Creating a Nico Jackson MONSTER & why Chelsea finally have Kante Mark II

Chelsea legend John Obi Mikel delivers his verdict after his former side’s 3-0 at West Ham. He devours a huge slice of humble pie after Nicolas Jackson’s two-goal showing plus he can’t hide his excitement as Moisés Caicedo finally shows his true colours.
As for Arsenal’s gamesmanship against Manchester City, John is under no illusions they learnt from the best: his Chelsea side - the original masters of the “dark arts”.

[@kennethumeadi8205]

😂😂😂. Nice one👍

[@ugososten9649]

You must always find a away to take the credit away from Jackson. Now you give it to Mikel. Many other fans attacked him all last season even though it was his first in the premier League, still young in his senior football career and scoring good number of goals in a team that every member was struggling. I give Jackson all the credit 100%.Thr other person who deserves credit is Enzo Maresca

Mikel Please criticize Madueke's selfishness. He is the bad egg trying to mess up the togetherness in the team.

[@Furykidxxx]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who bangs about it, great talent - absolutely selfish and that's probably why owners were willing to sell him in the summer. But I can assure you, when Estevao Willian arrives - he's a goner.

[@Onyeka_Henry10]

Aswear down, Madueke needs rehabilitation... He is too childlike. 15% team work

[@Cloud007.]

Noticed that also I must say. He doesn't seem happy for others when they score. Wants that for himself, not the team. Just my impression.

[@davidorem7250]

I like obi for being realistic and nor being hater just speaks the truth🔵🔵

[@ShinnaDEW]

The 3rd goal just showed how much he clicks with Cole Palmer. He knows he is behind him coming with pace. Short look over the shoulder. Seeing Cole is crossing into the central slightly right side. Drifting just those 2 to 3yrds himself to the left. Cole is crushing into that slightly more open gap and Nico taking a well timed pass for an assist. He could have tried for a hattrick. But he respected Coles having a better chance to score and gave him the assist. Also keep in mind 18 months ago a was a leftwinger at Villareal in Spain. When Villareal lost their starting 11 striker due to injury Nico got played in the 9. And he had like 10-12 games in that new role. Before he went to Chelsea. He doesnt have that "naturel killer instinct" in front of goal. He needs time to develop his convertion rate.He might never turn into a realy clinical striker. But he will by put into that "elite/worldclass braket". Its not just his G/A. He is always making runs to drag defenders/opponents out of position. Creating space for his teammates. Never realy tiered of pressing. Droping back and help with being an outlet during build up.

[@kennyCFC]

Mikel has proper lit a fire under nicos arse since hes comments 😂

[@Furykidxxx]

Good, that's how the real characters come out and prove everyone wrong, Nico is one heck of a character, I believe
