And join Timo? God watching the Spurs Brighton game yesterday afternoon was painful... Timo was through so many times and just panics

Let's not pretend that Jackson would even have been in the right place to connect with that header.

 

I don't think we should pretend we know if he would or wouldn't be there.

Although from his stats rgdn missed chances last season, there's a high chance he would be there and miss it as @nonotnowjim posted. Lol

So far though he has improved this season in that regard. We will never know I guess. I like the rest of you was very surprised nkunku missed it. But mehhhh, sh*t happens. Onwards and upwards guys.

 

Seeing video titles pop up on YouTube about "Nicolas Jackson" and "slap" in the headline.

So rather than watch the videos I figured I would just ask on here. What did you do @nonotnowjim?!?

 

Danger is his middle name.

He is better than Halaand and Palmer. I knew it!! Backs up the "eye test" conclusion.

Methinks  Clearlake, Toddy, Bob, Eggie whoever runs us these days will shortky be making a substantial bid for Yoane Wissa based on that metric. May even bring back Havertz.

He can have an xG of 20 per game....makes no difference if he misses them all.

Imagine what Welbecks would be if he could play us every week.

Fingers crossed he gets banned for this. That might be the catalyst needed for Nkunku to get a run of games....

 

 

Sry bud....lol

However, no action will be taken against Nicolas Jackson after the Chelsea forward appeared to slap, external Forest's Morato, as players from both sides clashed towards the end of the match, which ended 1-1.

I mean - bias aside, how on earth can any player slap another, and not get charged? It is absolutely outrageous.

Probably because they know that Cucurella got a yellow card for no reason

Yeah, I don't know how he got away with it tbh but that's good for us. We don't have a player suspended!

😝

New video footage emerges of Jackson's slap... 

 

Damm 

Some people need a slap.

More of a push than a slap, games gone soft.

That marketing image is no naff and pathetic. It’s like having five sugars in your tea

Another dumb yellow...

Brain dead twat gets another booking for "ungentlemanly conduct", and was anonomous for most of the game. Well taken goal - but he did nothing else positive....

He is a passenger, who makes us worse off.

A well taken goal today but besides that complete anonymous. Very frustrating and should have been subbed early second half.

The service to him in the second half was appalling though, our creativity dropped off a cliff.

He had zero service how many times did we play the ball in behind?

The one time we did he scores!!

Although I  do remember a ball played into him on the edge of their box  which he laid back to Caicedo who was 5 yards away, yet it still nearly cleared his head.

Brain dead yellow again

This...I fealt the whole team gave Liverpool too much respect. He occupied 2 players and Palmer occupied 2 at times but the rest looked scared to go at them, especially in the first half. No speed or intensity from any of the players behind him to step into the space he made. Liverpool were also very quick in closing that space down. I think if palmer alternated between playing more centrally, closer to jackson and playing closer to noni, that would have brought on a lot more linking play and more chances for jacko and noni.

Ah, the old lack of service excuse bring wheeled out! How about he creates something himself? Radical thought I know but I have seen other CFs manage it. Never bothered VVD or Konate in the slightest in the air and rarely engaged in any meaningful physical battles either. A lot of times he didn't even challenge. But he scored. Therefore he played well.

The equivalent logic, Sanchez made some saves, therefore he played well. It's that simples.
