Timo Werner slated for going wide with chance two yards out 'that was literally harder to miss than it was to score' during Spurs' defeat at Fulham, with one claiming the German 'hasn't changed one bit since leaving Chelsea'

Timo Werner's miss from two yards out during Tottenham's away defeat to Fulham on Saturday evening came under fire from online pundits.

Two goals from Rodrigo Muniz and one from Sasa Lukic had given the Cottagers a 3-0 lead when Werner came off the bench in the 66th minute.

Three minutes later, fans were questioning how the German forward - on loan from RB Leipzig - had managed to miss such a good opportunity right in front of the goal net.

Brennan Johnson had fizzed a ball across the box, which looked like the perfect chance for Spurs to get back into proceedings at Craven Cottage, but Werner was only able to direct the ball wide of the far post with the goal gaping in front of him.
