Fans criticize Kai Havertz for Arsenal gem’s performance – Ethan Nwaneri

SOME impatient Arsenal supporters are already turning on Kai Havertz and believe that academy product Ethan Nwaneri is better.

The German international forward, 24, sealed a £65million move from Chelsea to Arsenal earlier this month.

Arsenal supporters got their first look at Kai Havertz last night

Not many were convinced by his display in midfield

It has since been revealed that he is now the highest-paid player at the Emirates.

When the Premier League runners-up drew 1-1 with Nurnberg yesterday night to get back into the swing of things before the big kickoff next month, Arsenal fans got their first glimpse of Havertz.

As soon as he entered the game as a substitute in the second half, it became clear that the rumors that he had been acquired as Granit Xhaka’s immediate midfield replacement were accurate.

Havertz was positioned on the left side of the midfield, but several Arsenal supporters in the crowd were not persuaded.

And some even believe that 16-year-old Nwaneri, who became the youngest player in Premier League history when he was brought on against Brentford aged just 15 years and 181 days last season, is a better alternative.

Nwaneri has a great performance

“Havertz looks absolutely lost,” declared one while another said that: “Havertz in midfield, early signs aren’t promising.”

“What is Havertz’s role,” asked another Gooner watching on.

While another tweeted: “Nwaneri is better than Havertz.”

After a screenshot of some of the concerned tweets from Gooners went viral, chewy Chelsea fans could not wait to stick the boot on.

“Nah man this is too funny,” said one.

Another Arsenal supporter had wrote: “Havertz is ineffective on the left midfield. That’s not his position.”

And that led to a response from a Blue that read: “Stage one of the Havertz cycle and its only pre-season.”

The Gunners now fly to Washington on Sunday for a three-match tour of the USA.
