Kai Havertz has disclosed that there was one area they want to have improved on.
Kai Havertz scored one more goal as the Gunners defeated Burnley 5-1 Sunday to maintain their incredible recent run of success.
In recent weeks, the German attacker has started to pick up speed. Havertz is currently playing a major role in the team after being closely watched for the whole of the season after leaving Chelsea for £65 million.
Speaking on the previous two victories, the 24-year-old disclosed during yesterday’s match that Arsenal was disappointed not to score an early goal against West Ham the week before and intended to rectify that at Turf Moor.
We needed a strong start to the game, and we didn’t have one against West Ham. The early goal was crucial to us because we wanted to change that. We’re pleased with the victory and we scored a few more quality goals,” Havertz remarked.
Arsenal is aiming for excellence.
Similar to Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, Mikel Arteta is bringing to Arsenal the same drive for flawless performances.
Any other squad that had triumphed 6-0 away from home would have thought they had struck gold. not Arsenal, though.
They’ve gone away, examined what wasn’t quite right, and then went to Burnley to make sure they did something different, as Havertz implies here.
It’s a terrifying thought for the rest of the Premier League. Mikel Arteta effectively watched his squad destroy the Hammers six goals to none before leaving to focus on something he wanted done even better.
Arsenal is playing well right now. In just three games, they have scored 14 goals and given up just one.
It is championship-winning form, and at this pivotal point in the season, it will prime them for a final, massive drive following the international break.
