Mauricio Pochettino slammed Alan Shearer for his criticism of Nicolas Jackson but conceded that the Blues striker is performing below expectations.
The 22-year-old former Villarreal forward has struggled to find consistency since his summer arrival at Chelsea, scoring just three goals in 11 appearances. His rough patchShearer was critical of Jackson's performance and hit out at the striker for his "complete lack of movement" and emphasised that "goalscorers don’t hang around on the edge of the box like he does" since their primary role is to be in a position to find the net.
Pochettino acknowledged that he saw the Match of the Day analysis and admitted that although he recognised some of the criticism during the Brentford match, he warned Shearer to stop making judgments based on a single game.“I nearly said no, but I cannot lie ! That is what we were talking about at half-time. About to expose the space," he told reporters.
The Argentine manager continued to defend Jackson and added: "I think that Nico, if you watch the game against Liverpool or Dortmund in pre-season, or Luton, he was doing what the analysis was about and what we expect. But for different circumstances, Nico is not at his best today. For different circumstances, but we need to recover the player that was."But it’s really dangerous this type of analysis because it’s one game. I cannot lie, it wasn't his best but we need to be fair.
"Maybe players with more time than Nico, they are not performing in the way that we expect. But the club believes it is possible to perform. That is why we cannot be unfair in the analysis because he was frustrated from the beginning for different circumstances. But we need to give time, for sure he has the conditions."
