NICOLAS JACKSON has hit out at the critics of Chelsea he claims are ‘talking s**t.’

The outspoken striker notched his seventh and easiest Premier League goal so far in his debut season and toasted it with an industrial expletive-laden defence of his team.

Chelsea have struggled for consistency with new boss Mauricio Pochettino and £1billion worth of new players and have won just three home league games, leading to widespread debate about where the club is going.

But hothead Jackson said: “Results are not coming, every team goes through this because we are all new players, we have a new coach and we are trying to know ourselves and trying to improve every day.

“People who don't know football, talk s**t about the players on the pitch but people who know football they don't talk about this because they know.

“You never hear big players or big names or people who know football talking s**t about any player so we just walk on and forget about those people and try to work and focus on getting better.

“I should have scored more because I have missed some chances. The Premier League is different to LaLiga where I am trying to adapt.

"It is not an excuse. I am trying to work harder and listen to people.

"Not the people who do not know football, I listen to the coach and try to improve myself.

“He knows football, he has been with a lot of young players, so he motivates me every day.

"He has seen people worse than me and they are now big players. Kevin De Bruyne was here and Mo Salah was here and now they are big players.

“They struggled here but they didn't listen to people who don't know football and now they are big players, he keeps telling me that.

"He just tells me to not listen to people who do not know football. All the people that talk s**t, they don't know football so I don't listen to them.

“We don't come here for holidays. We try to win every game, we try to win for the coach and giving us motivation every day, every game because he has passed through this situation.

"We are very happy that he is doing that and helping the young players. We are all new and we are all going through it and we are going to win games.”

Feisty Jackson, 22, joined Chelsea in a £32million deal in the summer from Spanish side Villareal.

His strong character has already led to a ban for picking up five bookings. He readily admits adapting from Spanish to roughhouse English football is tough.

Bottom-club United join only Luton Town and Brighton as the three teams to lose a Premier League match at what was once fortress Stamford Bridge.

Jackson’s 61st minute tap in was enough to seal a vital three points for Chelsea against Sheffield United and stop the rot after two straight defeats.

It still wasn’t convincing until boss Pochettino shifted tactics at half time to unleash his wannabe winger Cole Palmer with Raheem Sterling charging through the middle.

Palmer set up Jackson to prod the ball into an empty net seven minutes after scoring himself.

With that in mind prickly Jackson reflected on the start to his career in English football, adding: “It is OK, it is not what I was going for, though it is my first season so I am happy, although everybody is talking s**t, I am very happy I don't care what people say.

“It is just people who don't know about football who talk s**t so I don't care what people say.

"I will just continue to play more games and score more goals for the team.”

Chelsea’s passionate forward resorted to four letter words five times to get his point across. If this is what he is like after a win, steer clear after a defeat.
