Chelsea striker Timo Werner: I know Premier League about power and strength

Chelsea striker Timo Werner says the Premier League is about "power".

Werner is upbeat after a winning Premier League debut against Brighton.

He said, "The football in the Premier League fits me very well. In the two games against Brighton, sometimes they stand very deep and they give so much space, but other times you have a lot of space where you can make runs and movements which are good for me.

"Sometimes it depends on the game. Football here is more power and more strength from the defenders. It could be I have to adapt a little bit, and play a few games to learn, but in the end I want to play, I want to play good, I want to score and I want to win.

"Maybe I need two or three games, but in the end I want to play as good as possible and have no excuses to say 'I have to adapt after 10 or 15 games'. I want to come in the league and be the best Timo I can be as soon as possible."
