Chats, how was Arsenal’s buildup today without Gyokeres?? was Zubimendi able to play out from the back, beat presses and progress the ball comfortably when Gyokeres wasn’t on the pitch??

What Havertz does well here: ✅ Great in the duels ✅ Incredible shielding of the ball ✅ Off the ball movement ✅ OOP workrate ✅ Helped us retain possession ✅ Was our most dangerous attacker What Havertz Doesn’t do well here: ❌ His passing is too negative, always looking for the safe option. This killed counterattacks and invited pressure which led to an opportunity for Doku. ❌ Takes too many touches at times ❌ Missed 4 big chances (1 got called for offside) which cost Arsenal the game





Kai Havertz will miss 99 chances, scores one and Arsenal fans act likes he’s some prime Lewandowski. How many duels did Haaland win against Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães today? I could barely count 3 duels he won yet it took only one moment in box and he delivered the telling moment of the game. Mikel Arteta on the other hand benched his top scorer for Kai Havertz who has always cost us games in the past and he did just that today again.


Viktor Gyökeres would’ve scored that Kai Havertz chance btw


Kai Havertz vs Manchester City (A)



Ultimately the highlight reels will define Kai Havertz’ game today. And even though I disagree with it, that’s sadly how it is, since he should have scored at least one of them. But what I saw was a player who has clearly been trying to get back up to speed following an injury ridden year, since today was his first 90 of the season. And I saw a player who gave us a fighting chance by being a consistent out ball. Without him, we wouldn’t have even competed today.
