Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has admitted Timo Werner could have scored more goals despite scoring 2 goals.
The German international has been a pale shadow of himself ever since his big-money move to Chelsea. He showed why Chelsea paid such an amount for service during Chelsea’s win over Southampton by netting two goals.
Timo Werner hit the woodwork three times, as well as scoring twice. The German also registered eight shots – twice as many as Southampton’s players managed combined (four).

What did Tuchel say?
“He could have scored more. He had huge chances and a lot of chances. It was his favorite position against an opponent we knew we could find spaces in behind.
“It was for him to make a statement out of it which he did. He could have scored more but we are happy with his strong performance.”
