Kai Havertz

[NikkiCFC 7,656]

His form is different level since new year which is nothing new. In Bayer his form also rapidly went up in second part of the season after the break.

It would be even better if he was not unreasonably dropped against City, Brighton, Spurs twice and ok Luton was rest. Now we need him to start every game for the rest of the season except maybe FA Cup 1/4 final or something.

Starting to realise what he has to offer, @Jase ? 😉

[MoroccanBlue 5,232]

Currently on 11 goals for the season. Farfetched to think he can end at 20?

[Milan 17,838]

This important thing is to keep playing him. Let Lukaku enjoy Boro in the FA Cup. But Havertz is the main man and by the looks of it, TT is luckily feeling the same.

[NikkiCFC 7,656]

It was only question when this is going to happen. Eden level in Chelsea or CR in United after 2003... This is his level.

I just can't shake of the paranoia Lukaku will get another chance once he has an appearance of the bench like Villa away.

If he doesn't then great news, genuinely believe we have a chance of retaining the UCL with Kai up top.

KING KAI

Building team around him wont be easy. We need to be smart when looking for new attacking players. I am not sure who they should be. We can list names here but no one really knows will they be success. Raphinha for example.

Lukaku and Werner should be sold asap. I believe in Pulisic, he has good link up with Kai. Gallagher will be great addition.

                     Mendy

         Kounde Silva Rudiger

James   Gallagher   Tcho   Chilwell

                ?  Havertz ?

 

These wingers need to show vision and creativity none of our boys have. Not sure about Conor in double pivot but Kante and Kova lack of end product is not good and he should be able to start ahead of them. But maybe for front 3? TT is pragmatic so who knows or formation change? He could be 3rd MF. Kounde can cover both James and Silva. And will Tcho bring enough cover for back 4 transition?

Think our whole outlook on new transfers is up in the air. Only those for certain are Broja and Gallagher (I hope Tuchel uses them)

New owner could also mean a new transfer targets. I'm not sure we will still planning the likes of Kounde, Tchouameni/Rice, and Raphinha.

Hopefully the idea of Rice flies straight out of the window.

A £100m stylistic misfit two years in a row would be criminal.

At this point we can rule out £100m for Rice, unless we get someone like Roman or Arabs state.

Love this boy.

Everyone try and imagine had it been Werner or Lukaku in that same scenario.  😂

The ball would of shanked off Werner's shin and out for a goal kick, whilst simultaneously be called offsides. 

Lukaku's first touch would of had the ball clear over the bar.

Kai’s goal, now thats how you control a ball, the wasted opportunity by Werner when he was onside and failed to control the ball had me fuming.

And moments earlier Kante ignored playing a ball having Werner through.

what a gem of a player, on another day he would have had a hattrick if not for Dubravka, great ball control and goal, this is the Havertz we signed from Leverkusen, Tuchel has done wonders for him, big game player no doubt, long may it continue.

Lukaku would have stood on the edge of the box (which is what he was doing anyway instead of running into the gaping space to give Kai the option to square it) then would have complained the pass wasn't right when his touch set up a Newcastle counter attack.
