This Arsenal team seems to have so much chemistry.

Every single player seems to click almost perfectly with their teammates, and there are some truly incredible partnerships within this team.

William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes both work brilliantly together at centre-back, as do Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli on the wings.

Arsenal’s midfield unit has been slightly disjointed at times this season, but according to Kai Havertz, speaking on Sky Sports, he absolutely loves playing with both Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard in this Arsenal team.

Havertz spoke about his midfield partners.

“We [Havertz, Odegaard and Rice] are all young, I think we are a similar age group. It’s amazing to play with them,” Havertz said.

“They’re both top players and we are still getting used to each other, it is only five months that we’ve know each other. Hopefully there’s a big future ahead of us as well.”

Helped him massively

To say that Kai Havertz has had a bit of a tough start at Arsenal this season would be an understatement, but the fact that he’s had Odegaard and Rice alongside him has helped him massively.

Indeed, these two players have picked up a lot of the slack when Havertz hasn’t been playing that well, and we can absolutely understand why Havertz really likes playing alongside these two.

Sadly, it has to be said that Havertz has been the weakest link in this midfield make-up this season, and while Rice and Havertz have been two of the Gunners’ very best players, Havertz has plenty of room to improve.

However, Havertz does still have plenty of potential – he’s shown it in glimpses at Arsenal as well as being a star at Bayer Leverkusen, and if he can tap into that more often at Arsenal, the Gunners will have one of the best midfield trios in world football.
