Todd B selling well this window 😅 do not like that price tag at all
Arsenal just sign Julian draxler for 67 million 😂
Arsenal are Strengthening and no big clubs are buying their players. Man City are loosing their players and are getting older.
If they get Rice too, Arsenal should be the favorites next season, given how majority of the EPL teams had no clue on how to handle their fast possession football.
He is a player with much talent. But he needs a coach who is able to bring him to the next level.
Thinking Havertz can play wing in a 433 is just pure ignorance
Havertz was never a stiker and Chelsea was so silly to play him as a number 9 for most of the time there. Chelsea wasted his talent. Watch what Arsenal will do with him as a number 10.
Arteta will get the best out of him and this is coming form a Liverpool fan
Amazing bit of business. I thought we'd have to watch him get pushed off the ball or miss chance after chance for another couple of years!
Guys this is not Øzil
It’s not the greatest of business by Arsenal in terms of the price. It’s pretty much the same price Chelsea paid for him when he was considered a fantastic future prospect. He could still well be it but he has now some seasons that haven’t been great and yo would think that would hinder his price
The last time Arsenal signed a 24 year old left footed German playmaker it turned out well for us…
Good for Havertz….
Better for Chelsea!!
Needed a defender and a midfielder
BIGGEST MISTAKE! LEVEL ZERO. Arsenal fan here.
Chelsea’s recipe to success next season; bring in Caicedo, striker, keep Chilly and James fit. Sell Mount and have a blast. I appreciate both Kai and Mount for what they’ve done for us but once a player doesn’t want to stay, let them go!!! Good luck to both of them.
It’s one thing to be able to play different positions, it’s another to be able to play them well. Kai isn’t good enough for the premier league and certainly not worth that amount. Ps, I don’t see him benching anyone in the Arsenal team cause they’re all better players.
People don't understand that Arteta and Edu use AI for transfers. 😂😂 Kai will work for us🤞🏿
Same guys bashing the guy all the time , now going to Arsenal and they are praising him!! Nonsense!
Havertz will get a salary between £280k per week to £300k per week. Why wouldnt Havertz joins a club that pays stupid wages? Declan Rice's salary will definitely be more than £300k per week. Arsenal is now looking more like United. But at least arsenal signing better players than stupid United. Arteta should not sign jurrien timber as he is only 5' 10". For a centre back, no way. It will be exactly like stupid United signing martinez with the same height.
Overpriced
Chelsea need to buy Alvarez.
Great work by James at the end👏
We've seen Arteta as a tactician, let's see how he does in developing a player.
there are better players for that amount of money
I hope he doesn't turn out to be another KDB and Salah situation…he is so talented. I think he just wrong club!!!
I like Kai he is the man! He just needs stability!
I gotta admit I'm not convince with Havertz purchase. But i trust Arteta and the process.
The most meaningless claim by pundits is " he is an intelligent player."
great signing for Arsenal. Systems matter. That is the reason why players like trossard and havertz shine in the arsenal system. With odegaard jesus saka around him, he will be able to contribute a lot more. I see him starting every week in Xhaka's number 8 role. Him and Odegaard in one team behind the striker is an insane combination. Saka and martinelli on the wings. ufff. Jesus up front.
Well if it was barca signing havertz they would’ve made a mockery out of it. Since its arsenal they try so hard to make sense about it.They talk more about gundagon leaving city than joining barca. Imagine if it was frenkie or pedri joining city.
Tbh Kai isn't an out and out ST, he was a 10 at Leverkusen. Move him around the pitch and watch him produce, his versatility is underrated.
Great business. Only paid £72 for him and he clearly wanted to leave. Best thing for all parties.
😂😂😂 oh my goodness Arsenal are just ridiculous at this point, won't pop out 70m for Caicedo but it's not too much for Kai. Am I dreaming or something. Craig is insane if he thinks Tross is worried about behind Kai, even the guys infront of him arent in front of him
Kai is really a talented and skillful player, I think he is been largely mismanaged at Chelsea. Arteta can bring out the best from him
Arteta is not buying Havertz to be a striker he is not a striker that why he failed at chelsea
Jesus havertz and nketiah all massively underperform their xg lol
If you need a UCL final goal scorer buy havertz
Havertz for martineli 😮….you think havertz is better than trossard on the wings
Overrated player like De Gea 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bad move for Arsenal. Not only is his finishing and overall ability suspect, he's a dodgy character to have in the dressing room
