Coming to the fore.
Doesn't possess the creative instincts, spark, decision-making and ball retention capacity to dictate / influence matches (like Cal can -https://youtu.be/XPRHLooNL64 ) to a high degree.
Never on that top echelon playmaking level.
That and his pressing inability is part of the reason why team is unable to sustain pressure for prolonged period in the opposition half.
Potter most definitely changed his style to adapt to Felix, but Felix is not on the standard where play should be tailored around him yet. (Even if you want to argue that Felix is more of a goalscorer, his goalscoring output doesn't warrant that label).
My reservations about Felix...

To be fair I don't get Havertz? whenever I've watched him to doesn't seem to be anything special.
That said you guys watch him far more than I and I might be missing something about his game? Felix clearly has skills but as mentioned for what position specifically and where does he fit in for Chelsea, not worth the 100m if that would be the price imo anyway

No, not missing anything. I think he would be sold by now if not for the cl final goal.

Sterling's just meh. Everything about him is meh. Not a great player, not a bad player, not the worst to watch, not the best. Just thinking about him makes me bored

I think he looked quite bright first half at the weekend but ye I think he’s stolen a career at the level he’s been at

He's done better than I thought he would. When he was at Liverpool I saw the next Wright-Phillips, classic flash in the pan who had nothing but pace. Guardiola crafted him into a decent all round attacker.
I wouldn't even call him overrated as most people seem to be split on him, possibly underrated actually, but he's just not interesting to me. A proper opta stats generation player, functional but not exciting.

Thankfully Todd & co. appear to have a good head on their shoulders and I'm sure they wouldn't agree to Atletico' demands or splurge such an astronomical amount on Felix...particularly as Felix couldn't be tied down to a 7 year+ contract.
Tammy + midfielder or goalkeeper for the same amount = wise

Well considering CHO is worth at least £150m we should be able to do a straight swap CHO for Felix.

If Cmf doesn't rate Felix that means he's brilliant
