£70m question. I think it's there, but he doesn't seem like the player that will push him to excel. I personally see him as more or an AM/SS rather than a CF, which he has played quite often whilst here. Saying that, I don't believe we'll get the best out of him should Tuchel stick to the current formation. How did that go? I believe we weren't doing too bad as a team when he was leading the line. Individual stats are secondary if the team are delivering. We were at least a unit. If you took Werner out for someone like Kane last season, we'd have been a completely different proposition. Creating chances are even hard to come by now.

I'm really surprised there isn't more noise being made about him. People forgetting he was demanding this & that to remain at the club. Trying to figure out what he actually offers aside from pace to run down the line and then spot and pass back.

As I alluded to with "hit the heights". The potential to hit the level Hazard did whilst he was here. A number of things have hampered Havertz's time thus far at the club, from being played in multiple positions, not getting a run of games & needless to say, long term COVID effects.

You can't honestly think Lukaku was a signing Tuchel pushed for?

Feels like we can't compete for the top talents anymore or are reluctant to go for them. Providing Havertz hits the heights most expected prior to the move, he's the only top talent we've signed in years & COVID was probably the main reason we got it over the line to begin with.

One win in our last seven league games. If we lose to Tottenham, we could possibly be outsiders for a top 4. From 6 points clear to this. Some collapse.

Lukaku & Ziyech retain their places & CHO at RWB? Tuchel keeps making these questionable decisions. We can't afford anything but a win tonight

That opinion must be solely based on his price tag, as he's been nowhere near some mentioned where it matters.

Tuchel connection. If he didn't have a boatload of baggage, he would be a smart signing.

I was going to mention that almost every player has their price, but we aren't in dire need or are after starters.

Maehle or Gosens (presume the former)? I think either of them would be good additions to our squad, but I doubt Atalanta would consider selling.

My response to the other poster was about us being in a better position had we not slipped up multiple times & gone from 6 points clear to this. Our current situation in terms of league play isn't far off last season right now.

It's something when you pay a club record fee & look worse for it.

Teams just taking advantage at this point.

Finishing second (at worst) and closing the considerable cap of 19 points to City would be seen as an improvement by anyone. Not sure how this is even being questioned. Should have done the double against Liverpool tbh.

Maybe so, but it would have at least been much closer & would have shown we've improved on last season. We're 13 points behind now.

Not sure if you're talking about our collapse of sorts or what I wrote. If the latter, there's no way anyone was pleased with that XI.

To think we were 6 points clear at one point. Tuchel has to take part of the blame with the XI he chose, but City were the better side.

I'll pass. Try not resulting to insults or take your own advice.

What's nationality got to do with it? Roman has been doing it for ages (Shev, Torres, etc). Do you think YOU or anyone for that matter is going to change that? (rhetorical question fyi)

I didn't want him to start either, but Tuchel selected him, so get on with things. This mess is solely thanks to the board yet again.

You support the team or you don't. Comments like this are 🙄

Fifth time he's scored now

He does it again. Former players always on the scoresheet.

Lukaku has to finish if he isn't going to offer anything else.
