"Jamie Carragher backs Kai Havertz to be Arsenal's striker Watch below as the pundit discussed Arsenal's search for a new striker, making it clear that he felt Kai Havertz would most likely come back in to the starting line up ahead of whoever came in pic.twitter.com/8yaDuXCUDK cmbftbl (@cmbftbl) December 10, 2025 This was quite a bold claim, but it now looks like once Havertz is fit again, there'd be a strong case for Mikel Arteta selecting him over Gyokeres."
"Gyokeres has, in fairness, only just come back from an injury, so perhaps he deserves a bit more time to find his best form. The 27-year-old was an absolute goal machine in Portugal, scoring 97 goals in 102 games at Sporting, so there's always a chance he'll rediscover that form here once he's more settled and confident. It's not happening for him at the moment, though, so it will be interesting to see if he can keep his place on"
Jamie Carragher predicted that Kai Havertz would most likely return to Arsenal's starting lineup ahead of any new striker. An old video resurfaced after another difficult night for Viktor Gyokeres, who has scored just six goals since joining the Gunners in the summer. Arsenal pursued a major investment up front after last season's struggles, yet Gyokeres has not matched his prolific Sporting Lisbon form. Gyokeres has only just returned from injury and may need more time to regain confidence and form. Havertz has faced criticism about playing up front but remains an underrated contributor and could regain the striker spot when fit.
