Thomas Tuchel says Kai Havertz has room for improvement after Crystal Palace display

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was pleased with the performance of Kai Havertz against Crystal Palace, but believes that the German needs to be more ruthless in front of goal.

The 21-year-old produced an impressive performance with a goal and an assist as the Blues went on to register a comfortable 4-1 league win at Selhurst Park.

However, Havertz could have quite easily got a hat-trick in the derby, and the Blues boss emphasised the same in the post-match press conference.

While he was pleased with Havertz’s showing, Tuchel said that there is room for improvement with his finishing, and he needs to be more ruthless with his chances.
