I am 100% in agreement that Jackson is a baller. He is absolutely getting better and his all around game is legit. As he continues to improve, I think we have an absolute baller on our hands. I think a Samu O or Duran type signing for some striker rotation on not crazy wages would be good, but an experienced CB and a legit #1 GK should be our priority signings. We could also play Felix at false 9 to give us a bit of a different look in certain games I think Nkunku prolly needs to be sold for his sake in the summer bc he doesn’t fit the Maresca system, obv he is a baller but his profile doesn’t mesh with the personnel/system. He’s not starting over our boy 🥶 Palmer, Nkunku kinda sucks on the wing and is not a true #9. Kind of a square peg round hole situation with him unfortunately
Jackson has so many attributes that compliment the strategy and players around him. He’s improving aspects of his game too. He looks more clinical and efficient.
We need a striker. Jackson is OK, does well, but it’s like having Furlong and Spencer and then getting Mark Hughes, the quality is noticeably up a level. We get a quality striker and people will notice the difference. Jackson doesn’t have the striker instinct, when the ball goes in the box he doesn’t sniff the right place to go to get the goal.
We fans think too much , in the summer , jackson himself was liking posts linking osimhen to chelsea , like we have plenty of games for enough game time and all top clubs have a good bench too .
Who we bring in, depends on who we can get out imo.. if we can shift the guys that are poor this season.. we will definitely need a striker, cb and goalie. If we can’t then it becomes more complicated.
If you are happy with jackson being your no.1 , you are happy with mediocrity . Do you actually see jackson go head to hesd against defenders like rudiger / araujo / van dijk , he will literally fold . Thats where an osimhen comes in . Who HAS scored goals against chelses in the champions league (with lille ) against rudiger and tomori ,2 tall and physical defenders . Who has wrung out van dijk leading to van dijk fouling him to stop him . Who has scored against barca in champions league knockout rounds . And dont tell me osimhen has become rubbish after a year .... even in his "bad season" he had 15 goals in 25 games which is more than 1 goal every other game , which is amaizng considering napoli as a whole were rubbish . + this year in galatasary ( yes it is the turkish league ) he has 9 goals in last 6 games . 2 against spurs ( a PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM ) . Jackson is great but against low-blocks he goes missing . E,g crystal palace and forest . Thats where osimhen gives you an alternate route . Sancho/ neto / palmer / enzo / james giving a cross in the box against a low block and osimhen will probably score that ir get corner . Jackson can win you battles but not the war .
"And dont tell me osimhen has become rubbish after a year" Osimhen managed to reach "elite" once in his entire career and frankly he's been a bit mediocre every season aside from Napoli's winning season. The hype levels around him is ridiculous. People are coming up with all kinds of silly mythology about how good he is. Meanwhile, Jackson managed to play 3500 minutes for Chelsea last season. When did Osimhen ever manage to play 3500 minutes for his club team? Answer is never. If he can't stay fit for more than 2000-2500 minutes a season in Serie A then he's probably not going to fare that much better in the Prem. And fun fact, last season Jackson had more goal contributions for Chelsea than Osimhen did for Napoli. Want another fun fact? Osimhen has only once in his entire career as a striker managed to do better than Jackson's goal contributions last season. Which was Jackson's first full season as a striker.

we need Osihmen. He is a threat on the air which we dont have at the moment, his present is felt in defences

Jackson does well against a high line with space to run into behind defenders. Bit average without the high line . Come to BlueSky 💙

CFC needs Victor Osimhen because of his physical presence in our opponents box going forward Nkunku n Jackson can be our second striker options

Osimhen will be perfect because chelsea need a Guy very good in the air. With the crosses Osimhen will be perfect
YESS
We need a striker and a gk
No we need Sanchez out and we will be perfect
son of chelsea we need just a gk and experience cb thats all
Marc Guehi and Lucas Chevalier pls Chelsea
We have Broja returning 🙏🏿
If we have to sign a Thuram, we might as well keep Jackson. In don't think Thuram is better than Jackson
Stop Chelsea need a goalkeeper that can give us some clean sheets.
This guy is just waffling lol😂
I don’t wanna be harsh but Jackson is mid. We need a big game prolific striker than can score 20+ per season.

Not to mention , set-piece threat and even helps in defending them . + his leadership and experience will only help ,jackson and the rest of the team
