The only decent game I can recall Jackson having this season was West Ham away. That got everyone excited and we thought is this the Jackson we've been waiting for. Regrettably, that was a false dawn and he has reverted to type and possibly got even worse.

I know the team appear to play better with Jackson in it, but that is only because we literally have zero alternatives. The sooner we get a striker worthy of the name the better so Jackson can take his rightful place - which is on the bench.

Jim, you dont talk about how good or bad a player is, you simply bash the player.

you have called him uneducated, donkey, all manner of other slurs... I guess you do so to make yourself feel better... But FYI, i still think youre a total bell end with a mental health disorder, given your obsessional levels of criticism. It isnt normal...

Clearly there isnt anything wrong with the player in question - just what is going on in your head and your belief that shouting down random folk on a forum will change the outcome of Jackson starting football matches for the club you say you support.

its been more than 12 months of you being a hysterical queen shouting continued nonsense.

What are you hoping to achieve with your bouts of hysteria?

and funny, when someone insults you you come on here to defend yourself... Jackson who you've been trolling for nearly two years doesnt get that right. So Again says more about you than the player.

Anyhow... Go polish some head - seems to have worked for a number of friends of mine down the years all exhibiting your bizar behaviour and patterns of hatred... ;-)

Jog on and dont look back

If I could clone Nicolas Jackson I'd bench him twice

Come on Nibs - that’s not fair. Please try not to be so hyperbolic!

He also had that 7 min spell against Newcastle and 15 mins against Leicester.

Come on UB, you are not a stupid person - I have answered your question multiple times already.

He should be dropped for ANYONE else that we have at the club. I can’t say it more categorically.

As I said multiple times, if the answer is “Nicolas Jackson” then you are asking the wrong questions. If you genuinely believe that Jackson is our best striker (he isn’t) then you need to change the style and system and play without a striker.

Stop dancing around the question.

Name your preferred attack without Jackson in it.

We played without a striker when he was injured, that was sh*t too. You avoid the question because you know we're better in attack with Jackson in the line up.

I have told you, countless times, that I don't care who plays - as long as it is not Jackson. Why you choose not to listen, and continue to ask the same question over and over again, is beyond me.

You keep thinking in the mindset of like for like subs, but I am not. Instead, I want the manager to select a team that gets the best out of his best players, and sets the team up to support those best players to deliver. For me that is James, Caicedo, Palmer, and probably Nkunku. If that means not playing a traditional 9, then so be it. If it means playing Donnell McNeilly up front, then so be it. If that means playing 3, 4 or 5 at the back, then so be it. I DONT CARE.

Jim, I have a lot of patience for lots of different views, but given you couldn't debate a single point, I raised about a footballer, choosing to turn on another random person, again shows what a little princess you actually are when you're own troubled views are pointed out to you.

Feel free to call me what you want, im beyond caring at this point cause I just think your a massive queen so go ponce about some place.

So once again, how would you line up.

Your opinion is based on an illogical hatred of Jackson rather than what is best for the team.

No - my view is based on what I think is the best for the long term success of the club.

I do not believe that Jackson is good enough for chelsea. Neither do many others on here. Given this view point, I would prefer we stop the charade and drop him with immediate effect effect.

The same with Sanchez. The same with Disasi. The same with Baddy. The same with KDH.

As I have said what feels like hundreds of times, I don't care who we select to replace these dropped players - nor do I think it necessarily matters. What is more important is that the style and system is changed to get the best out of our best players. The remaining can slot in around them. Reece as wingback (world class), Palmer as wide right (world class), Caicedo as the engine (world class), Nkunku up front as part of a front 2 (world class). Instructing the team to progress the ball up the pitch quickly. Wide wing backs bombing forward, pulling defenders wide, which in turn leaves space in the middle.

But ultimately - I don't care who plays. Just choose the players who can genuinely be world class, and let the serviceable supporting cast (Collwill, cucu, chalobah, enzo, madueke, neto) all fit around them, with the aim of getting the best out of our best players.

Thanks for all of your helpful contributions today, which has included:

✅Multiple references speculating to my mental health

✅multiple references to "glory holes"

✅name calling ("massive queen", "hysterical queen", "drama queen", "total bellend with a mental disorder")

✅nonsense aggressive directions ("go ponce around some place", and "go polish some head", "jog on and don't look back")

✅ outright abuse (you who looks like a thick, uneducated donkey, it is pathetic").

Just imagine if I genuinely did have mental health issues (or if you genuinely believed I did)....Do you think your supportive words would be helpful?

How is this kind of thing allowed on here?

how does playing without a striker help our long term success? We score 0.83 more goals when he's on the pitch and +0.93 net goals. If you were interested in the success of the team, you'd be campaigning for him to start every game. This is clearly just a personal childish vendetta.

Sanchez we can play Jorgensen. Disasi we have Chalobah/Fofana. Badiashile we have Colwill. KDH we have Enzo and Caicedo. For Jackson there is no one. One day this may sink into your thick skull, but i won't hold my breath.

So you want to play James at wing back (back 5?), a two man strike partnership with Nkunku (not sure who you think the other one would be other than Jackson?), and Palmer wide right (even though you want to play a back 3 it seems?). Yeah stick to ice hockey or NFL or whatever you Americans consume.

Exactly!! So stop trying to ask who should replace him, and instead, start broadening your perspective and look at how else to get the best from our remaining players, who are good enough to make it here in the long term....

Sadly, despite blocking you, I can see some of your bile in the latest comments.

I dont blame Jackson being asked to lead the line for us. He has many merits and I'm looking around the squad and wondering who could do it? There isnt, therefore, Jackson leads the line and despite all your illogical nasty bile laden rants, Jackson still plays as striker.

Does this make you feel inferior or make you feel stupid that despite more than 12 months of shelling out abuse as a anti-CFC player hater he's still leading the line for us...

In his absence who stepped up and led the line out of our entire squad?

Yeah, nobody.

The show must go on, your glory hole opens in an hour so best go get yourself ready...

I'd certainly like to have seen Guiu given a run of games to have a go. Works harder than Jackson, brave young fecker, has a real go in the air. There's a lot to like about him, but unfortunately he got injured at the wrong time.

We cannot, under any circumstances whatsoever, continue with Jackson as our starting centre-forward next season. Same with Sanchez in goal.

Well done avoiding all other points made.

Who is going to partner Nkunku up top in this back 3 that also plays with wide wingers?

f**k me - you are like a broken record. What part of I don’t care, or think it matters, don’t you understand?

Play Guiu, or Madueke, or Neto, or Maureen the tea lady for all I care. Or what about McNeilly - the young striker who led the line beautifully when the kids beat the first team (including Jackson?) a couple of weeks ago. All workable options, and players who actually have a future for the club. But for the 57th time, I don’t care - the most important thing is getting the best out of the best players, and a system and style of play that suits them.

Agree with that... Guiu injury kind of typifies all that is wrong with the board, the fact they also haven't reinforced or given Maresca an option has left us desperately short, criminal to go into the season with two strikers given Nukunku's injury record and the fact hes not a striker.

I see Jackson as a Mane type player tbh... said it months ago... but in the absence of anyone being able to do the job, we have Jackson. Since Maresca got his ideas across, we've virtually stopped scoring so Im not holding Jackson to blame for that, in the same way I dont with Palmer who cant hit a barn door right now. No one is calling Palmer a donkey or unintelligent, thick or stupid or using tropes against him, Im also of the opinion that our wingers will become lively once not playing in a Maresca formation...

the level of abuse/vitriol aimed at Jackson is frankly disgusting by Jim, You judge people on their actions and what they say... Jim lives in a f**king dustbin. Vile pathetic cowardly creature who admitted earlier in the season on this thread he wouldnt say anything to Jackson's face. Basically a total c**t and keyboard warrior. f**k him. fan, nah a total queen more like it.

For his faults, there were many, Poch got us scoring, yes we played awful at times, but we were competitive in so many more games because of the goal threat this team carries that it no longer doesn't.

Blame players all we want, but the fault lies at the feet of the manager, in the same way we struggled to score under Tuchel when our full backs got injured, or under potter when we played much like Maresca does now.

Anyhow, this season is pissing me off, so going to leave it hear just read on from the background. Enjoy the rest of another sh*t season at CFC. looking forward to test cricket and summer heat, not even bothering with the CWC... Dump Maresca and or his tactics these players start performing.

I think what I actually said was that my son liked Jackson, and if I met him whilst with my son, I wouldn't say anything that would turn the situation ugly and spoil the moment for my lad....

I might be wrong, but I think that was the context your current post misses....

I don't live in a dustbin. I live in a small 3 bedroom villa, with front and back garden, and a small pool. I am currently overseas due to work - so it is rented.

Jackson is the worst player to play for (I use the word for loosely - as he is mostly a hinderance) chelsea in living memory. He doesn't deserve to be in the squad. The sooner he leaves the better. Brain dead, Pathetic, Donkey who would be better sticking to his MO of begging tarts for titty pics than trying to play football....

Good boy - taking a break from posting on this forum is probably a good thing for you. I think you need to decompress - as you have been posting some right nonsense today. Go back to the basement and chillax....

Jackson absolutely destroyed bournemuth defense almost single handedly

I don't understand the hate on Jackson. Many said isak is better but as Isak had played 3 full seasons a st in Sociedad before coming here, Jackson on the other hand is a converted winger who started half a season for Villarreal. So he has many flaws but he has improved tremendously since first time he was here.

But this is the reality of our strategy. I said last season and I will say it now, most top team usually go for player who is just 1 step away from being ready, they won't go for player who are 2/3 step away unless they are very cheap. They usually let team like Brighton do that.

But our board has different strategy because they want to maximize their return. That is fine but as a result some of this player will play minutes/role that they are not ready for and it will take them longer to reach high level.

Jackson is not the only one and won't be the last. We have a pipeline of young player that blueco has prepared.
