🚫No reconciliation! Mikel: Jackson refused to chat with me privately, I just hope he shoots better

Chelsea star Mikel has criticized Jackson many times in interviews, and the latter has also directly responded through social media. In the latest interview program, Mikel said: He tried to communicate with Jackson privately, but was rejected.

Mikel:

"Have you had a private chat with him? No, no. That's right, I wanted to chat with him privately, but he refused. To put it bluntly, he didn't want to talk to me. There's no problem. I just want him to know that as a friend and someone who once played for the same team (Chelsea), I want to have a candid communication with him.

"We are very good now. Obviously he left Chelsea... Look, there's nothing between me and Jackson. I just said the obvious, I liked him as a player and people always talked about my criticisms of him but never said I praised him too.

"He's a great player, a talented player. The way he works with Palmer, the chemistry with the team, and the way he brings his teammates into the game is outstanding. His speed, pressing runs... people never say that.

"But he knows he needs to improve his finishing ability, improve his goal-scoring ability, and his ability to seize opportunities. There are so many opportunities, and he knows it.

"Sometimes the truth is obvious. I said it, it was there, but he clearly didn't like it...everybody knows that's the truth. It's about helping the team win. The culture of the team is to win trophies, win games. To win you have to score goals. When a striker doesn't do that, someone has to speak up. So I said it.

"I had no problem with Jackson and said a lot of good things about him. He's obviously a great player and I wish him all the best at Bayern. You can see Pedro's performance, Delap...unfortunately he's injured. But we are scoring goals and taking our chances. That's what a team needs. "
