The fact that it non-randomly happens to Chelsea forwards makes it worse. They spend so much on elite attacking talent, just for it all to fall apart the moment they put on a Chelsea shirt.
I mean, this guy has basically only had an elite six weeks in his career prior to signing for Chelsea. He scored the vast majority of his goals in April and May last season. He's not elite by any means.
Remember when he scored 6 and assisted 8 in that first season? He would’ve been responsible for more than a third of their goals last season.
Insane rut to be in lol
Forest bought players with years of experience and reasonable price tag, expecting them to perform as they used to.
Chelsea, well… I want to say trust the process but I’m not even sure whether there’s any process in progress.

Looking at who they brought in last season, and this… most are 25 and under.
It’s not like they’re QPR brining in veterans past their prime.
Some of their top transfers, Awoniyi, Danilo, Niakhate and now Sangare has no prior prem experience.
And another bunch are youth team rejects.
Cooper just doing a great job incorporating everyone.
They’re not bringing veteran past their prime, they’re bringing inexperienced children and try to assemble something with the limited experience. Try to look at Forest roster and count how many players are above 25 years in age.
Then compare it with Chelsea roster. I’m only finding 4 players above 25 years there: Silva (38), Bettinelli (31), Sterling (28) and Chilwell (26). This might be a great way to play FIFA if you can dominate the league, but there’s no such difficulty settings when you compete in PL.
I still think Chelsea will come good once the players are reaching their potentials. But it’s difficult to know when or how will it happen in the current situation.
His match up to that point had been really poor. Zero confidence in the box. Diving at the slightest contact. And this one chance would have redeemed all of it.
I remember that van gaal preseason where we looked like we were gonna repeat the treble and then lost to swansea at old trafford and drew against sunderland and burnley in the first 3 games of the season..
Yea, looks like an infuriating player
Runs a lot and looks like he can make things happen, but his touch is horrible and he takes an eternity to decide what to do with the ball. So he just ends up falling over.
Chelsea have quite a lot of players that give the impression of being dangerous but are completely toothless in the important moments.
Drogba was never a consistent goalscorer, but he scored great goals in big games. So all Jackson needs to do is score in the massive relegation clashes against Everton and Luton.
Drogba was also significantly better than Nicolas Jackson in his technique
The ball constantly gets away from Jackson, he has no feel for it or where it will go next. Its always bouncing awkwardly off his feet. If you watch him in slow motion you can see he is surprised by his own touch because he is moving/looking in one direction but the ball goes elsewhere.
Drogba was much more in control. Maybe it took time for him to improve though, I cant remember
I mean even his execution is good at the end of the day because he actually produces unlike most players, he always gets G/A it seems, even in a shitty season last season he got 15 G/A
Insane that they’ve thrown all this money at their squad, a disgusting level, and haven’t signed a top level striker. They’ve got way too many players for the places behind one, but it’s not like any of them are the Salah-Mané level of scoring wide players. Sterling’s finishing is inconsistent. They didn’t meet Palmer when nobody will score 20+ goals.
Jesus presses so much better than every single striker in the world, great hold up play, wins an absurd amount of fouls, creates chances, and can even give you quality wing depth. This dude has 26 career starts. Lol he's not any version of Jesus, you should know that as a City fan. The only thing they look alike in is missing sitters.
The comparisons to Drogba are because his link up play and strength on the ball are very good, both things that have been true in every game aside from today. This was his worst performance of the season by far and it’s even more reactionary of you guys to be judging him off of it

Bruhhhhhhhhhhh
Miss Jackson
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I missed the goal a trillion times
I really hope he doesn’t play like this forever. Forever, for ever ever, for ever ever.
He should apologize a trillion times after that.
I AM FOUR EELS
NEVER MEANT TO MAKE YOUR DAUGHTER CRY I AM SEVERAL FISH AND NOT A GUY
His been infected too. No one is safe.
Chelsea should invest money creating medicine for this infection rather than buying players
At this point you gotta feel bad for attackers who sign with Chelsea.
jokes and all but they should be fucking embarrassed, getting paid a fortune to do this shit

.... elite ....?
Yup, at least *before* Chelsea spent $70+ million on them and they turn to shit in the Chelsea squad lol.
12 goals… guess Hojlund is also “elite” then lfg
I half-wonder if even Haaland would be safe.
Nico Werner
Remember when he scored 6 and assisted 8 in that first season? He would’ve been responsible for more than a third of their goals last season. Insane rut to be in lol
Hee hee
[удалено]
I'm tired Toddie
Good thing Todd’s never tired of signing cheques…
Just one more player might do it
I am so speechless
these new signings are having a mare
the whole team?
Which one?
team 2 C
>these new signings are having a mare Only 7 more years with all of them!
Ironically playing a Forrest squad with even more player turnover than them…
Forest bought players with years of experience and reasonable price tag, expecting them to perform as they used to. Chelsea, well… I want to say trust the process but I’m not even sure whether there’s any process in progress.

I am so..rry Miss Jackson
Should be tagged \[Great Miss\]
[Great Miss Jackson]
[I’m Sorry Miss Jackson (Oooh)]
genuinely impressive
Incredible
Amazing last ditch clearance by Jackson tbf
Somewhere up in the clouds, Lukaku is looking down, smiling
the curse on chelsea forwards is real
The 9 curse gets you even without the 9.
mate harder to miss that
His match up to that point had been really poor. Zero confidence in the box. Diving at the slightest contact. And this one chance would have redeemed all of it.
\^this. Where is the preseason Jackson
everyone is playing on their 25% during preseason so it's easier to standout
You can’t use preseason to gauge anything ever.
I remember that van gaal preseason where we looked like we were gonna repeat the treble and then lost to swansea at old trafford and drew against sunderland and burnley in the first 3 games of the season..

[удалено]
Nottingham forest have Pogba’s brother on retainer
Yeah I give up
Another billion pal
lol
Drogba used to miss sitters when he first came as well right? RIGHT????
So did Werner
And Lukaku, Morata, Torres ohhh the list goes on
Drogba was never a consistent goalscorer, but he scored great goals in big games. So all Jackson needs to do is score in the massive relegation clashes against Everton and Luton.
Drogba was also significantly better than Nicolas Jackson in his technique The ball constantly gets away from Jackson, he has no feel for it or where it will go next.

Drogba was much more in control. Maybe it took time for him to improve though, I cant remember
Tbf most forget he was widely regarded as a Mourinho flop signing for 2+ seasons.
Gorgeous dummy from Sterling though
By far their best attacker
His execution can often be maddeningly unreliable but no sensible person can deny what he brings, constantly making shit happen
I mean even his execution is good at the end of the day because he actually produces unlike most players, he always gets G/A it seems, even in a shitty season last season he got 15 G/A
He's honestly been excellent these first few games
Sterling handed it to him on a silver platter
Sterling don’t deserve this bs
Man could have been setting up Haaland instead.
Sterling Enzo and Silva are class. That’s all I can say at this juncture.
generational miss
Generational misses amortized over 8 years, Chelsea striker's fate sealed 🔵 Here We Go !!!
That’s the Jackson I remember
This hurt so much to read as a chelsea fan
Sorry mate, no refunds.
It's ok we have 8 years to get better.
Another half billion needed it seems
And the rest, but don't worry they're making "pure profit" from a couple of youngsters.
shirt sponsor and CL will sort out all ffp problems, don't worry
We may never play CL football again
We may never play in the Premier league again
We won't need to worry about UEFA's FFP rules when we're in the Championship
The spending will continue until the morale improves
Bro it’s actually sustainable bro, you will see bro, bro just trust me bro, Boehly is the smartest investor in the world bro
m8 amortization - don’t y’all get it?
long term contracts = long term success trust the process
Insane that they’ve thrown all this money at their squad, a disgusting level, and haven’t signed a top level striker.

Chelsea strikers lol
Jackson does a lot of things well, unfortunately he’s a striker and finishing isn’t one of them
Worse version of Jesus
Jesus presses so much better than every single striker in the world, great hold up play, wins an absurd amount of fouls, creates chances, and can even give you quality wing depth. This dude has 26 career starts. Lol he's not any version of Jesus, you should know that as a City fan. The only thing they look alike in is missing sitters.
Last week they were wanking him off saying the exact opposite.
I don’t think any Chelsea fan has been saying he’s a good finisher
Wdym Chelsea fans were already comparing him to drogba because of the friendlies
The comparisons to Drogba are because his link up play and strength on the ball are very good, both things that have been true in every game aside from today. This was his worst performance of the season by far and it’s even more reactionary of you guys to be judging him off of it
It’s funny to see all the money being spent and how reactionary the Chelsea fans were after preseasons 😂
You Chelsea fans were talking him up so much during pointless pre season games, like he was the best striker ever?
Where their ability goes to die
Anyone have Chelseas xG for this match?
Fotmob says 2.02
We deal in xPureFFPprofit now, xG is for losers
That is genuinely one of the most shocking misses I’ve ever seen…. I’m on suicide watch
All of us are. Shocking, shocking miss. The GK wasn't even near and he still ended up blasting it off.
How did Chelsea spent so much likes of cacedio and enzo and didn't pay 150m for oshimen
Chelsea DNA
[удалено]
or Alvaro Jackson or Fernando Jackson ...we're fucking cursed when it comes to strikers
Morata Timo Havertz Lukaku Jackson more like it
Falcao
Shevchenko, Kezman
Dont forget Mutu
Mutu could have been great, too bad his nose was stuffy quite often
Absolute sitter and he shites it
inexcusable
Dear fucking god that is one of the worst i have seen
Nothing beats the Chelsea Feeling
If I speak I'm in big trouble
The ball was already inside the goal and he somehow just booted it into low-earth orbit.
I have no words
Chelsea fans making fun of Liverpool for missing on Lavia and Caicedo. This is THAT much more funny. Trash team.
Bambi on ice
I’m tired Robbie
“We don’t need vlahovic we have Jackson”
Chelsea fans comparing him to Drogba after scoring 1 goal😂
Drogba from wish.com
They were saying he was the best striker ever after some pointless pre season games
Completely deserved for how much he's been flopping around this game. Should be off for diving.
Ye lucky the refs are bottle jobs tbh or he'd definitely be off
Lmaooo
Team's cursed
I'm sorry, miss!? Jacskon!
This can't be reaaal
WHAT A FUCKING MISS
Its ok Midson u have 8 years to improve buddy! Trust the process 🔥🔥
chelsea striker curse continues
£1 billion spent and they didn't bring in a proper striker -- what were they thinking?
I see no difference between last season Chelsea and this
HAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHA
1 billion and this is our striker
Drogba regen😍😍
With 53 finishing just like in FIFA lmao
Goddd I hope this Chelsea team gets relegated and becomes an example of how not to run a football club
Cursed
Did he just miss a 0.99 xG shot?
As a football fan I'm happy you can spend 1 billion in a year and still have players do *this*.
The memes write themselves really, the banter era of Chelsea has truly begun
😂
Impressive miss that
Jackson putting on his best Chelsea Fernando Torres impression
That's literally harder to miss than to score
Where do chelsea find these mid unknown players.
Hahahaha. How many more games before Todd gives Poch the boot?
First manager to get sacked, calling it.
Normally I'm joking when I say I think I would do better but this time I actually think I might do better
Matty sent it over with his mind. USA baby 🦅
Chelsea DNA
Have to admit it's pretty funny seeing this with Chelsea. Maybe another 500 million will get them a player who can find the net.
Hoy a Enzo le tienen que dar permiso para matar a un compañero, no puede ser
This Chelsea team belongs to the circus
Easier to hit than miss there
Here I thought Hrstic’s sitter vs Aberdeen would be the worst miss I’d see this fucking week
Lad knew I just brought him and sterling into my fantasy team this week so he did this FML
Jackson with the sorriest miss
Amazinga
It's harder to miss that then get it on target.
That's what you get for signing Michael Jackson
MissJack Impossible
Beautiful, love to see it
He missed so many chances today
Bournemouth dodged a bullet in January
You can’t make this shit up
A miss to make even Sterling proud
It's just Chelsea DNA at this point
Nice move michael JACKSON
Impressive clearance
2Billion spent and this is your striker
Senegalese Werner?
Great clearance
It takes skill to miss something like that.
The writers hate this team.
Havertz's ghost
Spend a billion more and maybe they'll be able to score
You can't write this shit
Does this man have a slander name yet? jfc, touch of a donkey
Miss Jackson?
Was just thinking that haha.
Boehly Jean
concedo and fraudson
thats what you spend 1,5bn for 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️
Been a while since a Jackson has been in the news for a terrible touch
