Good to see Havertz finally gaining confidence.

Couldn’t resist a smile when he almost stacked the traditional knee slide towards the corner flag. :)

Yup. Since the start of the Brentford game that's 4 goals in 5 starts and 2 sub appearances. Hopefully he can start chipping in with assists, but tbh, a decent pre-assist ball can be just as vital.

He's been working well in MF in terms of duels, tackles etc even when he wasn't scoring. But if he could keep up this scoring rate then we'll have a bargain and MA will have proved all the doubters wrong.

60 million down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again.

And the more he plays, the more he'll gel with Gabby and Zinny.

Great ball from Eddie, btw. He could have so easily played safe and under hit it, but he gave it a decent thwack. So it required a better first touch from Kai than a softer pass would have done but once he'd taken it, he had far more time and space than had Eddie hit it more weakly. Very good team counter-attack, from Leo to the skipper. Both of their passes took out 3 players which created that acre of space for Eddie. Also liked the way that Eddie ran 'round the ball before taking his one touch so he played it straight forward as opposed to diagonally and then the next touch was the slightly reversed pass.

I think there's a really good player in Eddie. Also nice to see ESR back and that maybe MA will start to give more minutes to RN24.

Ganpati bless, everyone.

Playing too much FIFA, I suppose.

Otherwise, he's been great lately. The boss has found the perfect role for him too. Fairplay.

Well said, G. Eddie showed great awareness there.

Eddie gets far too much stick on here. I also note us being linked with strikers who are not as good as him.

Exactly! I will stick with Eddie :-)

Yes, he does. People are trying to trick us into paying big money for that Esan warrior at Naples.

I am sure the club put these things out there to test the waters with the fans.
