Arsenal’s supporters have flooded to social media on Sunday evening, to make clear once again their frustrations with one member of the club’s squad.
Mikel Arteta’s troops, of course are currently locked in action.
After dropping their first points of the term at home to Fulham last time out, Arsenal welcomed long-time rivals Manchester United to The Emirates, eyeing a swift return to winning ways.
As things stand in north London, the Gunners have work to do in their bid to manage that, the two sides locked at a goal apiece after Marcus Rashford’s opener against the run of play was immediately cancelled out by Martin Odegaard.
And just like that Arsenal are back in it! 😲

Arsenal, to their credit, do look the more likely of the sides to ultimately find an all-important winner, with the likes of Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard, and Gabriel Martinelli impressing.
As alluded to above, though, on the flip side of things, another member of Arteta’s ranks has seen his latest display absolutely torn to shreds online.
After being thrown back into the middle of the park in the absence of Thomas Partey on Sunday, German international Havertz, a big-money summer arrival in England’s capital, has struggled once again.
In fact, after missing a hugely presentable chance to put the hosts ahead early on, the former Chelsea man was also responsible for surrendering possession, en route to Rashford’s opener.
In turn, despite boss Arteta having leapt to his defence during the week, Havertz has been singled out for heavy criticism once more across social media:
Havertz is a disaster 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
That guy should not be starting any serious match.

Havertz is a disaster omg!

Havertz missed a sitter and gives a ball away for the counter where rashford scores. Surely we should be playing trossard/ESR there and slowly acclimate him to the team.

what does Havertz even do ? what is his position ? what is he good at??

Havertz with the worst half from an Arsenal player since Havertz vs Fulham.

Havertz strike 2.
He’s missed a clear chance and he’s given the ball away that’s led to us conceding.Let’s see what Arteta has to say about this amazing guy now

If we had a proper LCM in this game, we win it easily. Games are won in the transfer window.
Can’t even sub out Havertz right now because of the hit to his confidence. Gotta be Odegaard for Vieira.

Havertz has been the worst player on the pitch… again

I’m genuinely done with the Havertz thing. Just honestly done
