After all said and done about Nicolas Jackson, the Chelsea striker always finds a way to deliver.

Jackson scored in the 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace to make it his second of the season.

Despite all the criticisms of the young striker, Nicolas Jackson has now scored 16 non-penalty goals in the Premier League since he arrived Chelsea ahead of the 2023-24 season.

Interestingly, Jackson’s tally is actually as many as what Liverpool ace Mo Salah has managed during the period too.

What is even more surprising is that Jackson ’s 16 non-penalty goals are what Bukayo Saka and Marcus Rashford have managed combined together since last year.
