‘It looks so ridiculous’: Micah Richards makes claims about Timo Werner after watching performance
Timo Werner has made a positive impact since joining Tottenham, showcasing his pace and contributing to the team’s attacking dynamics.
Despite not yet finding the back of the net, Werner’s role has been a topic of discussion among football pundits. In a debate on The Rest is Football, Gary Lineker, Micah Richards, and Alan Shearer shared their perspectives on Werner’s contributions.
Richards expressed the view that Werner doesn’t necessarily need to bear the sole responsibility of scoring goals for the team.
During the discussion, Lineker acknowledged Werner’s influence on the left-hand side, providing width that was lacking in the first half.
Shearer highlighted Werner’s effectiveness in combining with fellow player Johnson for a goal in the second half. While acknowledging Werner’s unchanged pace, Shearer emphasized the need to assess if he has learned the offside rule.
In response, Richards put forward the notion that Werner doesn’t require the sole responsibility of scoring all the goals, emphasizing the utility of his pace in breaking defensive lines and creating opportunities.
Richards’ perspective underscores the idea that Werner can be a valuable asset to the team without being the primary goal-scorer. While his creativity, pace, and ability to disrupt defenses are crucial, Richards suggests that Werner’s role may not require the same goal-scoring burden he faced at Chelsea.
However, the importance of Werner contributing goals to complement his other qualities is acknowledged, as attackers ultimately face scrutiny if they don’t find the net consistently.
The discussion reflects the nuanced assessment of Werner’s role and the various dimensions he brings to Tottenham’s attacking strategy.
