“I am seriously disappointed I’m him because why on earth would he ever thought of doing that?”- Arsenal Legend Ian Wright was left annoyed with what Arsenal star player did against Porto last night
Arsenal legend Ian Wright found himself deeply frustrated during the recent Champions League match between Arsenal and Porto, directing his ire towards Arsenal’s player Kai Havertz. Wright’s exasperation peaked as he observed the game on Sky Sports, particularly focusing on Havertz’s actions.
Initially, Wright defended Martin Odegaard’s disallowed goal, considering it fair play. However, his tone quickly shifted when he spotted Havertz’s indiscretion: a clear tug on Pepe’s jersey. Expressing disbelief, Wright openly questioned why Havertz would resort to such tactics.
Havertz’s performance against the seasoned Pepe showcased flashes of brilliance tainted by lapses in judgment, notably the ill-timed jersey pull that overshadowed Odegaard’s scoring opportunity.
Transitioning from a lackluster spell at Chelsea, where he often appeared disengaged, Havertz has undergone a remarkable transformation under Mikel Arteta’s guidance at Arsenal. The substantial £65 million investment is now paying off as Havertz demonstrates a newfound hunger on the field, relentlessly pursuing goals and pressuring opposing defenders.
Arteta’s tactical prowess has seamlessly integrated Havertz into the team, leveraging his energy and intelligent movement to create scoring chances, particularly in partnership with the dynamic Bukayo Saka.
Despite initial doubts surrounding his move to North London, Havertz is swiftly establishing himself as a key player in Arsenal’s lineup, playing a crucial role in their quest for success.
