Coleman: Chelsea striker Werner sure to dominate Prem next season

Former Fulham boss Chris Coleman expects Chelsea striker Timo Werner to dominate Premier League goalscorer next season.

Coleman believes that a return to form is just around the corner, insisting that the Chelsea forward has every chance of becoming a key player under Thomas Tuchel's guidance.

"I think he is going to score a hatful of goals next season, I really do," Coleman told Sky Sports before victory over Fulham on Saturday.

"He's a constant threat, he's always running in behind and getting into areas where he can get chances.

"He never shies away. It's been a tough year for him but he's shown glimpses of the quality which made Frank Lampard pay the money for him.

"I've got a feeling that this boy is going to score a hatful of goals next season. I think he will be a really, really good Chelsea player."
