Chelsea suffered a humiliating 5-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal, with former Blue Kai Havertz scoring twice to haunt his old club. The loss marks Mauricio Pochettino’s heaviest defeat as Chelsea manager.
Despite Havertz’s impressive performance, Chelsea’s social media team refused to mention his name in their updates on the match, simply stating “Goal to the Gunners” for both of his goals. This led to amusement among fans, with some suggesting Chelsea were “ashamed” to say his name. Havertz, who joined Arsenal from Chelsea last summer for £65 million, has found success at his new club after struggling at Chelsea. Under Mikel Arteta, Havertz has thrived as a No9, showcasing his attacking qualities and physicality.
Arteta’s tactical adjustments have allowed Havertz to shine, and he is now seen as a key player for Arsenal’s style of play. The victory sees Arsenal maintain their push for a top-four finish, while Chelsea’s hopes of a successful season have been dealt a major blow.
