A huge blow to the race for the top five! The Telegraph: Jackson's reckless elbowing could cost Chelsea £100 million [xiaokui]


Live855.com, May 12th - Yesterday in the Premier League, Chelsea lost 0-2 to Newcastle. In the first half, Jackson elbowed Botman and was subsequently sent off by the referee. Chelsea lost this crucial battle for the top five and dropped to fifth place.

Jason Burt, a reporter from The British media The Daily Telegraph, wrote an article stating that Jackson's reckless foul could cost Chelsea £100 million.

The reporter said that Jackson will be suspended for three games, which forces Mareca to consider whether to use Jiou and Enkuku in the remaining two rounds, or to have players like Neto and Palmer play in this position. Anyway, Chelsea should sign a reliable center forward this summer. And this is equally astonishing. Chelsea has spent so much money and signed so many players, but up to now the team still doesn't have a reliable center forward.

If Chelsea fails to qualify for the Champions League in the end, it will make it even more difficult for the team to sign new players. Chelsea will also lose 100 million pounds in revenue. They might win the Europa Conference League, but for such an ambitious team, this is obviously not much consolation.
