The Blues boss is confident that the Germany international will deliver on his potential in the long-term at Stamford Bridge
Timo Werner is capable of playing on the left for Chelsea, according to Frank Lampard, who has called for patience amid the striker's struggles for form at the start of his career in England.
Werner has largely failed to live up to his £47.5 million ($65m) price tag since joining Chelsea from RB Leipzig back in June.
The 24-year-old has only scored nine goals in his first 25 outings for the Blues in all competitions, having seemingly lost the killer touch in the final third that saw him emerge as one of the most deadly strikers in Europe at Red Bull Arena.
