Chelsea after beating Tottenham in the League Cup final”>Timo Werner arrived at Chelsea in the summer of 2020 against 53 million euros, from RB Leipzig, with whom he had just played the season of his life (34 goals and 13 assists in 45 games). He was therefore expected at Chelsea as the club’s new serial scorer. However, he did not really live up to expectations, scoring only 18 goals in 71 games (and 17 assists in Dec.) but standing out above all for his countless misses, each more mind-blowing than the next.
In an interview given to Skysports, the one who missed 18 clear chances last season in the league, returned to the support he receives from supporters: “sometimes I don’t understand why they support me so much, when I’m a striker who wants to score but who misses chances.“. The German is well aware of how lucky he is not to be booed after so many mistakes and that gives him the motivation to always give his all in the Blues jersey:it’s so much fun to play in front of the Chelsea fans when they support me the way they do, it makes me stronger when I miss chances or go through tough times. I try to give my best in every game, 100%, so that the team is happy.»
