Timo Werner opens up and announces Chelsea can win Champions League, and here is why!

Timo Werner says Chelsea can win the Champions League this season because of Europe’s fixture pile-up.

Covid-19 is forcing the biggest teams to squeeze in matches — but we have a large squad thanks to a £220million spending spree that Frank Lampard was allowed to spend in the transfer window.

And as striker Werner prepared to face Rennes on Wednesday, he has opened up and suggested that we can win the Premier League title this season, he was quoted on the Chelsea website: “Every team playing in Europe plays every three days.

“It’s difficult. But we have a big squad of good players.

“I think with this, we have to have the goal to go very far in this competition.”

German Werner was one of six major new signings for Chelsea and has five goals already.

He added: “We’re not here to say, ‘We will get in the next round and we’ll see’ — we are here to win the Champions League in the next few years.

“And this year is a good chance because everybody in the competition has a lot of games.

“Every team has to think about how they can manage it, who they can play and how many games they can play consecutively.

“I came here to win titles. We are in a good way and we have a good chance to come very far in this competition.”

We do have the squad and the players to make a real impact on this years Champions League, if the players can put in the consistency that it would take to bring that Champions League back to London.
