The last few weeks have been difficult at Chelsea. After many years, I was suddenly a little behind and had to fight my way again. A career always goes up and down, never steadily upwards. But you learn to deal with it.”

Despite Werner's lack of playing time, he stressed that leaving the Blues is not a simple decision to make. Although, the striker shares that seeing some action on the pitch is something that he desires.

‘I don’t know anything about the deadline. Of course, I can’t be satisfied if I don’t play. Of course, I want to be a regular in a big team.

“But I’m not saying that if I don’t start 10 or 15 games before Christmas, I really want to leave. Things happen relatively quickly in football. I have to look at the bigger picture to make my decision.”

Chelsea currently sits on top of the Barclays Premier League table, but fans have been riding on Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku's recent form.
