Tuchel feels that nothing helps strikers more than scoring goals.
The new boss says Werner will be supported as long as he keeps working hard and trying everything.
Werner’s strength is with his speed on the counter-attacks, a situation Chelsea must improve in states Tuchel.
Tuchel feels the 24-year-old just needs that extra 1% to get going.
“He’s totally into it and he gives everything. Every striker in the world is sensitive and nothing helps more than goals,” Thomas Tuchel told reporters.
“As long as he has the impact and tries everything and works like he worked today we will support him. We missed some chances to use him in counter-attacks. This is his absolute strength with his pure speed.
“So we have to improve and bring him into situations where he can be decisive for us, and at the same time he was confident to play, but it’s not something you can demand.
“He has to work hard and maybe he will find an easy goal one metre in front of the line, or maybe somebody shoots at his knee and it’s deflected in, but he will find that extra one percent.”
Timo Werner had another afternoon to forget on Sunday despite Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Burnley.
The German missed a great opportunity to give the Blues the lead in an overall underwhelming performance.
Werner has now scored just once in all competitions since early November.
