Kai Havertz has become Arsenal through and through since his move from Chelsea.
The German scored one of the most important goals in the Blues’ history, the winner in the Champions League final, but he still never got the credit he deserved from their fans.

Arsenal are joining Man United in making staff redundant… what are your thoughts? 😬 This comes just days after giving Arteta a new £20m per year deal…
Arsenal are on a completely different level compared to Chelsea right now.
The Gunners won the Premier League title last season, while the Blues finished 10th. Mikel Arteta also picked up three wins and a draw in four games against the West Londoners last campaign.
Even this season, Arsenal comfortably beat Chelsea in the Premier League, with Havertz scoring the opener in that game. They are already five points and four places above Xabi Alonso’s side.
To add to that, the North Londoners are in the Champions League, while the Blues aren’t even in Europe, which is common knowledge to everyone.
Yet, in a video on Arsenal’s social channels with Riccardo Calafiori, when the duo had to guess the teams in this season’s Champions League, Havertz surprisingly named Chelsea.
Of course, he was wrong, and even though he said it with a straight face, many Gooners think he intentionally mocked his former employers.
One fan tweeted: “Havertz knew what he was doing when he said ‘Chelsea’.”
Another wrote: “Kai Havertz doesn’t like Chelsea.”
“Chelsea? He’s trolling,” said another.
Another Arsenal fan reacted by saying: “Kai, you know Chelsea ain’t in that, bruh.”
“Havertz intentionally mentioned Chelsea, knowing they are not in the Champions League this season, is hilarious,” wrote another.
“Chelsea? Havertz, man. What a troll,” posted another.
We don’t know for sure if Havertz is intentionally mocking Chelsea, but what’s clear is that he has completely dominated them since joining Arsenal.
The Gunners have an incredible recent record against the Blues. They haven’t lost any of their last 12 meetings, winning nine and drawing three.
Havertz has definitely played his part. In his seven appearances against Chelsea since joining Arsenal, he has won five and drawn two games. He has also scored four goals in those fixtures.
Chelsea fans were never too keen on Havertz even when he played for them. Now, we’re sure they dislike him even more, but he will not care, nor will the Arsenal supporters.
