Jackson has been a good finisher this season too, with 6.65 total xG and 7.48 xG on Target. So he increases his chances of scoring with his shot placement.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson has also overtaken Hernan Crespo and Fernando Torres&#8217; Premier League goal tallies. But there&#8217;s another former Chelsea striker that people will obviously draw comparisons too.<\/p>\n<p>When Jackson first arrived at Chelsea, some fans will have been playing close attention to the shirt number he picked. As a striker, the No.9 is a dream. At Chelsea, though, it&#8217;s a nightmare.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea haven&#8217;t had much luck when it comes to No.9s since Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink left. Crespo and Torres both donned the number at Stamford Bridge and while they had their moments, there were problems. Other No.9s for Chelsea include Mateja Kezman, Franco Di Santo, Steve Sidwell, Alvaro Morata and, of course, Khalid Boulahrouz.<\/p>\n<p>Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was the last to wear the No.9 for Chelsea, with none of the arrivals in the past two summers wanted to take it. Instead, Jackson took the No.15. And those well-versed in Chelsea history will know that the No.15 once belonged to Didier Drogba.<\/p>\n<p>Drogba had No.15 when he first arrived at Chelsea, with Damien Duff holding the No.11. The Ivorian took the vacant No.11 ahead of his third season, and didn&#8217;t really pull up any trees in his first two campaigns.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-page__title\">Dabble sign-up offer: <b data-stringify-type=\"bold\">Bet \u00a310+ &amp; Receive \u00a310 In Free Bets<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><strong>Not signed up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/dabble-sign-up-offer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dabble<\/a> yet?

After 13 games so far this season, Jackson has seven goals and three assists. It&#8217;s likely he&#8217;ll once again better Drogba&#8217;s scoring record, though the assists may take some beating.<\/p>\n<p>Now, no one is comparing Jackson to Drogba &#8212; who led Chelsea to Champions League glory in 2011-12. But Jackson has been a reliable striker for Chelsea.<\/p>\n<h2>Enzo Fernandez makes his statement<\/h2>\n<p>This was also a big match for Enzo Fernandez. The Argentine had lost his place in Chelsea&#8217;s starting XI to Romeo Lavia before the international break. This was made clear by the fact that Fernandez had been starting in Chelsea&#8217;s Europa Conference League team.<\/p>\n<p>Fernandez has been overshadowed in Chelsea&#8217;s midfield by Moises Caicedo, who has had an excellent 2024. Fernandez had had a bridge start to life at Chelsea, but tailed off.<\/p>\n<p>The Argentine has been played in a handful of different roles this season, which hasn&#8217;t helped. He had been tried in the No.10 against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/man-city-premier-league-outright-odds-squad-tactics-signings\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Manchester City<\/a>, and then deeper as part of the double pivot.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez&#39;s game by numbers vs. Leicester:<\/p>\n<p>7\/9 duels won\u00a0<br \/>5 tackles\u00a0<br \/>5 touches in opp. box<br \/>5x possession won\u00a0<br \/>3 chances created\u00a0<br \/>3 shots\u00a0<br \/>2 fouls won\u00a0<br \/>1 goal\u00a0<br \/>1 assist\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Superb. ?<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LEICHE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LEICHE<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iVgxGsJLKn\">pic.twitter.com\/iVgxGsJLKn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Squawka Live (@Squawka_Live) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Squawka_Live\/status\/1860332903676223673?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 23, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>After the October international break, with Chelsea needing to be more secure, Lavia partnered Caicedo. In the final game before the November international break, Fernandez came off the bench to set up Pedro Neto&#8217;s equaliser in the 1-1 draw with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/arsenal-premier-league-outright-odds-squad-tactics-signings\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Arsenal<\/a>. That came just days after Fernandez had provided a hat-trick of assists against Noah in the Europa Conference League.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up Jackson&#8217;s opener, Fernandez provided assists in back-to-back Premier League games for the first ever time. Across all competitions, it&#8217;s three matches in a row. He&#8217;s also scored and assisted in the same Premier League game for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>And Fernandez proved to be the match winner, heading home late on to make it 2-0 &#8212; before Leicester pulled a goal back with an injury-time penalty. It was a lovely ghosted run into the box, putting him in the right place after Jackson&#8217;s initial header had been saved.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think we have looked more balanced with Lavia and Caicedo in,&#8221; Cole said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Enzo was the player to fall foul of that, he lost his place. But what he brings is a quality, a class. He&#8217;s more probing with his passing than the other two.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He does everything well, which is what you&#8217;d expect from a World Cup winner. He needed this game for himself and his confidence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Like Caicedo, he played six months in Europe and someone bought him for \u00a3100 million in the Premier League. That&#8217;s a big burden on young shoulders. And then you win the World Cup and that adds to the burden.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You come to a different country and a different manager in a club which was in turmoil, let&#8217;s be honest, there was a lot of change at Chelsea. He&#8217;s come in and he needed time to bed in and adjust.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nicolas Jackson once again proved that he can lead the line for Chelsea as he helped the Blues beat Leicester City 2-1 on Saturday afternoon.
