Jackson was heavily scrutinised during his first season at Stamford Bridge despite contributing 17 goals in all competitions.

Neville was among those to urge Chelsea to dip into the market and use Jackson as a back-up…

Phil Jones has claimed that Anthony Martial was ‘always late’ for training and team meetings at Manchester United – and it appears his former team-mate wasn’t overly ‘bothered’ about the repercussions. Having retired from the game earlier this year, Jones, 32, has dipped his toes into the world of football punditry and has made no secret of his plans to move into coaching in the future. The former England defender was plagued by injury problems…

Jorginho has been shocked by the ‘crazy’ criticism of ‘unbelievable’ Arsenal forward Kai Havertz. Eyebrows were raised when Arsenal spent £65m to sign Havertz from Chelsea in the summer of 2023 and the German endured a sluggish start to his Gunners career, scoring just once in his first 19 games for the club. He began to contribute more regularly towards the end of last season, however, and has nine goals in 19 appearances this term.…
