Nico is delivering those opening goals, which nets me 5 lovely prediction league points and costs Jom a tenner.

Long may it continue  :)

Lol

I think i changed my first scorer from jacko only once but turned out wrong anyway. I knew it wasn't one of our forwards but no way did I imagine it was going to be caicedo!

I honestly believe Salomon Kalou is the greatest comparison and career trajectory for him.

I hope you're right

I'll never understand why people just don't put photos of the players in that image, instead of these generic drawings.

BTW good to see Solanke having a good career.

Where is my daily dose of Jim fawning over Nico?!?

No, No it is not. He plays for Tottenham. A steaming pile of Tottenham. 😠

Nico seems a bit more serious this season. He has stopped dyeing his hair blue and all he needs to do now is stop getting yellow cards for arguing with referees. More focused.  He is not as good as some other strikers, but Nico scores goals. The proof is in the pudding. AND he is passionate about playing for Chelsea [hence the blue hair, etc.].  He is a committed Chelsea player and I don't quite understand the hatred shown towards him sometimes.

I think he could get rested for the Saints match in place of Nkunku. 

His pace will be required against Spurs high line.

I'm not saying I'm pleased it's for Spuds. Some of our most beloved players moved to Totnum. Unfortunately. 

At least Carlo is looking disgusted.

Don't worry Jim. Maresca knows when to rest his best players and when to play them.

Jacko and that clinical finish of his isn't necessary for a very poor Saints side.

CK I think you may have come up with the reason for the irrational hatred for Jackson. Does someone have an Ex with blue hair I wonder?

Carlo came back to us. [Carlo Cudicini is currently a club ambassador and loan player technical coach].

Solanke never actually played a game for us.  We offered him a contract and he chose scousers. 🤮

I’d swap Haaland or Salah in a heartbeat for Jackson but I’m struggling to think of another forward I’d have in the PL.

To be honest I wouldn’t actually swap Salah due to his age.

I like Isak but he’s always injured.

Cuhna (sp) at Wolves looks decent.

i really like Delap but Jackson is ahead of him developmentally. I’d like Chelsea to sign him so both could fight it out to start.

And the Ghanaian lad at Bournemouth also looks decent but Jackso is outperforming them all.

Jackson is doing just fine thanks and anyone with eyes can see he’s going to improve. He already has.

I would not swap Jacko for anyone, nor for all the tea in China. 

I value Jim's happiness way too much.

I remember the RVN at united at his pomp... Was a horrid player to watch and fouled, kicked, elbowed, gave gip to players and referees... Diego costa was a devil in comparison to Van Nistlerooy.... and he used to wind me up wearing our blue cause he was absolutely outrageous in every department, Dennis wise was a permanent a hot head... If it gives him, us an edge Im quite happy for Jackson to carry on his antics - but only if it benefits the team. Thing is, goals will probably help him settle down so hope he bangs in a load more.

oh here we go....comparing the donkey to wisey, costa and RVN!! Lunacy.

Unfortunately Jacksons antics tend not to have the effect that Costa and Dennis the Menace used to have - he is too stupid to do it in a way that actually helps. 

Thankfully he has cut out most of it it over the last few games - as his braindead childish antics helped nobody.

It's the same people that just pick players to hate on without any rational reason so I wouldn't pay much attention to that, everyone seems to be happy with Jackson and I saw Palmer stated that their connection is growing.

Maresca and his staff will know in which direction to take the squad forward.

Yeah it's frustrating....It is equally as frustrating when in reverse, when posters blow smoke out of any particular players arse for no apparent reason. 

There used to be this absolute goon who loved to jerk one out of Jorginho. However bad the useless twat played, the poster would be on here, rubbing his nips and spluttering over his keyboard..... I forget the persons name....

Jeez man, I'm only pleased for an academy product who BTW has the right to pick his own employers. I haven't gone over to the dark side.
