Nicolas Jackson was hanging his head despite the fact that Chelseabeat Spurs. The Blues ended up securing a crucial 4-3 victory. The 23-year-old striker has begun the new season in sensational fashion. He did struggle a lot in his early days for the club. His conversion rate was not the best. But, the striker has really worked on his game and it is showing this campaign. In fact, he has been very consistent in front of goal this term. So much so that he has managed to bench Christopher Nkunku, who is now on top fitness levels. It just goes on to show how good the 23-year-old has been.
Nicolas Jackson hangs his head
The striker did not have the greatest of games as Chelsea beat Spurs. Despite his team scoring 4 times, he was not involved in any of the goals. As a result, he was unhappy with himself. And so fans would spot him hanging his head in the stands. Nicolas Jackson is hardly to blame here. He has certain expectations and goals to meet. It is of no surprise given the form that he has been in lately. As per transfermarkt, he has 11 goal contributions in 15 appearances for Chelsea this season.
Mixed reactions from the fans
Fans are mostly content with Jackson’s reaction. In fact, some even applaud his mentality. At the same time, some believe that he should not be too hard on himself and celebrate with the team. Even Marc Cucurella made two fatal mistakes at the back. But he would also join the team in their victory celebrations. All in all, it should work both ways. If you’re going to be hard on yourself for not doing good, you should also praise yourself when you do good. At the same time, you can have some breathing room after all. Hopefully, Nicolas Jackson will recover soon and be back amongst the goals.
