Arsenal: The big role Kai Havertz still has to play when Gunners sign killer No9 - Man City win showed best and worst of Havertz but he is someone who Mikel Arteta can rely upon

Mikel Arteta has described Kai Havertz as a genetic "powerhouse" and backed the Germany international to compensate for Arsenal's failure to sign a forward in January.

Ian Wright insists Kai Havertz is ‘doing a good job’ as a false No.9 for Arsenal despite his mixed performance in the side’s resounding 5-1 victory over Manchester City. Second-placed Arsenal swept past City at a bouncing Emirates to open up a nine-point gap between themselves and Pep Guardiola’s champions in the Premier League table.
