Since arriving from Chelsea in the summer, Havertz has often faced fierce criticism from pundits and fans alike, myself included, at times throughout the season.

Despite this, he has never once complained and put in a top-level performance against the Blades, which is just the latest great display from the German, who is now showing exactly why Mikel Arteta was so keen to sign him in the summer.

His goal was taken excellently, while also registering an assist and four key passes throughout the remainder of the game, which saw him be one of the most influential players on the pitch.

His general passing was also something to behold, having maintained a 93% pass success rate throughout the game.

His all-around play was sublime too, having held the ball up remarkably well in attack, while not committing a single foul when called into a more defensive role, though this did not happen very often.
