6. Kai Havertz

We all want to sing the song, don't we?

The ironic thing is that Arsenal ended up signing Kai Havertz for half price. The Germany international didn't get off to the best start in Arsenal red but he has certainly proven his worth as time has elapsed. Since returning to a more natural attacking position, Havertz has proven to be indespensible in this Arsenal lineup.

Havertz scored a brace against Chelsea in midweek, with two great finishes. He is now at a tally of 11 Premier League goals for the season which is not a bad return at all.

The last time Arsenal played Tottenham, Havertz was still adjusting to his new surroundings and he was arguably being used in a weaker position. Therefore, he will be eager to make amends in this match since he is in the form of his life.

Needless to say, his frightening height will be an invaluable asset to Arsenal in this game and could prove to be a valuable differential which stirs the tie.
