Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard heaped praise on Kai Havertz following the 5-1 Premier League win over Manchester City on Sunday.
The London giants had a good opening half and they should have scored more than once. Havertz provided the assist for Odegaard’s second-minute goal.
Havertz had the opportunity to score his own before the break, but the German fluffed his lines, much to the surprise of many Arsenal fans.
The 25-year-old, however, made amends by scoring in the second half. Speaking after the game, Odegaard said that Havertz had a massive impact.
He said: “Massive impact again today. You see everything he does. He scored and assisted, he is always there with and without the ball – a top player.”
Havertz has been criticised over the past few weeks due to his inconsistency, but he has still fared well with 15 goals this term.
The German is not a specialist striker, but has still made his mark. He will be aiming to build a scoring run as the club push for the title.
