‘His situation is Getting worse,He is not helping the team at all,I don’t know why Arteta keeps starting Him all the time’: Piers Morgan tears into £280,000-a-week Arsenal player despite Burnley Win
Piers Morgan has given his verdict on Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz while watching him in action against Burnley at the Emirates Stadium.
The Arsenal fan and TV personality was not at all impressed with what he saw from Havertz in the Premier League game on Saturday.
So, what has Piers Morgan said about Arsenal attacker Kai Havertz?
Let’s take a look.
What’s the story?
Well, Arsenal took on Burnley at the Emirates Stadium in North London in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Gunners won the match to maintain their challenge for the Premier League title.
Kai Havertz started the game for Arsenal.
Havertz, who joined Arsenal from London and Premier League rivals Chelsea in the summer transfer window, started on the right of a midfield-three.
The 24-year-old Germany international came off on 59 minutes.
During his time on the pitch, the £280,000-a-week (Spotrac) midfielder took two shots and none of them was on target, played one key pass, had a pass accuracy of 77.3%, won three headers, took 31 touches, and put in one cross.
It was yet another disappointing performance from Havertz, and Arsenal fan and TV personality Piers Morgan has criticised him, as you can see below.
Arsenal are now second in the Premier League table with 27 points from 12 matches.
The Gunners are level on points with leaders and defending champions Manchester City, who have played 11 games.
Kai Havertz needs to do better for Arsenal
In my opinion, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has to seriously think about doing something with Kai Havertz.
While I applaud Arteta for sticking with Havertz despite him not playing well, there has to come a point when the Arsenal boss must think of replacing him with someone who deserves a place in the team more.
Against Burnley, Havertz did try his best and played some good passes, but he could not find that finishing touch.
There was also an occasion when the former Chelsea player failed to score from a free header.
I believe that Havertz has to step up his game for Arsenal.
