Cobra Kai Havertz: No Mercy

[hydrofluoric acid]

It was awful when he received the ball with ocean of space around him and he somehow managed to start counter attack for Fulham.

He is lacking confidence.

 

[Fallout]

Probably a bit reactionary but Vieira receiving the ball, turning and immediately looking for a forward option is something I'm not sure Havertz has done once here, he always immediately looks to give it up to relieve any pressure put on him

Exactly, he is a total passenger in possession but he plays in midfield

Those two things will never equate

Confidence needs to be rebuilt before he sees the pitch again

 

[2Smokeyy]

It’s August and I’m already sick of this signing.

 

[Vibra]

He may come good but I think it's undeniable that we have better options right now

 

[RunTheTrap]

Not going to comment on him in this role until Arteta stops ****ing around with the LB.

This is eerily similar to the Pepe situation. “He needs an overlapping fullback”
Zinchenko isn't going to improve Kai's first touch or intensity. This is who he is.

@A_G how many games left?

 

[GDeep™]

People going out of their way to defend him, Havertz Defense League stuff.

Guy is crap.

 

[Thrice]

He always looks so lackadaisical. He's the polar opposite of Rice.

He obviously has a lot of talent, but he's the last player you expect to take over a game.

 

[Game Over]

£65m down the toilet.

Actually, worse than that, 65m to a hated rival to fund upgrading THEIR midfield.

 

[Rattata]

Awful performance from him today. Still I think it's stupid that people blame all the changes on him.
He's just playing the Xhaka role at the moment. Partey already played RB at the end of last season with Xhaka/Jorginho in midfield.

 

[RunTheTrap]

Serious question. Lokonga or Havertz as the left 8?

 

[juice man]

I don't really know what position he should be playing, but I know for certain its not CM.

 

[boonthegoon]

No defending that performance. Totally out of sync with the players around him (trossard, martinelli and Rice) while Rice has adapted seamlessly

Not sure how he can retain his place next game but knowing Arteta he'll probably start him still

 

[BenTal]

It's all about confidence and adapting to a new system. Give him a bit of time, and we will judge him. Just see what confidence brings to Viera

 

[Raicore]

Really awful today. Unbearable to watch

Look at what he’s doing to the fan base:

I’m not even buying the talent thing. He is mid level in terms of talent and just had great start in Germany with great pr. it has become such a normal thing to talk about how talented he is

If we never heard of him until he came to Chelsea and we seen what he showed on the pitch for them in 3 years and us now. Nobody would say that’s a talented footballer. His actual talent is so overrated

 

[Game Over]

I don't really know what position he should be playing, but I know for certain its not CM.

Imagine spending 65m on a player with no obvious position to play in the team.

Beyond moronic.

 

[Thrice]

I don't really know what position he should be playing, but I know for certain its not CM.

I think he can be CM for us, but not with Ødegaard also playing. Should be one or the other, not both.

Why is Lippy doing @Rex Bezos like that.
