He no longer had a defined role under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/tag\/enzo-maresca\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Enzo Maresca<\/a>, and with the World Cup next year, he would not have wanted to be on the sideline over the coming months. <\/p>\n<p>But he hasn\u2019t hit the ground running at his new club, yet to open his Bundesliga account. <\/p>\n<p>Following Der Klassiker, Chelsea fans have reacted to his slow start. <\/p>\n<p>One fan says: \u201cDidn\u2019t expect him to be really that bad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another agrees: \u201cHow can you not score at Bayern where everyone eats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If he doesn\u2019t score in this Bayern team <br \/>he isn\u2019t good enough then<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 D_footballreview\ud83d\udea8 (@DFOOTBALLREVIEW) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DFOOTBALLREVIEW\/status\/1980279926491054360?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">October 20, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>View Tweet<\/p>\n<p>Jackson is still officially a Chelsea player, given that he moved to Bayern on loan, but that hasn\u2019t prevented fans of the Blues from heavily criticising. <\/p>\n<p>This fan isn\u2019t surprised Jackson is still goalless, saying: \u201cI knew he wouldn\u2019t succeed there,\u201d while another said on his most recent outing: \u201cNah, someone please mention one positive thing this guy did in the game.\u201d <\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Thought we did a mistake for selling him LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \ud83c\uddf5\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddf7\ud83d\udc99 (@CFCLamps_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CFCLamps_\/status\/1980126599300399534?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">October 20, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>View Tweet<\/p>\n<p>But not all Chelsea fans are so quick to write off their loanee. <\/p>\n<p>As one fan points out: \u201cWhat kind of a weird diss is this, Jackson has only started in 3 games for Bayern so far you\u2019re acting as if we\u2019re 40 games into the season.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>In the same sentiment: \u201cHe is just a back up striker what do you expect?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>A harsh and unhelpful reaction from Chelsea fans <\/p>\n<p>Maybe some fans are forgetting that Jackson is still a Chelsea player. He may have no Bundesliga goals as of yet, but he has played just 185 minutes across his five appearances.<\/p>\n<p>There seems to be some revisionist history going on with Jackson, who scored 24 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/tag\/premier-league\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Premier League<\/a> goals in two seasons, as well as ten assists as he formed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/columnist\/chelsea-could-regret-breaking-up-nicolas-jackson-and-cole-palmer-partnership-for-one-major-reason\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a formidable partnership with Cole Palmer<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Fans were growing tired of that lack of cutting edge, which is fair, but it doesn\u2019t constitute the disrespect Jackson has been on the receiving end of, and not from Bayern fans but from the Chelsea support. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/GettyImages-2224405058-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Nicolas Jackson of Chelsea FC celebrates with gold medal\" class=\"wp-image-316556\" \/>Photo by Mart\u00edn Fonseca\/Eurasia Sport Images\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Bayern have seven wins from seven and already look like winning the title. Jackson, in limited minutes, has been involved, even scoring and assisting in the Champions League. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s every chance Jackson is back at Stamford Bridge next summer, with Bayern under no obligation to buy unless he reaches a certain threshold of appearances. It\u2019s good for Chelsea, whether keeping or selling, for Jackson to hit a good run of form. <\/p>\n<p>Maybe the discourse should reflect that.<\/p>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nicolas Jackson left Chelsea just before the deadline, now plying his trade in Munich for the German champs.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":215250,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,2807,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-215249","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-nicolas-jackson","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom","13":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/215250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
