Pochettino has put £32m Chelsea player under serious pressure now after what happened on Monday night
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!On Monday night, Chelsea secured a rare Premier League win against West London rivals Fulham, triumphing with a 2-0 victory. The Blues, struggling to find consistency this season, managed to clinch just their second league win.
Mykhailo Mudryk and Armando Broja were the key figures in the attack, both scoring within a minute and adding a new dynamic to the team. Broja, making his first start of the season, seized the opportunity and performed impressively in the front role.
Nicolas Jackson, who has been responsible for leading the attack for most of the season, has faced challenges in finding the net consistently. Despite contributing positively to the team, his goal-scoring record has been relatively modest since his £32 million move in the summer. With just one Premier League goal to his name, he needs to enhance his goal-scoring prowess to secure a consistent starting role.
Suspended for the Fulham match, Jackson is set to return to the squad for the upcoming clash against Burnley. Manager Mauricio Pochettino faces a significant decision regarding the starting striker position, considering the return of Broja from a long-term injury. While Broja was substituted against Fulham, Jackson is likely to start at Turf Moor. However, Jackson will be under pressure to perform and retain his position, with Broja eager to demonstrate his capabilities and compete for a starting role.
