In the last 2024/25 season, Chelsea’s turnaround is not spectacular. If you are a Chelsea fan, we know that we will be happy after the shocking 23/24 season. And finally, Chelsea’s favorite money is paid.
Under the leadership of ENZO MARESCA, more than 37 goals are used to use more road house play styles, and they are competitive and voluminous on multiple fronts.
But at the center of this change is Senegal’s striker Nicholas Jackson, which is the core asset of Blues. But there is still a problem. Did he actually secure himself in Chelsea?
Many start
It is safe to say that Nicholas Jackson played an important role in helping Chelsea achieve the season goals. He may not be as interested as Cole Palmer, and we have to say ‘Cold’Palmer, but he’s spending an amazing season. He scored nine times and recorded three assists in the domestic competition, and is most consistent with his contribution.
In important games such as facing West Ham and defeating 3-0, his goal scores scored two points and helped Col Palmer to become an important member of the team.
Jackson, who scored three goals in 2024 alone, is reliable and Chelsea’s best bone marrow is not surprising.

Tactics
ENZO Maresca is the maximum of his potential Jackson is because of tactical approaches.
Pochettino has shared his goals with all players in the first season, but now under Enzo, the target with Palmer’s attack Chelsea team has been played as a player.
According to this, the average number of touches per game decreased, but the number of touches per game increased by 20.7% compared to the 14.7% last season.
It was an absolute nightmare for the defenders to combine his aggressive style and his pressure. That’s why Jackson is essential for the rapid play style of Maresca.
Compare Jackson with the elite
Based on his statistics this season, it is fair to say that Jackson is sitting between the elites.
Jackson took second place in Erling HAALAND for 90 minutes out of the 14th players. He also recorded 19%of the non -federal attempt, which is much more than the best players considered.
He had a few inconsistencies, but he missed some opportunities, but his result is still good anyway.
A space for improvement
One important thing that Maresca emphasizes is that it should be more efficient in one -on -one finishing situation and linkup play. Jackson will compete more than himself to improve the attack unit by signing Victor Osimen in the window in January.
This can make him more effort or test his functions to maintain his position as the first choice striker. But as they said, the competition should be able to increase its excellence and Jackson will be able to go to the event with the willingness to learn from Marska. If he achieves these requirements, he will be an accurate type of player to dominate and complete the role of the striker in the team.
Undoubtedly, Nicolas Jackson was essential to all you can imagine this season. His goal contribution and his work rate were considered to be Chelsea’s essential assets in the ENZO Maresca era. He can still do what he does. But the way in the future looks bright for him.
