Timo Werner is a step away from scoring in his new role under Thomas Tuchel

While the goals have not been coming in for Timo Werner yet, he looks like a man reborn under new Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel. The Germany international has undergone a change in role to be included in Tuchel’s system, which seems to be suiting him quite well. 

Werner now plays as a left number 10 behind either one of Tammy Abraham or Olivier Giroud, who take up the role of the classic number 9. The new player now has more freedom in the centre to operate not only behind the lone striker but also has another player behind him to cover up.  

Y’We are proud of this win to continue our last wins and, for myself, no goal, but it’s good to see I can help the team with other moments,’ Werner said at Bramall Lane.

‘I’m happy when we win, when I can make two assists, it’s good. When I don’t score, it’s a long period for me, you can’t do anything, you have to keep going and the goals will come.

‘Every manager is different, he gives us a lot of ideas. I play as a left 10, not a winger, so I have more space in the middle. I play behind a striker or with a 10 behind me, it’s very good for me.’

The German has not found the back of the net in 14 games, but has been looking evee so threatening under his compatriot. Werner is usually the main fouled in the box, winning penalties for the team thanks to his blistering pace, and he can have the chance to back up in the games to come.
