Why former Chelsea player is struggling at Arsenal

Football pundit Chris Sutton has shared his thoughts on Kai Havertz’s struggles for form at Arsenal.

Sutton believes Havertz is grappling with a crisis of confidence to make an impact at Arsenal since his summer transfer to the club.

Recall that Havertz arrived at Emirates Stadium from Chelsea, where he had failed to impress, especially as Mikel Arteta was considering him a worthy replacement for Granit Xhaka who left in the summer.

However, since Havertz’s move to the Emirates, his performances have been disappointing, but Arteta has continued to place his trust in the German for whom the club paid a substantial fee to sign.

Sutton in reaction to Havertz’s performances so far at Arsenal concluded that he is currently struggling with a crisis of confidence.

He said on the Daily Mail Podcast:

‘Havertz looks a broken man, a player with absolutely zero confidence. Having been there myself, it’s not a nice place to be.

‘The effort is there but he seems muddled. decision-making isn’t good. He’s trying but looking at his body language… he needs a break, a big moment. Not sympathy penalties like earlier in the season.’
