Arsenal attacker Havertz aware of early criticism: Not the first time

Arsenal attacker Kai Havertz says he's "relaxed" over the criticism coming his way.

The summer signing from Chelsea has been hammered by pundits and fans for his slow start to life as a Gooner.

But Havertz says: "Sure, things like that keep you busy.

"But I've often had a phase and that you often only see the negative. It's not the first club where I'm starting over.

"Of course, you want to be successful as quickly as possible, but I know that there are phases like that. I try to approach it in a relaxed manner."
