Image source
RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner looks to be on his way to Stamford bridge to Join Frank Lampard's side Chelsea and the question that's undoubtedly on everyone's lips is, will Werner become a hit or miss in Chelsea? The 24 year old striker is one of the hottest prospects in Europe currently and having scored more than 30 goals in the current campaign in the German league, will be take this form to the premier League or will he begin to adjust gradually to the unpredictability of the EPL?
Strength And Best Playing Position?
First Timo Werner is a play that's riding on confidence, his speed and agility and his quickness on the ball is what gets defenders utterly confused. He's the box to box kind of striker and one of his biggest strength is taking on players for speed and shooting comfortably with both of his feet. Although a huge number of his goals has come from penalty kicks, he's the kind of player that knows how to lurk in-between defenders and never misses opportunities.
Difference between Timo Werner And Tammy Abraham
Tammy Abraham is quite slower on the ball and he hardly takes on players, he relies on his ability to shoot or be one on one with the goalkeeper, and he's a natural striker who relies on the abilities of quality midfielders to score a lot of goals. Timo is different, although I won't say he's a spectacular striker Timo. But he's currently confident, he loves the quick kind of football, switching defence to attack and giving midfielders a hell of a time and that's what Chelsea currently needs; a strikers that's riding on confidence.
Will Timo Werner Succeed In The EPL?
This is left to be seen, the English league is a different kettle of fish, where defenders are more compact, more dogged and more disciplined, whereas the German league is a bit more friendlier and less competitive. The German born forward will need to count on his good finishing rate and confidence, he will need to imbibe or cultivate caution, he'll need to rely on the influx of quality on the Chelsea midfield to continue his blistering form. I think he'll face the biggest challenge of his career in Chelsea but be might just be a decent buy at the end of the day.
Final Thoughts....
Chelsea are bringing in player like Hakim Ziyech, and we still have the likes of Christian Pulisic in the mix, if players like Willian manages to stay, then Chelsea will be an incredibly pacy team, quick on the counter attack and converting their chances unlike before. Manchester City and Liverpool are the most precise team in the EPL, pacy, direct and very potent and Chelsea might just join the mix soon. I believe players like Reuben Loftus Cheek will contribute to making Chelsea a really formidable team, but at the end, it all boils down to Frank Lampard's ability to take Chelsea very far.
