Nicolas Jackson

Truth be told, Nicolas Jackson wasn’t the clear candidate for the third name on this list. However, he gets the nod for scoring his first Bundesliga goal and having his best game to date in a Bayern shirt.

Just before the hour mark, Jackson was replaced by Kane, but that move was more a case of Vincent Kompany allowing Kane to get some minutes on the pitch, ahead of the trip to Paris, as opposed to a disappointing outing from Jackson.

Jackson scored a goal from two attempts and was denied a second goal after being caught just marginally offside. Regardless of what the future may hold for Jackson in Germany or elsewhere, the Bavarian faithful could be pleased with Saturday’s effort from the 24-year-old striker, and hopefully, he would have turned the corner with that performance.
