Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson has issued a strong response to criticism from former Blues midfielder, Mikel Obi, telling the ex-blues player to “shut his mouth.”

Mikel had criticized Jackson following the Senegalese’s underwhelming performance against Manchester City last Sunday, claiming that Jackson missed too many chances, and suggesting that Chelsea should consider g Victor Osimhen as an alternative.

Jackson answered his critics on the pitch by scoring Chelsea’s opening goal in their 6-2 victory over Wolves, marking the club’s fastest Premier League goal since 2017.

The Senegalese celebrated after scoring during the Premier League match between Wolves and Chelsea FC at Molineux.

Following the match, He took to social media to address Mikel’s comments directly.

“Mikel Obi, shut your mouth, don’t talk sh*t, we are killing ourselves for Africa,” Jackson wrote in a post on Instagram, making his feelings about the criticism clear.

The forward headed in at the back post inside the opening two minutes for Chelsea’s first goal.

Jackson is just an average attacker, he should have another top poacher who turns half chances into sure goals.

See that Jao Felix last goal for example, top drawer stuff, no sme sme.

Useless club filled with touts whether ex players, current players or fans.


Spits*

Osimhen isn't really suited for the Premier League. He should stick with Napoli, please. As for Mikel, he should consider coaching instead of talking nonsense. Football isn't an easy game, after all. How many goals and assists did he even manage in his career? Just leave our Jackson alone—we love him.

Mikel don dey talk too much

Ontop one lucky goal 🥅 you manage score
Jackson would have missed 2 of those goals that Madueke scored today..

Is Madueke not your mate?

Jackson is not clinical, he should work on himself and stop being unnecessarily petty...

So Jackson won compare himself to Mikel

mikel is a Chelsea legend.
Fact, argue with your phone.
Jackson is good, osihime better.

Ehen?
.
Be like that Jackson no get respect for elders o but e sha no concern me😂

All that Obi said about Jackson might be true, especially as he is a striker, but make we no lie, is this not the same Mikel Obi that will shoot the ball to score but the ball will head towards the corner flag?

Mikel Obi always had a shooting problem since his under 17 days when we could not qualify from the group stage of the FIFA under 17 world cup, losing out on the 2nd place in the group to Costa Rica, after both countries finished as t 2nd place and a fair chance lot was drawn to determine who would be considered as 2nd.

Mikel Obi and Promise Isaac the captain just dey waste ball anyhow in all the matches we played in the group. Even till his Chelsea and Super Eagles career, once Obi shoot ball, goalkeeper go just look the ball for corner flag without any need to dive.

They go soon gather beat Mikel obi
