Arsenal legend urges Chelsea boss to let go of misfiring young forward

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has shared his opinion on the future of Chelsea forward Timo Werner as he noted that club boss Thomas Tuchel must be thinking about replacing the striker.

Timo Werner has struggled to find his feet at Stamford Bridge following his £47.5m move from RB Leipzig last summer as he been on the score sheet just twice since November 14.

The Germany forward who was brought in to sort out Chelsea’s goalscoring problems has also admitted that he has found it difficult to adapt to the demands of English football.

With Werner being linked with a move back to the Bundesliga, Wright didn’t leave any stone unturned when speaking on The Kelly and Wrighty Show.

Wright stated that when you look at Werner and the chances he misses, no matter how low your confidence is, he shouldn’t be missing those for the calibre of striker he’s supposed to be.

According to Wright, everyone knows Werner scored a lot of goals for RB Leipzig, but even when you’re not playing well and your confidence is low, he shouldn’t be missing them and then you start overdoing it.

The former Arsenal player noted that the natural goalscorers get into that position and thinks, “thank god, this is the chance I wanted.

However, Werner misses too many of those changes that should be converted.

Wright added that if Werner carries on as it is, if you can get a swap deal and get someone else in, there’s no way they’re not thinking about that.
