Ralph Hasenhuttl insists Timo Werner can be one of Europe's best strikers and says tailoring his tactics was key to getting the best out of him when they worked together at RB Leipzig.
Chelsea striker Werner has scored just once in 15 games for club and country – against Morecambe in the FA Cup - and none in his last 10 league appearances, with his lack of confidence underlined by a terrible late miss at Fulham on Saturday as Frank Lampard consoled him on the pitch after the game.
But current Southampton boss Hasenhuttl has seen Werner at his best and his belief in him is unwavering.
