Kai Havertz

Viktor Gyökeres scored and assisted in Arsenal's Champions League win at Slavia Prague. Mikel Arteta said he "needed that performance." Asked if rotating with Kai Havertz has been hard, he said: "I imagine that every player wants to play every game and Viktor is no different."

Kai Havertz's dip in form is not linked to his hamstring issue, Mikel Arteta said, admitting the Arsenal forward's numbers have dropped: "Full trust on him." Asked whether Havertz or Viktor Gyökeres did enough to start at Anfield on 1 November, Arteta did not commit to either.
