From an ugly duckling to a Swan”, “What a player” - Arsenal fans left stunned by display from ‘monster’ player in 3-0 win vs Brighton.

-
Mikel Arteta talked up Kai Havertz's qualities before the Brighton game.

 Havertz has well and truly won over Arsenal fans and they were thrilled with his performance in his side's 3-0 win against Brighton & Hove Albion today (April 6).

The 24-year-old is enjoying somewhat of a career renaissance at the Emirates since arriving from Chelsea last summer. There were huge question marks over his transfer which set the Gunners back £65 million.



However, Havertz has been in blistering form as of late and that was the case in the victory over Brighton at the Amex. The German attacker grabbed Arsenal's second goal of the game in the 62nd minute.

Jorginho found Havertz with a low-driven cross and he made no mistake tucking the ball past Belgian goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen. It took his tally for the season to 11 goals and five assists in 43 games across competitions.

Havertz turned provider for Leandro Trossard in the 86th minute with a neat assist. The Belgian came back to haunt his former club with an excellent finish.

Bukayo Saka opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 33rd minute to put the visitors in front. The win took the north Londoners to the top of the Premier League.

Havertz came in for huge plaudits on social media after another impressive display.

One fan pointed out the doubts that were placed on Havertz at the start of the season:

"Kai Havertz was voted the worst signing of the summer. Even our fans subjected him to vitriolic hate. Look at him now. From an ugly duckling to a Swan. The Mikel Arteta effect. So glad I never turned my back on him. He has the intangibles so he was always going to succeed."

Another fan dubbed the German a 'monster':

"Kai Havertz has been a monster today. Battled for every aerial ball and defended like his life depended on it. What a player."

Here's how fans on X (formerly Twitter) reacted to Havertz's showing as Arsenal ran riot at the Amex:

"Kai Havertz last 7 games: (five goals and four assists). Driving Arsenal towards the title. 'Havertz was a bad signing' they said it with such chest as well", one fan argued.
"Kai Havertz named Sky Player of the Match. Thank you Chelsea," another fan wrote.
"Goal: Kai Havertz. Assist: Jorginho. Goal made in Chelsea. Thank you Chelsea," another fan highlighted.
"Kai Havertz now has his most prolific Premier League season EVER after scoring his ninth in 23/24. A player reborn at the Gunners," Sky Sports posted.
"Arteta bought Kai Havertz for £60m and rivals were happy and thought we had been robbed," one fan laughed.
