REVEALED: Why Chelsea striker Jackson made penalty demand

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson was involved in an on-field bust-up on Monday night.

The forward was furious at not being able to take a late penalty in a 6-0 thumping of Everton.

Jackson had already scored in the game, but felt that he could get another to his name.

Instead, Cole Palmer went to take the spot kick and buried it to get his fourth of the game.

The Telegraph states that Jackson was angry because he wants to achieve 15 Premier League goals this term.

He has only scored ten and believes that he can get there, but only has five games remaining.
