Arsenal star Kai Havertz has been booed by his own supporters because they \u201cdon\u2019t want him in the side\u201d according to former Gunner Stewart Robson, after the German\u2019s disappointing start to life in north London. Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu paid \u00a365million to take the Germany international from Chelsea, but he is so far yet to live up to his price tag at the Emirates.<\/p>\n
Havertz is yet to score his first goal for Arsenal after four Premier League games and often looked wayward in midfield, playing off Eddie Nketiah and trying to fill Granit Xhaka\u2019s boots has not come with immediate success – having been hooked off in the Gunners\u2019 last two games against Fulham and Manchester United.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old has been criticised in the media for his performances, which were summed up with an air shot during the win over United before the international break. Robson has insisted that Havertz was not of the required standard of Chelsea and hasn\u2019t shown that with Arsenal, in debate with a Bundesliga journalist, which is why he claims the Gunners supporters are booing him.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe wasn\u2019t good enough, that\u2019s why they got rid of him,\u201d Robson told ESPN. \u201cYou can\u2019t keep defending players that go to the Premier League from the Bundesliga because you want to say that the Bundesliga is such a great league.<\/p>\n

You are trying to say Havertz was good enough for Chelsea, he wasn\u2019t. That\u2019s why they sold him.<\/p>\n \u201cHe has gone to Arsenal and the Arsenal fans don\u2019t want him in the side. They are booing him, at the moment. They don\u2019t want him in the team. They can\u2019t understand why Arteta is playing the system that he is playing to fit Havertz into it. He is struggling at Arsenal, at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

A truly modern-looking shirt with a homage to the past, the Nike kit also includes a nod to the club\u2019s iconic Invincible\u2019s side in the finer details while catching the eye with the lightning bolt motif<\/p>\n Arteta has already called for patience with his new signing, while Havertz himself has insisted that he is \u201crelaxed\u201d despite already being under pressure at his new club. \u201cSure, things like that keep you busy,\u201d Havertz said on international duty when asked about his stuttering start at Arsenal.<\/p>\n \u201cBut I\u2019ve often had a phase and that you often only see the negative. It\u2019s not the first club where I\u2019m starting over. Of course, you want to be successful as quickly as possible, but I know that there are phases like that. I try to approach it in a relaxed manner.\u201d<\/p>\n But with the Arsenal faithful seemingly losing trust in Havertz according to Robson and wanting him axed from the starting lineup, the German may have to improve his form sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n
