One episode from Everton game busts myth of Kai Havertz as 'liability'
  • In Kai Havertz's first months at Chelsea, he's already been described as a 'liability', a 'lightweight' and as someone who is 'not bothered' - and that's only from former football pros.
  • Well, in the Everton game, Havertz showed that such criticism might be a bit baseless.
  • Everton were controlling the ball in Chelsea's half, but every path to go forward was blocked for them. A pass backwards ensued, with Kai on the same line with Alex Iwobi but moving in the same direction with the ball:
  • Allan got the ball near the centre circle - with Havertz continuing the run:
  • Allan is forced to pass further back to Michael Keane - with Havertz picking up the pace:
  • And Keane gets the ball to his goalkeeper, but Kai never stops and forces Jordan Pickford to kick the ball out of the pitch.
