    While I still think it was a mistake to buy him, I think he has a better chance of coming good at Arsenal than somewhere like United or Real. United is an extremely toxic club that would’ve shattered what little confidence Havertz has, while Real is the greatest club of all time and you have a very limited window to suceed there before someone better comes along.

    At Arsenal I feel like there’s a perfect balance of competitiveness and familiarity that can help Kai realize his potential, if there is any. Arteta obviously sees something in him that I don’t, and he’s willing to give a lot of time to players he believes in, for better or worse.

    I really hope Kai becomes good here, because if he fails, questions need to be asked about giving Chelsea 60m for a proven flop. I really hope Mikel can unlock his potential.

      Can’t imagine how some of today’s fanbase would react to Titi’s debut season with us.

      Signed like half the revenue, big gamble. Exciting talent who made a big move and flopped badly. And scored what, only 1 league goal in 15 matches as a fucking striker? What a disaster of a signing.

      Not saying Kai will turn out to be Henry 2.0. But Edu & Arteta have done good work so far. Let’s give it a little bit of time and get behind the lad.
