Me, I would just concentrate on Jesus, as lets face it, Havertz will be there just making up the numbers and will be no threat. "Jesus and Havertz swap"....sure, first Arteta will have to teach Havertz how to run first. then he will have to teach him how to pass and lastly and this one could take the longest, how to close a Player down and to tackle.

​@@neovarleydownes9109😂😂😂is he that bad?

In a 4-4-2 yes. With Partey and Rice, 2 big CM in the middle

@@tolulopehenry3668 I have followed his whole career and sadly "yes", he is. Even as a Youngster, plenty of promise, plenty of potential, but will never realise it. He is "one of those", you know he has it, but he just will not apply it. He has no drive, no passion, no inclination, or willingness to learn. He has frustrated every Manager he has played under....no to mention quite a few Players. Simply put, he has the promise, he has the potential, but he is too lazy to find it. So he just continues to con Clubs into paying huge prices for him, because of that promise and potential, but Arteta, like so many Managers before him, will learn and Arsenal will be selling him by the time the 3rd, of 4th Season comes along, just like all the Clubs before them and who knows, by then clubs might have seen through him and wont bother, unless they can get him on the cheap.

@@neovarleydownes9109 What makes you such an expert on his mentality?

@@Sean-ps7bd even Raheem Sterling looked like a bum in that Chelsea team.

Roger it's an odd one. I'm told how technical he is, but he looks clumsy. And he always plays the safe ball. I'm putting it down to confidence. If/when he gets his confidence back to try things I hope we'll see something. But honestly I would prefer ESR.

Chelsea got him for 72M. He gave Chelsea UCL trophy and Chelsea sold him for 65M. That’s means Chelsea spent 7M to get a champions League. Good business in my opinion so I don’t see Chelsea regretting this sale.

my question is: can he recover like xhaka?

@@mikellburna he would be asked to, very reason arteta wants rice is to make the recoveries

@@blackpilltv4388 he should be quick with sealing the deal then

Xhaka's job was to replace Ramsey, yet another very capable box-to-box midfielder. However, the thing is, he had exceeded it and started to play like a striker despite of his limits. So, Arteta demanded him because of this - he wanted Havertz to challenge Xhaka's limitation in play.

@@mikellburna No, he is similar to Odergaard at best, but not quite a midfielder. Honestly, it's been confusing to see what kind of position that suits him the best. But if I were to think about it, then it would be a role where he could be both MF and ST.

I make you absolutely right mate. Chelsea have stifled him so obviously it's almost as if they aren't aware of the player they have in thier possession. Could be a great bit of recruitment from the Arsenal staff and £65m a decent price. It could well be a steal. Edit: sort of renders this video laughable tbh.

He was playing up front for levekuzen and scored 17 gls so no one knows his best position so u can't rlly blame Chelsea for that

@@mikelchristopher8135 he only played up front when Bayer had two forwards injured.

I agree that will be his main role but like every other Arteta signing, he will need to play in a plethora of roles.

Interesting, exactly what I thought. You could check my comment that I just posted somewhere here, but more or less, it would be what Arteta expected from him. However though, Xhaka is less mobile and agile compared to him (don't get me wrong, Xhaka still is but not as much compared to his prime). So, what Arteta wanted is probably this: give Havertz a playing style that suits him the best, and see what he can do.

LOL! That last sentence! I think he'll do a good job but Arsenal need a centre forward maybe Balogun?

Is he immensely talented now that we're about to sign him?

@@F_Dot_ mate I support Dunfermline. Your club bias is weird. Havertz is an incredibly talented player and that's obvious to anyone with eyes

They go forward and run back together as a team. Xhaka defended well and attacked well same as ødegaard

Havertz is 24 and could be another Odergaard as in going missing and getting subbed in most games and spend years winning fuck all at Arsenal

Interesting, he may have assumed like I did that J is the Spanish jota which is closer to Hay than Jay (most like Scottish loch). But having just looked at a video on Portuguese Brazilian it does seem that they pronounce the J more like English.

I'm guessing you're an American soccer fan right?

Nope, definitely not Rice. Rice is meant to fill the playmaking role, definitely not Xhaka.

@@kohikappu Who told you that, Maggienoodle or Nihongo Mantappu?

@@hanx3560 None, just my theory. You could read my post for details.

"Xhaka into a key goal scoring false no9" Jesus fuck christ what did i just read Stick to video games ffs

You can't cross from the 'half space' ffs. Crossing happens from wide. Otherwise every pass into the box is a cross.

A1 since Day 1 🤝

Simple, let's wait and see

that need for senior leadership in the locker room is why Jorginho is not going anywhere. He's key in this sense and accordingly, will likely be made a vice-captain.

Leadership 😂😂😂😂 There is absolutely fuck all difference when xhaka isn't playing. Please for the love of god go support spurs - you xhaka fanboys are cracked ffs

I also think he will be a ss esp when Jesus drops. So far based on preseason, he doesnt seem to be it, but he does a few things here and there which the presenter also mentioned. What do you think ?

Garbage sport who cares

Cp3 is 6’2 curry is 6’3

@@banjiajiboye7886 I know and they were drafted over 15 years ago nowadays guards are 9 times out of 10 over 6’4 or they don’t usually last in the league

Arsenal have purposely started playing more direct football and not playing down the wings and crossing which is why they had such a good season bottling the league and winning fuck all again for the 3rd year running. Tw@

they want 150m for him...

Of course bargaining. But talking to his agent. United wants him so why not Arsenal.

@@XStoffe We shouldn't take him because he would take Jesus' position. It is obviously either Jesus or a true striker (Osh/Vla/etc.), and the latter costs a fortune and would put Jesus into the exact position as he was once in at City before joining us. Doing so (I think) also breaks Mikel's promise to Jesus.

Craig Shakespeare?

*1.93m

Balogun is 5"10

Yeah because Chelsea are horrible, Arsenal though....

@@IShowSheesh You will need Declan Rice to do the work of two people in midfield, and he may be able to!

@@douglaswright2143 Exactly man. This Arsenal team already cook without Rice. Rice will definitely take them to the next level!

He was legit at Leverkusen

@@Ishouldstudy69 No he wasn't. Again, the odd good game and that was it. 119 games, 36 goals, 22 assists, playing for one of the top Teams in the Bundesliga, is not exactly pulling up trees. Take season 2017/18. 30 games, 5 goals, 7 assists. Compare that with Volland, playing the same position, only the other side, 35 games, 27 goals, 14 assists. That is what Havertz should be doing, but never gets anywhere near that.

​@@neovarleydownes9109Big time misrepresentation going on here. Firstly, Havertz used to play as a CAM at Leverkusen. Kevin Volland was the main striker, the guy who'd hold up the ball and do the dirty stuff up front. 2017/18 was also only his 2nd season in senior level football, so the stats don't tell the whole story. There's a very good reason why Chelsea threw roundabout 100 odd million at this dude (including add ons) in 2020 and it just hasn't worked out cause of all the upheavel and playing as a.makeshift forward under the likes of Lampard. Even Fat Frank would've struggled in his heyday if he was played as a target man.

@@jamaicansonnets1560 the reason I gave that Season as an example is because Volland played the exact same position as Havertz did that Season. Volland was played out of position, not Havertz and I was comparing how the two faired. Havertz might like to play there, but he is too lazy to play there. EVERY Manager under him, has watched him play there, tried all sorts of partnerships and tactics and then tried to turn him into a Striker and simply put, told him just to score goals, don't bother to run, or challenge, unless he wants to, quite simply because he cant. Watch him play...."closely"...he will only run if the ball is coming towards him, he makes challenged a 6 year old makes and heaven help him he should actually put any effort into them. why should he run 20 yards to retrieve a ball, where there is a Team Mate 20 yards further away, that is willing to do it. Every Manager sees something in him, so they buy him, then turns out he is not that good anywhere, exhaust all options and end up selling him on. Lampard was only there 6 weeks and tried him in 4 different positions, playing with 6 different Players, using "8" different tactics with him, because that is what Lampard was asked to do and he still produced nothing. hell, Lampard tried him in 4 different tactics in one game, just to get a rise out of him. I saw Potter do it too. Bosz, in Havertz's last Season with Leverkusen, he did it also. Lampard was asked to do something similar with Felix and that is also why Chelsea did not bother making the move permanent. Lampard was asked to do all sorts of experiments with Players, it was why he was put there, the results were irrelevant, Couching Staff just wanted to assess several Players before the Season finished, just to make sure who was to be sold and who was to be kept. Now it is Arteta's turn and Arsenal will be doing the exact same thing, once Arteta has finished pulling his hair out over him. Chelsea paid ott for havertz, just as they have for Pulisic, Ziyech, Sterling, Chilwell, Cucurella, Fofana, Mudryk, Fernandez, Kepa and certainly Lukaku. It is what Chelsea seem to do, they just love to waste money. All Managers that Havertz has played under, have done the same as CFC and Lampard and he turned out to be crap for all of them. When Chelsea came along with their £81m offer, Leverkusen must have been in a stake of euphoric shock and thanking their lucky stars. The whole deal from start to finish, took 1 and a half days....I wonder why. £81m to Chelsea, his transfer value then was £66m. £68m now and his transfer value is £52m, I know what that is telling me....Havertz has found another Mug. You keep giving excuses for Havertz, everyone that likes Havertz, keeps giving excuses for him. He quite simply is not that good, as now Arsenal and Arteta will find out. Its a shame, because he has potential...."potential"....there is that word again :0)

​@@neovarleydownes9109I will come back for you, I promise 😂

@@adjoae ok

​@@adjoaejesus, zinny, gabs, saliba, rams, white... not superstars yet, but were excellent for most of last season; they can only get better

Pepe's taller and at 72m was an absolute fuckin steal looooooool

its all the stuff he said plus headers. Which is important rather than buying another forward for even more money

I disagree, but we shall see...

Wrong

He just retired

3years at Chelsea not one

You neither understand the video nor football itself. Just like Chelsea.

He's not going to play forward majority of the time. He's going to be playing the advanced 8 role.

More a midfielder. Replaces Xhaka.

Jesus is a good player but I don't think he can bench martinelli

Rubbish

He ain't benching Martinelli. Not a chance.

You’re drunk mate
