Nicolas Jackson sends clear three-word message amid difficult Chelsea run
Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson appears to have hinted he is ready to persevere at Stamford Bridge amid a difficult run of form for the centre-forward.
Jackson is currently in the midst of his longest goal drought of the season having not scored in any of Chelsea's last six Premier League matches. His most recent goal came during the 2-1 victory over Brentford but since then things have dried up for him.
Enzo Maresca has continued to show his trust in Jackson, only dropping him once for Christopher Nkunku in the 2-0 defeat at Ipswich Town. However, the goals have just not fallen for the Senegalese international.

On Monday night, Chelsea returned to winning ways securing their first Premier League win since the three points against Brentford, at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Jackson did have the ball in the back of the net in the second half, but his celebrations were immediately cut short as the offside flag was raised.
After the match, Jackson was quick to focus on his next opportunity rather than worrying on the past. Taking to Instagram, the 23-year-old shared action shots from the match with the caption: "We keep going."
Ahead of the victory over Wolves, Maresca insisted his side did not need to go out and make a statement transfer to replace Jackson. "No, because I think by being a little bit more lucky, we can convert and can score more goals," he told reporters.
"It’s not about [signing] a ‘killer’. In this moment, the one that’s probably missing the goal is Nico.
"But the way he is working is fantastic, and we don’t have any doubt that Nico is soon going to start scoring goals."
