It was entertaining and there were so many impressive performances, particularly from the guys in a Chelsea shirt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>&#8216;Jackson I agree, I was critical of his lack of movement a few weeks ago.\u00a0<\/span>I got a text from Chelsea to say that they didn&#8217;t think it was over the top and that they have been working on one or two things in and around that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He was a lot better today and full of confidence after what happened earlier in the week and that showed today.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It was a great game for everyone to watch. I think for the fans that is important to see those small steps. The coaching, we all know what Poch is like, he is a very good coach and he is the right man.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They are definitely improving and they seem to be understanding what he wants.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Since Shearer&#8217;s original comments, Jackson scored a hat-trick during their 4-1 win over Tottenham and a crucial goal during their thrilling 4-4 draw with Man City.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of October, however, Jackson&#8217;s luck in front of goal was in complete contrast and led to Shearer lambasting his performances for the Blues.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/13\/11\/77734659-12743005-image-a-3_1699875252929.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Jackson scored a crucial goal during Chelsea&#8217;s 4-4 draw with Manchester City on Sunday<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8216;To be more prolific you have to get yourself into scoring positions. There was a complete lack of movement from him today. Sometimes you have to make the run for the defender and for yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He looks very raw and at times unsure what to do. He&#8217;s just waiting for something to happen, you have to do it yourself sometimes. You&#8217;ve got to work, you&#8217;ve got to make defenders work, you&#8217;ve got to try to pull them around.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Goalscorers don&#8217;t hang around at the edge of the box like he does. He&#8217;s got to accept that the ball comes in, it&#8217;s his job to get on the end of it. They were never, ever going to score today with that. It looks as if he needs a lot of help in that position.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Jackson&#8217;s recent goal haul has proved crucial to his early start to life in West London, having initially struggled after making the \u00a332million move from Villarreal.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12743005\/Alan-Shearer-reveals-message-Chelsea-pundits-criticism-Blues-forward-Nicolas-Jackson-Match-Day-host-slammed-striker-lack-movement.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alan Shearer reveals message from Chelsea following pundit&#8217;s criticism of Blues forward Nicolas Jackson &#8211;
