Thomas Tuchel, the manager of Chelsea, has identified two areas in which his player, Kai Havertz, must develop.
Tuchel wants Havertz, who scored the game-winning goal in Chelsea’s 2-1 FIFA Club World Cup victory over Palmeiras last weekend, to enhance his ‘clinical and precise’ goal-scoring ability.
Tuchel said, “If we isolate the goalscoring, then yeah, we expect more and he [Kai Havertz] expects more, but the consistency in what he is given to the team, he has stepped up and pretty consistent,” during his pre-match press conference on Friday ahead of Chelsea’s away Premier League tie with Crystal Palace on Saturday evening.
“We can see a lot of intensity and physicality in his playing.” We’ve seen him improve on it this season in training.
“I believe he is working on becoming more dependable and consistent. He is, after all, an offensive player with the capacity to score. We’d want to see more goals, and he’d like to see more goals as well. He can improve in this area of the game by being more clinical and precise. Make better use of his shooting skill. As a result, there is room for growth,” he explained.
“He’s stood up twice in huge games, in critical moments, and that can only help his growth,” Tuchel said.
