It took his tally for the season so far to six as he enjoys a particularly productive period in front of goal during which he has netted five times in his last nine outings. In between those last two goalscoring games, Havertz missed Die Mannschaft's big 9-0 victory over Liechtenstein after suffering the effects from a painful fall over the advertising hoardings at Stamford Bridge in the Burnley game, though Tuchel indicated prior to the trip to Leicester City that the German was fully fit and ready for action. 'He missed it [the Liechtenstein game] because of the injury he got against Burnley when he was pushed over and into the spectators,' said the boss. 'He suffered from that but he played the second match. He's in a good mindset and physically well so if nothing happens later in training, he's ready to go.' The Blues have one final session before heading to the East Midlands for Saturday's lunchtime kick-off, with Timo Werner expected to take part in that following his return to team training on Thursday. Yet our contest with the Foxes may come too soon for the striker to start, and with Romelu Lukaku also still sidelined, Havertz could well continue to spearhead the attack for the league leaders at the King Power Stadium. In assessing his overall development in the 14 months since he arrived from Bayer Leverkusen, Tuchel believes Havertz remains firmly on the right track and that affording him time will result in the 22-year-old continuing to flourish in south-west London. 'He will continue because he has a good character and attitude,' explained Tuchel. 'He took the right step to challenge himself in the Premier League and at a club like Chelsea. It's exactly the right choice to bring out the best in him. https://i.imgur.com/RmdPneY.jpg Havertz netted Germany's opener against Armenia last weekend 'It simply needs its time. Grass does not grow faster if you pull it; it takes its time and he is still young. He's very ambitious so of course we want the best of him tomorrow and the day after tomorrow but at the same time he's only 22 so maybe there are some years to come for him. 'If he stays and fights for it like he does now, to adapt to the Premier League and to adapt to his positions, then there will be goals and assists under his belt for sure.' Another young Chelsea midfielder among the Premier League goals in recent weeks has been Conor Gallagher, the on-loan graduate from our Cobham academy who made his senior England debut earlier this week. The 21-year-old worked closely with Tuchel during pre-season, impressing the German with his attitude and application, an impact that has continued since his loan move to Crystal Palace where he has four goals and two assists in 11 league games to date. Gallagher's emergence as an England international may have been unexpected but Tuchel always anticipated he could make a big difference this season. 'I'm not surprised that the national coach loves him because I loved him from day one,' he continued. 'There cannot be a coach who doesn't love guys like this - humble, nice, a smile on his face and all the time ready to give everything to learn and improve. https://i.imgur.com/XEyrQe8.jpg Gallagher has impressed at Selhurst Park in the opening three months of the season 'As a team-mate I would have loved to have played with him because he's a helper, he starts on minute one and he finishes maybe in the shower. That is the earliest moment when he stops running and stealing balls!' However, Tuchel insists that there is no desire for Chelsea to disrupt the momentum of their latest club-produced protege by bringing him back to Stamford Bridge in January. 'It's way too early to talk about it in public before we talk with Conor himself about what he wants and what his goals are,' added the boss. 'That will happen in the summer because we all agreed to the decision that he wanted to join Crystal Palace and Patrick Vieira's team. https://i.imgur.com/irwZRHE.jpg 'He saw this possibility for him and we had these talks before. I have not thought about bringing him back earlier because I think it's important for him to be happy where he is and for him now to stay in the moment. 'It's important to be calm in this stage of his career. I feel him happy there and it's good he had this impact at Crystal Palace but now it's about consistency. He had a game for the national team and you have to process all these things but right now I don't think it's necessary to change everything again for him in the winter.' -- 以伊露维塔的名为证发誓 — 若有谁敢夺取属於我们的蓝色之心，不论对方是天使 、恶魔、男人或女人，包括尚未出生者，若有任何的生灵，不论伟大或渺小，是善 还是恶，我们都将怀着复仇与憎恨之心直追到天涯海角，直追到世界结束之日。 --
