with Jackson for a little longer,
but he may need to have a reduced role next season. And one would expect that to happen if the club signs a new centre-forward.
