Max Eberl says Nicolas Jackson could play key role vs. Chelsea in Champions League
"Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl was a key driver in bringing Chelsea attacker Nicolas Jackson to Bavaria on a loan assignment for the season just before the summer transfer window ended. After one so-so appearance, though, Eberl thinks Jackson could play a key role as Bayern Munich prepares to face his old club in the Champions League. Jackson's inherent knowledge of Chelsea's team and tactics could come in handy."
""I'm sure Vinnie and the coaching staff will ask him. There are always certain processes that you might still see in the analysis. What signals do they have? What do these signals mean? I certainly believe the coaching staff will make use of this advantage," Eberl told Tz (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). Jackson's on-field role figures to be as a sub, but the Bavarians will seek to leverage any morsel of information that they can glean from the 24-year-old attacker."
Max Eberl orchestrated Nicolas Jackson's loan move from Chelsea to Bayern Munich just before the transfer window closed. Jackson has made one so-so appearance for Bayern so far. Eberl expects the coaching staff to question Jackson about Chelsea's processes, signals, and tactical cues to gain an informational edge. Jackson is likely to feature as a substitute, with Bayern aiming to extract any useful insights from the 24-year-old attacker. Bayern will host Chelsea at the Allianz Arena in the Champions League. Bayern's squad considerations include injury updates and Vincent Kompany settling into his preferred starting lineup for major matches.
