In the latest Premier League clash between West Ham and Chelsea, Senegal international Nicolas Jackson proved his worth as he bagged a superb brace to help the Blues secure a comfortable 3-0 victory.
The former Villarreal star’s impressive performance has now earned him a spot in an exclusive list, as he joins Chelsea legend Didier Drogba with his double.
Jackson’s two goals in the first half took his tally in all competitions this season to four, highlighting his stellar form for the London outfit.
His impressive record this season is reminiscent of his debut year at the club, where he also had a sensational run before receiving criticism for a dip in form. However, the 28-year-old has bounced back strongly and is proving to be an integral part of Chelsea’s attacking threat.
In Saturday’s early kick-off, Jackson’s goals were crucial as they helped the Blues secure an important 3-0 victory over the Hammers. His partnership with fellow striker Palmer proved to be a deadly combination, as they combined to lead Chelsea to a dominant win.
Jackson has now firmly solidified himself as a key player in Chelsea’s squad, and his partnership with Palmer is one to watch out for as the Blues continue their quest for silverware this season.
With his impressive display against West Ham, Jackson has not only joined a prestigious list alongside Chelsea legend Drogba but has also proved his detractors wrong. His contribution to the team has been vital, and fans will be hoping for more brilliant performances from the Senegalese star in the future
