He ain’t bad. He’s normal.

Last season Partey was doing that while Xhaka was playing a box to box role. While Havertz is trying to do Xhaka’s work, he is just too indecisive, lacking in composure and energy to be effective.

He has only been at our club for 1.5 years and I have already read this headline way too many times.

Why is Havertz there when most of the last season Chelsea played him as a target man?

He is in a tough spot, he is a playmaker like Odegaard and so he will likely replace him in cup matches or in case of injury in competition with Veira. He could play as no 8 but I think Arteta prefers a more physical and defensively capable player there.
