'I miss a lot' - Chelsea star Nicolas Jackson makes honest admission as striker assesses first-ever Premier League season

Premier League

Chelsea

Bournemouth

The Senegalese forward has been accused of being wasteful in front of the goal by <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/nicolas-jackson-chelsea-sitters-man-city-fa-cup/blt6467dbce4a3675df" target="_blank">pundits</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/arsenal-fans-baffled-chelsea-nicolas-jackson-escapes-red-card-challenge-on-takehiro-tomiyasu/bltd7a63739e06dc33f" target="_blank">fans</a>, despite scoring the second-most number of goals for Chelsea in his maiden season at the club. Since joining the Premier League giants last summer, Jackson has netted 13 times across all competitions, 10 less than the team's top goalscorer Cole Palmer.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Now the 22-year-old striker has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/nicolas-jackson-never-didier-drogba-chelsea-answer-darwin-nunez/blt20d7ba8527956131" target="_blank">admitted to his shortcomings</a> as he claimed he 'missed' too many chances and failed to live up to the standards he had set for himself before heading to the Premier League last summer.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking to Sky Sports, Jackson said, "I think I should have scored more with the chances I missed. It’s good, but not what I wanted to be when I came - to play Champions League next season. Everything happens for a reason and we try to fight next year. Even if I scored 10 or 15, the most important thing is for the team to be as high as possible and make the fans happy. Then the goals will come."Trying to improve every day. The most important [thing] is being available for the team, helping the team and playing. I miss a lot but I’m trying to create more chances and score more. Hopefully next year it’s going to be better."

Mauricio Pochettino's side will be next seen in action on Thursday as they take on Tottenham Hotspur in an important Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.
