Champions League. Manchester City – Chelsea. Timo Werner is ineffective. Two chances missed – soccer

Chelsea paid Werner more than 50 million euros. He joined the club from Stamford Bridge in June 2020 as a highly successful striker and had great seasons behind.

Suffice it to say that the last time before leaving Germany he scored 34 goals for RB Leipzig, including 28 in the Bundesliga.

From the start, Werner was not doing well at the new club, to put it mildly. It has been criticized many times for its ineffectiveness.

Weaknesses in the English Premier League

As of Saturday’s match in Porto, the German scored just 12 goals in 51 games this season, including six in the English Premier League and four in the UEFA Champions League.

According to statisticians, in the Premier League he missed about 30 (!) Excellent chances to score.

In the final against Manchester City, he had an excellent chance in the fifth minute. On the left he got a great pass, but lost the ball from a distance of five meters.
