Chelsea fans have been vocal about the club’s need for a proven striker following Nicolas Jackson’s recent struggles in front of goal. The forward has failed to score in his last four Premier League games, contributing to the Blues’ poor form and their apparent fall out of the title race.

Many supporters are calling for the signing of Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap, a 20-year-old striker who has scored eight goals and provided two assists in 19 Premier League appearances this season.

Delap’s physicality, clinical finishing, and adaptability have caught the eye, with fans believing he could be the answer to Chelsea’s No. 9 woes.

Here’s what Chelsea supporters are saying:

VdykCFC: “Chelsea NEED to sign Liam Delap. Proper #9 who strikes the ball with venom and has a brilliant all-round game. He’s everything that Jackson isn’t; he could genuinely be one of the best ST’s in the world at a top club – Joe Shields, I’m asking you for another favour…”

CFC_Morgan: “Jackson and Delap are a perfect partnership. Both different and offer a different output and a different dimension. We can go into every game knowing we have someone up top to hurt the opposition – for example, high line Jackson, low blocks Delap. We have the options, great competition.”

EkkoSnipez: “Imagine he’s just 20 and built like that. Man’s a machine, was very impressive by him against us, and he’s getting goals at a team that most likely will be relegated.”

Keeny_Kingsley: “Yes, I 100% agree. A proper 9 that just needs half a chance to shoot.”

Durbi Joseph: “I said it before, Delap is good—far better than Jackson. Jackson is good, but his finishing is poor ever since I knew him from Villarreal. He’s not a finisher.”
