Kai Havertz lauded after his best Chelsea display to date against Everton, with Eni Aluko insisting £89m star has 'given Thomas Tuchel a lot to think about' while Gary Lineker hails German's 'obvious abundance of talent'

Kai Havertz took home the plaudits following his best performance in a Chelsea shirt against Everton on Monday night, with Eni Aluko, Faye White and Gary Lineker all singing his praises.

Havertz has struggled to live up to expectations since his £89million summer move from Bayer Leverkusen, failing to make any real impact going forward for the club.

But on Monday, Havertz was the star of the show as he played an instrumental role in both Chelsea's goals of their 2-0 win, with his strike deflecting off Ben Godfrey for his side's first before winning a penalty which Jorginho duly converted.
