It was only two months ago that Timo Werner felt the overwhelming love from Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge. He adored the fans' passion when chanting his name, despite the lack of goalscoring consistency. Supporters always gave him the benefit of the doubt and admired his willingness to persevere, no matter the circumstances.
A couple of months later and fans are going wild on social media and this time without the usual optimism towards the striker. It seems like Werner is on his way to receiving the Romelu Lukaku treatment and like the Belgian, it started off with an interview.
My oh my. Sometimes I wonder if Chelsea players should even speak to the press at this point. Everything they say will receive some sort of scrutiny. I may not agree with Timo Werner's statement, however, I don't think fans should turn on him just yet. But even if they do, he has the perfect escape plan.
