Nicolas Jackson, who joined Chelsea from Villarreal over the summer, has already received four yellow cards in his first five Premier League games. This puts him at risk of receiving an early suspension because he will miss one match if he receives one more before the 19th round of games on Boxing Day.

As a result of this season's adoption of harsher rules intended to crack down on dissent, the striker has received four yellow cards thus far, the majority of which have been given out for complaining to the officials. In light of this, Mauricio Pochettino acknowledged that he had spoken to Jackson about the matter and advised him to use more judgement when it comes to maintaining order on the pitch.
We were in a meeting with him and Enzo today, so that's why we were talking about it,' Pochettino added. I told him it was so simple and inexpensive for a striker to receive four yellow cards just for speaking to the referee or protesting. Sometimes, but not always, you must receive a yellow card for a variety of reasons. He will put the squad in a very challenging position if it continues and he receives a suspension. He should be shrewd and refrain from making such a loud protest to the officials, but he got the point.
Jackson is youthful and also 21. He needs to educate himself, get better, and calm down. He needs time, but I think he's going to be a great player. We frequently overlook the fact that we are discussing young guys. You may certainly point the finger at me and discuss strategy, but those things take time to work. Without a doubt, our team is filled with incredible talent, but they still need some time to adjust before they can begin to play as we would like.
Pochettino agreed with that judgement, but he added additional justifications, including the rule change for this season and the distinction between how players are permitted to communicate with referees in the Premier League and La Liga. Perhaps he needs to work on it because it's his typical behaviour on the pitch. He may have come from Spain where the rules are different or they changed this season. In England, the public's attitude towards referees has changed, and today they are more sensitive to it. It all comes down to his changing himself, and since he is smart, he will undoubtedly change.
Speaking more generally about the group, Pochettino said he is not becoming irritated with our inability to convert Premier League efforts into points in the early going. Instead, he opted to emphasise one of the reasons he is positive moving forward as the response he has witnessed from his players at Cobham this week following last Sunday's dismal stalemate at Bournemouth. If we talk about performances, I believe the squad is performing well, therefore I'm not frustrated. Since the team is made up of a variety of players and is also missing many crucial players, we cannot criticise its performance.
Concerning the team performance and lack of reliability of some players I'm not angry,". I think many teams with fewer opportunities could have scored more, which makes me angry. That is how we feel, and that is the reason we feel horrible. The team deserved more, and the players deserved more. However, the only way to get what we want is to keep playing, pushing ourselves, and doing the good things we are doing, replicating them repeatedly in every game. The way they felt after Bournemouth and after Nottingham Forest makes me so delighted. The club means a lot to them. They take winning games very seriously. They sincerely care that they do better.
This week was beneficial for putting in a lot of effort and setting a positive tone each and every day in an effort to carry that over to the competition. That mentality will undoubtedly be visible on the field when the Blues take the field at the Bridge on Sunday for our upcoming Premier League game against Aston Villa.
