He wasn’t only used at false 9 at Chelsea though, something some Arsenal fans seem to constantly ignore. He was given plenty of time in a range of positions. Like you surely can’t think he was only seeing game time as false 9 when Lukaku was there or Werner was playing at striker? He was used in a 3 man midfield a number of times by both Lampard and Tuchel.
We saw plenty of Kai Havertz across the pitch. False 9 is the role where he got vaguely close to being useful at combined with the circumstances around the role with Lukaku leaving etc.
Palmer and Havertz are different players but the idea there aren’t overlaps in their roles for Chelsea is just wildly naive.
