Mikel Arteta sent major Kai Havertz Arsenal warning with worrying Mesut Ozil claim
Arsenal news: Mikel Arteta has seen one of his new signings Kai Havertz compared to former Gunner Mesut Ozil in a worrying message
Kai Havertz has endured a difficult start to his Arsenal career with the latest update seeing Mikel Arteta's £65million transfer decision hit with a Mesut Ozil comparison. The Germany international has started every competitive game for the Gunners so far this season but has come under significant fire for his midfield displays.
"That's more I think the demands of everybody to play forward and to impact the game in the final third because we had the urgency to win." When asked if Havertz would gain the support of the Arsenal fans, Arteta replied: "Yes I think so. I think he's done already really good things.
"Today it was tough in certain moments. He got in great areas and the ball didn't arrive. In a lot of situations he should have scored a lot of goals already this season. That's the thing that is missing there." Havertz very nearly responded to Arteta's "missing" claim in the Premier League clash against Manchester United as he was involved in two important moments.
Firstly, he had the best chance of the game in the early stages but hit an air shot when presented with the loose ball from close-range. In the second half, Havertz won a penalty after being brought to the floor by Aaron Wan-Bissaka, however VAR recommended Anthony Taylor over to review the decision before it was ultimately overturned.
Despite those two crucial moments not going Havertz's way, Arsenal still won the game 3-1 thanks to two late goals from Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus. With the international break now in play, Havertz will likely be deployed back in attack given that is usually where he is deployed for Germany.
