The story in brief

31-second read

Matt McNulty/Getty Images Former Aston Villa midfielder Andy Townsend has praised Nicolas Jackson for his performance against Fenerbahce, describing the striker as the ‘pick of the bunch’ while admitting he had never seen him play like that in a Chelsea shirt.

Jackson joined the Villans during the summer transfer window from Chelsea as the direct replacement for Ollie Watkins. The move reunited the striker with manager Unai Emery, who previously gave him his breakthrough at Spanish side Villarreal. @media only screen and (max-width:42em){#videoAd{min-height:382px!important}#snack_dex7,#snack_mex7{max-height:50px!important;max-width:320px!important}}@media only screen and (min-width:42em){#videoAd{min-height:480px!important}#belowVideoAd{min-height:120px!important}}#videoAd{background:#f9f9f9}#belowVideoAd{background:#f9f9f9;width:100%} Enjoying this story?
