Ex-Chelsea player more missed than Havertz, says Gallas.
Todd Boehly, the owner of Chelsea Football Club, made the decision to sell off a number of experienced players last summer. One of these players was Kai Havertz, who was subsequently signed by Arsenal. However, William Gallas, a former player of both Chelsea and Arsenal, believes that Havertz's first season at Arsenal has been less than stellar and that his absence has not been felt at Stamford Bridge.

Despite the chaos and injuries that have plagued Chelsea this season, the team still has a chance to finish fifth in the Premier League. This would be a commendable achievement given the circumstances, especially considering the large amount of money that was spent last summer on new players. However, among the players who were brought in, a number of experienced players, including Havertz, were also let go.

Havertz has become somewhat of a cult hero at Arsenal, with his goals helping the team in their fight for the Premier League title. But Gallas believes that the 24-year-old should be doing even more, given his talent and price tag. He states that while Havertz has had a good season, he has not scored enough goals yet to justify his price.

Gallas also believes that the departure of Mateo Kovacic, another experienced player, has been a bigger loss for Chelsea. He argues that Kovacic's presence would have been beneficial for the team's two major midfield signings, Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. Gallas suggests that it may have been a mistake to let Kovacic go, as his experience could have helped the young midfielders develop.

In the end, Gallas believes that while it may have been the right move for Kovacic to leave, it may not have been the best decision for Chelsea. He suggests that the team could have benefited from keeping him for another season to provide guidance to the younger players. As for Havertz, Gallas still believes that he has room for improvement and hopes to see him reach his full potential in the future.
