Chelsea beat Burnley 4-0 with a goal and assist from Pulisic

Chelsea put four goals past Burnley away from home to end their 28th Premier League matchday with a reliable win that helps keep the noise about the impending sale of the club, already confirmed by Roman Abramovich, from growing.

Thomas Tuchel's side dominated from start to finish, although it was not until the start of the second half that they began to add to the scoreline. Reece James opened the scoring in the 48th minute, just five minutes before Havertz joined in and, in the 55th minute, set up his brace. Two goals in two minutes. And to complete the rout, Pulisic made it 4-0 in the 78th minute.

This result is the third straight domestic victory for the Blues. Consistency in success is very important to be able to compete for the League title with Manchester City, who are 13 points ahead of the Londoners, and Liverpool, who are second with 60 points.

To study it also from a not-so-positive point of view, the scoreline shows that this Chelsea is not needing Werner with assiduity, a situation that, as already leaked in the English press, does not make the German at all happy. He has even asked his coach for more minutes and, if he does not get them, he is seriously considering leaving the team.

Timo Werner threatens to leave Chelsea

Timo Werner has moved into a lesser role at Chelsea this season. Gone is his first year after joining from RB Leipzig when he came on more than 50 times. Now, with 24 under his belt and 13 starts, he does not look likely to go beyond that.

According to 'Daily Express', the striker is trying to put a solution to this scenario and has already taken an important step. He has met with his coach, Thomas Tuchel, to ask for more minutes both for the remainder of the campaign and the next one. If he is not satisfied, he is likely to look for another team.

In fact, another piece of news had already been leaked in line with this one, and that is that the German's weariness is increasing as the weeks go by. Lukaku, Mason Mount, Havertz, Pulisic... he is running out of room to shine and, at 25, he wants to squeeze out what may be the best stage of his career.

The source mentioned in the first paragraph warns that Werner's desire is to succeed at Chelsea. In other words, it is not that he has any animosity towards the club, but that he does not consider staying at the club if it jeopardizes his own success. The ideal for him would be to sweep the club by the scruff of the neck.
