Havertz is only 23…played with Chelsea who had a terrible management…He is joining Madrid who have experienced players Chelsea doesn't have…Can you blame Madrid for snatching young players? Their mistake with Hazard will NEVER HAPPEN!
He can’t dribble. He can’t shoot with either foot. Movement is not that great. Heading ability is mediocre. Touch is pretty good. So he isn’t ready for Athletico madrid not alone Real madrid
I like Kai great for real Madrid
They should go for Wirtz, instead of Havertz
The problem at Chelsea isn’t the players, it’s the owners and management so maybe Havertz would be good for Madrid, he’s shown moments of real quality for Chelsea just not consistently. If Madrid will pay big money then sure sell but if it’s anything less than what’s left to pay off on his amortization plus like 10M then why not just give him another chance and see how he plays under Poch. Neither he nor the rest of the team will be as bad as last season.
It seems that we're always blaming the forwards for failing at Chelsea rather than Chelsea failing them? When you see guys like Torres, Morata, Falcao, and Lukaku shine at other clubs who, by the way, were also playing in big clubs with big competitions, suddenly play bad at Chelsea, it's always their fault! Yet the common figure is always Chelsea, so why is Chelsea always being excused??? These guys fumbled players like de bruyne and salah as well. It's a club that should be instead known for wasting a strikers career!
We should be calling chelsea as the graveyard of forwards careers not excusing them, smh.
I think we Spaniards see football differently. The moment Havertz came in the last game in the Bernabéu it was evident he is a class player, a really good player. A different class compared to the one he substituted. You just need to see one touch, one control and one move to see how good he is. All the Spanish TV commentators and many of us fans thought he would do great in the Spanish league
They scouted an attacking midfielder and then tried to force him to play as a striker so i am excited about him coming to Madrid with the attacking midfielder in mind not the forced striker
I'm a Real Madrid fan and I WANT Havertz. You can say what you like about him this season but, at the end of the day, he's STILL better than Asensio and is an upgrade on what we had this season outside of Benzema, Vini and Rodrygo. If he's a replacement for Asensio, I don't see what the problem is. Best wishes to Asensio but Havertz is better.
I love what Madrid are doing with some of our loan players. Brahim Diaz would be good replacement for Asensio
It's all on the coach and how they develop players. If you see Zidane was an amazing coach but he couldn't develop players. Rodrigo and Vini were not becoming who they needed to be. Ancelotti came in and made them top players in a respectful 2 yrs. Casemeiro, Kroos, Di Maria, Jese, all these young players were given a chance and developed my Ancelotti.
Never find something special with this guy he was just a hype like few others
Harvets will shine at Real Madrid ✅
Havertz lacks football intelligence. He has the physique to be useful player, but he cannot cut it at elite level.
To be frank I think havertz is still a good player because he has been played out of position in Chelsea, I think the only bad season he has had his this past season and it's understandable considering that the entire Chelsea squad has been poor this season
They are making him look like a dumb because he is not a english player.
Havertz is just not a good player
I would think these guys said this about De Bruyne or Salah. They said the samething with Ordgaard stevie whine now everyone is singing his praises. Players do fail and go to other big clubs and succeed. Sometimes you don't fit the environment.
Hope Madrid is not panicking. Rebuild needs time. Hope the fans patient enough (i hardly think so). They have endrick as well 2024, might fluke but need game time. So i hope they dont do panic purchase
Chelsea fans are even dumber than their chairman. Letting go off Havertz is the dumbest thing they had done since letting go Salah and De Bruyne.
10G/A in almost 50 games …..
What player was he, please?
I didn't realize they ran futbol clubs?
Havertz should go back to leverkusen
😂
Don't forget that KDB and Salah couldn't perform in Chelsea as well. Sometimes it is not the player, it is the system, the tactics, the environment, etc.
He's 23 and honestly chelsea have been playing him out of position. He is not a 9 striker. He's a second striker who can play off a number 9. He cannot be your focal point youre counting on 30 goals from. I think he thrives at Madrid.
Craig he is still young, and he will proof you wrong.
Its anceloti insisting on harvart.. need to get rid of anceloti
He had a flight booked for Madrid a year ago
One of the most overrated players on earth 😅
Let's not forget Kai havertz at Leverkusen was a phenomenal
am not a Chealse fan but from what i've heard is that CF is not his comfortable position
He is talented tho…Under good coaching ya never know.
This is big mistake for real
