It was almost two years ago to the day when Chelsea officially announced the signing of Timo Werner from RB Leipzig.
At under £50m and triggering a release clause, Werner appeared to be a major statement of intent by the Blues, nabbing a long-held Liverpool target under the nose of Jurgen Klopp.
Werner had been one of Europe's breakout stars in the 2019/20 season, scoring 34 times in 45 games. His record rivalled some of the fiercest finishers in Europe, the deal appeared a no-brainer. Oh, how wrong we all were.
