Jackson took to Instagram to express his admiration for the Argentine and seemed to call the Chelsea owners' decision into question.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Jackson posted an image that showed Pochettino reaching out to embrace the Senegal international, but he added two facepalm emojis to it. In another post, he wrote: "Love you, coach. Wish we could stay together more. But may God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for the advice and support, you're a true lion and fighter, wish you all the best."<picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt0de5b84ea01ba572/1.png?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt0de5b84ea01ba572/1.png?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt0de5b84ea01ba572/1.png?format=jpg" alt="Nicolas Jackson Mauricio Pochettino instagram" data-source="Instagram/jackson.nj11" data-copyright="Instagram/jackson.nj11" data-portal-copyright="Instagram/jackson.nj11" perform:prop="uuid:blt0de5b84ea01ba572;width:490;height:864"></picture>

WHAT JACKSON SAID

Jackson joined Chelsea from Villarreal last summer and enjoyed a good season in personal terms after adapting to his new surroundings. The forward netted 17 times in all competitions for Pochettino's team, helping them secure a sixth-place finish in the Premier League.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Jackson will soon be playing under a new manager at Stamford Bridge. There are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/next-chelsea-boss-thomas-tuchel-kieran-mckenna-sebastian-hoeness-10-candidates-replace-mauricio-pochettino/blt32d694b877c1ab00" target="_blank">several early candidates to replace Pochettino</a>, with Bayern boss Thomas Tuchel linked with a return to the club and Stuttgart manager Sebastian Hoeness also in the frame. Roberto De Zerbi is now a free agent after leaving Brighton and Ipswich's Kieran McKenna has also been highlighted.
