Fans took to X to express their reactions after Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta didn’t include Kai Havertz in the starting lineup in the clash with Brentford in the Premier League. Both sides will face off at the Gtech Community Stadium on New Year's Day.
The Gunners will be hoping to capitalize on Chelsea’s slip-up against Ipswich Town on Monday (Dec. 30) and improve their standings on the Premier League table. The Gunners are currently in the third position on the table with 36 points after 18 games. A win against Thomas Frank’s men will see them move to the second position above Nottingham Forest, who are on 37 points after 19 games.
Kai Havertz has been one of Arsenal’s most important players in the ongoing season. The German has featured in all the Gunners league games this term bar one and has scored 12 goals and provided three assists in 25 appearances across competitions. He was on the scoresheet in Arsenal’s last two matches.
