Chelsea have just won against Newcastle at home, and it was Kai Havertz who scored the exquisite late goal to grab them three points they didn’t fully deserve.
That’s Chelsea’s 5th win in a row in the Premier League, and Kai Havertz has been instrumental in a few of them. His recent run in the team has seen him cement himself as the team’s main attacking outlet, and the stats back that idea up.
Kai Havertz has six goals in his last seven Chelsea appearances. He's also Chelsea's top scorer in all competitions since Tuchel took charge with 15 goals. He is becoming the main man. #CFC #CHENEW

As Nizaar Kinsella of Goal.com pointed out, Havertz has now scored 6 in his last 7 games, carrying Chelsea to some important results after being brought into for the struggling Romelu Lukaku.
He’s also now the top scorer across all competitions since Thomas Tuchel arrived. The goals have really been spread around to a phenomenal degree – even Havertz only has 15 in 14 months – but it seems like he’s set to stretch that lead further in the weeks to come.
