✍️ OFFICIAL Kai Havertz

[The_Playmaker]

Havertz would be worthy of whatever price tag he fetches, very special talent. Has the composure of someone that has been playing at the highest level for 10 years, probably has the ability to play in a wider role as well.

I really like Neres, was linked with a move to China in January though, would certainly take him if we can’t get someone like Pepe. Not seen enough of Nkunku to judge him but I think he is a completely different player to Havertz?

Havertz is the exact player we should stay away from. Too slow, doesn't defend. Aouar is roughly the same age, has the same attributes and talent offensively but puts in a shift defensively.

So we'd be replacing Özil with a young Özil?

No with Kai Havertz. Guy is two footed and can do everyting. He is not just a assist machine like özil.

Would swap özil for him instantly

I'm sorry but that post is just incorrect and anyone that watches the Bundesliga regularly will be able to tell you that.

Then again you've gone from saying Pepe wasn't good enough earlier in the season to wish listing him now...

I can go into detail if you want but Havertz and Aouar are completely different players, I have no idea why you're comparing them.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

This guy look German ramsey a midfielder who run from deep to score goals and assists would definitely get him the problem he'll cost us too much money

 

[Malky]

With the amount of positions needing addressed this summer, isn't a guy like Havertz already out our price range?

 

[SA Gunner]

Havent heard of this lad before, but this is what I see him described as.

 

[Fewtch]

So we'd be replacing Özil with a young Özil?

He’s much more similar to Dele alli than Mesut like @dashsnow17 said earlier in the thread. He’s also playing as an interior in a 433 next to Julian Brandt at the moment so he’d be able to play there as well if we move away from 4231.

He was just listed as fastest or second fastest player in the league

If anything, you can make a case for his acceleration

 

[Goonerozil33]

Excellent player technically, fast and growing strong. The only problem is how similar he looks like mesut Özil. He looks very much a final third player but with goal scoring ability and maybe the physicality. Not sure if he is good in deeper positions against superior opposition. He is definitely better that Özil when played deeper.

 

[dashsnow17]

Yh I don’t really get the Özil comparisons. Just cos he idolises him doesn’t mean he plays like him. Seems to me like a midfielder who gets on the end of moves with end product. If we’re losing two big guns at the heart of the team in Özil and Ramsey then Havertz is a superb replacement, if you can get him. Undoubtedly one of the best young players in Europe.

 

[Beksl]

Pipe dream.

 

[truth_hurts]

Kills Smith-Rowe. Would show that we don't see him as having a huge future. I'd rather our big summer signing is somebody ready to take the league by storm instantly ala Van Dijk, Aubameyang or Bernado Silva, but at the same time we need to be investing in the best young talents as well.

 

[truth_hurts]

Ghendouzi, Smith-Rowe, Nelson, Saka, Havertz? and Nketiah would be an exciting group of young players.

To be honest I watched about 30 seconds of a YouTube video and saw he was left footed and technically good so jumped all they way to conclusion land

His stats are quite clear, he scores more than he assists. So seems more of a Deli Alli/Ramsey than an Özil. Although he can also make key passes.

We only have two goal scorers and they play in the same position. Adding Havertz and a goal scoring winger would really enrich the attack.

 

[ArsenalFever]

RVP of midfield.

Don’t agree that it kills ESR. We had Özil and Ramsey in the same squad for years, plus people like Cazorla, Rosicky, Wilshere and Mkhi. Replace Özil, Ramsey and Mkhi with Havertz, ESR and Iwobi. Seems fine to me.

 

[DanDare]

If someone's good enough they don't get killed.

If they do then good because we've signed someone better.

 

[truth_hurts]

Same age, play in the same position. It would be like signing a 60m gk and suggesting that Leno has a future.
