Alan Shearer has revealed that Chelsea messaged him in response to his criticism over Nicolas Jackson's performances in a Blues shirt.

After Chelsea's disappointing 2-0 defeat to Brentford at the end of October, Shearer was quick to comment on the forward's underwhelming performance.

During a Match of the Day broadcast, Shearer claimed that there was a 'complete lack of movement' from the former Villarreal forward.

However, in the weeks have that have followed, Jackson has managed to score four goals in three matches - making Shearer's comments seem somewhat unfair.
