Nicolas Jackson, Noni Madueke, and Cole Palmer made headlines for the wrong reasons during Chelsea’s 6-0 victory over Everton. With the score at 3-0 and Chelsea awarded a penalty, the three players found themselves in a heated argument over who would take the shot, painting a negative image of the team. Eventually, it was Cole Palmer who took the penalty and succeeded.
As for Jackson’s desire to take the penalty, The Telegraph revealed the reason behind it. According to the newspaper, the Senegalese forward has set a target of scoring 15 goals in the league and 20 goals across all competitions. That’s why when the opportunity presented itself, he wanted to seize it and improve his statistics. Currently, the Senegalese striker has scored 10 goals in the Premier League and 13 goals in all competitions.
