Kai Havertz says the pain of crashing out of the Champions League at Bayern Munich last season has motivated Arsenal to improve their away form in Europe. The Gunners were knocked out of the Champions League at the quarter-final stage after losing in their second leg at Bayern Munich.

However, it was Kai Havertz who proved Troy Deeney’s recent comments correct with his performance against the Portuguese outfit. Speaking earlier in the month on The Stomping Ground, the former Watford striker claimed the Arsenal striker was better than Sporting’s in-form Swede.

Eagle-eyed Arsenal fans spotted exactly what Kai Havertz said in a Gunners training ground video this week – and it speaks volumes. Havertz, 25, has led Arsenal ’s attacking line for much of the season, having already chipped in with four goals and one assist in 11 Premier League appearances this term.
