Kai Havertz disasterclass – Still backing from the manager?!

Kai Havertz have been the most discussed point in the game against United. As after the clash against United and putting up an average performance. Mikel Arteta and co. are defending them. The German Midfielder who joined Arsenal in a high profile transfer. Had been average starting in this season. In the season same as some players, was pretty well. The manager’s faith in him means he was looking for a long term planning. But as the amidst criticism of the players had been declining since then.

Struggling phase of Kai Havertz


Havertz who had missed the penalty as well as managed to miss some big chances. Had been under level of scrutiny and are placed to the same table as Marcus Rashford, Raheem Sterling etc. After the first fresh season he was looking very sharp and threatening. Arsenal brought him as a value of $60 Million with add Ons. From the first minute of the next season he looked dull and optionless. Many analyst suggest it’s due to the position change of the player. He is more natural in the no.10 rather than going forward. Players like Jao Felix, Diego Jota also often feel this system default formats. But in a right system it would make things easy for them.

Arteta’s Defence for Kai Havertz


Despite the worst game for the German Striker got the backing from the manager. Mikel Arteta in his interview said that “There is a top player underneath him”. Although the fanbases are not really happy with this say. As one of the many supports said that “It’s a worse way to present himself on the pitch”.

The Mistake


In many analyst suggest that Kai Havertz is not playing in his normal positions. Making life difficult for the player as well as for the team. Arsenal as seen by the games thoroughly. Need to use him more of a advanced 10 but less of a finished striker role. As he could create a lots of chances from that position. Arsenal found themselves into a tough position to do so. As both of the game we have seen that he was in the right position. But put up a wrong foot and the goal and a golden chance was missed.

Solution


Arsenal could and should find a new no. 9 making it will ease the process. They are getting heavily linked with Osimhen and Gyokeres. Those are which are very good ball hitters and can fit the system. Arsenal also need to emphasize on Havertz. As he is more of a no. 10 rather than a striker. As he is always there for the chance creation department. There should be a forward who could finish those chances. Arsenal can be viewed as the perfect way to finish the line. Havertz missed chances can be resolved only by these and it could transfer the whole thing into a positive attitude.

Author’s take


In my own opinion Mount and Havertz has the same function. Both have the system to play and can deliver perfectly. While there are many analyst reports badly through the roof. And can be very obvious through the reason that it is a big money move. Arsenal just need to be more sensible on the transfer window. Arsenal needs to have an attacking movement continuing on the system. Transfer window would be more likely than making the change more prominent. Summer window can be tremulous decisions through the system. Making the player interchange the system could engage the player in the system.
