    It’s mildly funny to me how people just gloss over how our midfield let us down last season (Partey more than the other two, but all three complicit) and blame it all on Holding. Something very similar is happening with Havertz this season. Scapegoating is very real in all of football- among fans, officials, FA, etc. the media of course thrives on it so no point going there. I just think it’s disingenuous to spend so much time and energy discussing Havertz than a player who has had roughly the same number of world class performances and stinkers, because his form actually affected our performances, unlike Kai’s. But you only see criticism for his lack of availability when that’s just one of the two football related issues.
