Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has come on leaps and bounds during his second season at Stamford Bridge
Speaking about Jackson on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football programme, Premier League legend Thierry Henry praised the forward for the progress he has made, despite having big shoes to fill:
“He’s on his way to being that [the real deal] but it’s a long road. One thing that is difficult when you play for a club like Chelsea and teams who are at the top is that you get compared to who was there before. And maybe you’re not the same kind of striker, you’re a different striker, but you’re going to get compared to Drogba”
