Frank Lampard says Werner will get better in front of goal.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says former Leipzig player will get better in goal as he can see his work and dedication on the training ground, Timo Werner have been frustrated in front of goal after just scoring four goals in the Premier league.
Despite the goal drought in the team Timo Werner have come into the spotlight for not scoring enough goals, However, the Blues boss has reiterated he is not concerned for the German forward and claims the only way to get through a tough period is to practice, perspire and perfect your technique.
“Every player goes through tough times in front of goal and I always found that work at the training ground was the only way to turn that,’ explained the boss. ‘It’s about simple work, repetition of finishing, which Timo is doing now, and when you work like that then it’s a matter of time.”
“His natural attributes will get him in front of goal, get him away from defenders and get him those chances again. The beauty is that he’s been getting chances because that’s definitely a positive.”
“If his confidence is low from missing a couple, that’s only natural and it’s my job to help push him in a positive direction. I feel the goals will come.”
Lampard insists that his summer signings should be given more time to adjust to new surroundings, and believes Werner will prove to be an attacking threat against any defence he comes up against.
