Was anybody expecting differently?

Certainly no one here Val, but I am sure Jackson himself was. Who knows? Maybe he will return from this chastening experience with a burning desire to improve in all areas, and a much more humble attitude.

Then again, he probably won't.

Bring him home.

If we stand any chance of maintaining our exemplary Red Card run into next season a fit Nicholas Jackson rotating with Liam Delap is key to that success.

Hang on .

I thought we were doing a "great bit of business" by offloading him to Bayern with a commitment to buy ?

Who would have thought he wouldn't get a look in when their centre forward is a bloke called Harry Kane ? Or that we wouldn't be able to pull a fast one over a club like Bayern Munich? .

Btw when's Mudryk coming back to entertain us out on the left wing ?

Sent off in the 41st minute. You can take the boy out of Chelsea, but never Chelsea out of the boy

Could be just the spark we need.

Honestly it was a mistake to let him go on loan. We definitely could have done with him seeing how sh*t Delap is.

Delap makes Jackson look like prime Drogba.

If I remember correctly he wasn't happy with us signing Joao Pedro and Delap, and pushed for a permanent move. Then the move fell through and we rushed through a loan at the last minute. Question is whether there is any chance that we could repair the relationship with Jackson and bring him back next season? He did manage double figures in league goals both seasons he was with us.

Not a chance! Wouldn’t even go there. He looks mentally broken. What those numbers don’t tell you is he had zero competition, and was playing every minute.

Agreed. Bringing Jackson back would just be more sh*t on top of sh*t.

I can see him returning at the end of his loan at Bayern. Then our commercial geniuses will fail to sell him, meanwhile he will be encouraged to train with the squad. More commercial shenanigans, even more failed sale attempts and at the end of the window he either gets a squad number or another loan. Which the SDs will describe as an excellent plan.

The only way I think Jackson would work is if we brought Joao Felix back to play alongside him. All in favour say "aye".

No rush. The End of Season Tottenham fire sale will be starting soon. Solanke and Richarlison available, both better than Jackson. Another better alternative, the evergreen Danny Welbeck. And why didn't we bring home Tammy A? Che Adams, Dawn French, Diane Abbott. There's literally thousands of available options who would be a better centre-forward than Jacko.

How about Liam Delap and Marc Guiu?

BM have confirmed he will be returning to Chelsea.

TBh, cant really say I rate either to take us to the next level. Jackson has outscored Pedro every season until this one... Pedro has scored but has patchy form. Sings and roundabouts.

Who is better? What about Freekicks, number of shots on target and Playmaking? Check out if Jackson or Pedro is over all more valuable for the team

It's not Pedro -v- Jackson, it's Delap -v- Jackson.

Disaster of a loan barring the money we got for it. I'd be surprised if we made a profit on what we signed him for.

Which the answer is f**king obvious.

Why are we still talking about this clown. He has gone, and he should never be putting on a chelsea shirt again.

Delap every day of the week. Jackson is rubbish.

Jackson is rubbish, but Delap is barely a footballer at all. They're both terrible and should both be sold in the summer.

Delap has 2 goals in all comps.

2 f**king goals. Outscored by Gusto

It’s incredibly disingenuous to put Delap and Jackson in the same category given the latter will at least give me double digits.

He's averaging a G/A every 90 minutes for Bayern Munich. There should be a tonne of clubs wanting to pay 40-50m for him.

I don't know how you define this loan as a disaster.

I would very very happily have him back in the squad next year as backup. No chance our muppets sign anyone as good as him for the budget we probably will have.
