Ex-Arsenal striker Adebayor: Havertz not that good

Former Arsenal and Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor is not a fan of Kai Havertz.

The German has been in very good form in recent weeks as he leads the line for the Gunners.

However, ex-Real Madrid attacker Adebayor believes the Gunners need a better focal point up top.

“He has adapted well, but I am not a big fan of the player, to be honest," he remarked, per The Mirror.

“He isn't that strong and when you are playing up front for a team like Arsenal.

“First and foremost, you have to be strong and you have to be clever. He's a very good player with the feet.

“Football is a game, whenever you score, you are the hero and when you don't score, then you are the villain. If he doesn't score and Arsenal ends up losing, then the fans won't be happy about it.

“But if he manages to score a goal and get a win for his team, as he is doing at the end of the season for his team, then he will be the hero."
