Arsenal hero William Gallas does not have a lot of time for German attacker Kai Havertz.

The attacking midfielder has struggled to integrate himself into Mikel Arteta's team this season.

The 24-year-old has a goal and assist in 12 games, with his biggest issues coming as a central midfielder in Arteta's attacking formation.

Gallas, who won the Premier League with Chelsea in the 2000s, told Lord Ping: "I'm not impressed with Kai Havertz so far.

"He's done nothing since he joined Arsenal. He may have scored, but that was only because Martin Odegaard let him take a penalty!

"Havertz hasn't done anything yet, and I think he's in trouble.

"I don't think Arsenal should have signed Kai Havertz. I think that was a mistake. If you spent 60million on a striker, you expect them to score at least 15 goals in a season! I don't think that'll happen

"Arsenal don't have time! The season may be long, but clubs need results straight away.

"Havertz was at Chelsea for three years and knows the Premier League well.

"It may take a while to settle into a new team, but he already lived in London!

"Players need to adapt immediately they don't have time."
