Nicolas Jackson scored Bayern’s fourth goal in a 4-1 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach. The Senegalese striker has only scored once in his previous five Bundesliga starts.

“He (Jackson) played very well today,” Vincent Kompany briefly talked about the striker’s latest performance before addressing reports suggesting that he’s the only player dissatisfied inside Bayern’s dressing room.

“Since I’ve been here, I noticed that when everything is going well in the team, there are attempts to single out a player or two without any reason. The guy hasn’t done anything wrong. He trained extremely well, and he has won the AFCON. But, somehow, there are always stories about him.

“Last season, it was Serge Gnabry or Kingsley Coman. Now, it’s Nicolas Jackson. The reality of our dressing room is that it’s calm. Nicolas (Jackson) has performed very well in training and replicated it on the pitch tonight. It’s true that when Harry Kane plays in your position, it’s a bit difficult. There’s nothing more. Nico has done very well today and hopefully will do it again soon.”

It’s not yet clear if that next chance will be on Tuesday in Bayern’s Round of 16 Champions League first-leg tie against Atalanta. Kompany doesn’t make it clear whether Kane will return to the side by then.
