The 8.5 is a new position in the evolving game of football that combines the skills of a striker and a midfielder. This tendency was shown by Kai Havertz's 2022 transfer to Arsenal, when he went from being Bayer Leverkusen's second striker to Arteta's starting midfielder. This is consistent with the strategy of adding a spare midfield player while facing low-block opponents. Both offensive and defensive contributions are needed for the 8.5 role, as players like Cody Gakpo and Julian Alvarez demonstrate on elite teams. Football's changing needs are reflected in the decline of traditional No. 10 roles, as universal players in the Nos. 8 and No. 9 positions take over in a 4-3-3 formation.

good content bro but maybe go a bit less crazy on the "background" music, i was getting ready to invade mordor by the end of ur vid
Thanks for the tip bro!!
Hahaha agreed but just a tone down. Maybe take the lead from other journo creators like Cleo Abrams
😂😂
Stfu the music was banging
Yooooooo 🤣😂 Invading Mordor is hilarious but I agree the music at the end threw me off a bit. Good content though.
I really appreciate that you got your points off quickly and didn’t stretch the video out like most channels covering similar topics. Good work!
Havertz is everywhere on the pitch and causes chaos in defensive lines. He's creating so many chances through that!
Facts!!
And missing so many chances 😂😂😂 hes the secret weapon to bottle the league this year too, mark my words haha
@@Dawgman111poor lad knows nothing about tactics…
@@chrizzlatan1632 poor lad knows nothing about good football players
@@Dawgman111what are you yapping💀
If anything Havertz reminds me of Thomas Muller. An agent of chaos... He injects quality in surprising ways, in seemingly clumsy body language, but extremely efficient.
Muller is known for not being the fastest strongest or most anything, but probably one of the fastest decision makers and thinkers in world football. Havertz can be that kind of player.
I like this comparison!!!
Kai if used well is basically more technical and powerful\physical Muller @@FootballSocialClub
First half of the season, i really didn't understood why havertz was starting because he was sluggish..not scoring goals!! It's March 2024 now, i understood why arteta paid Chelsea 60 million 😊
Typical arsenal fans: only watched arsenal and not any other league
If you did, or at least did your research when arteta bought him, you would've seen this coming
@@wyg2935so "real" football fans have to watch every single pl game played?
60 millions down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again!
Remember when Thomas Muller said German players emphasized teamwork and not individuality? Kai Havertz has no real position of an outfield player but mostly operates as attacking midfielder or 2nd striker... surprisingly he played as left back for the national team
The Leverkusen Havertz is resurfacing with Arteta.
The one that Chels bought but didn't get when he was unwrapped, assuming due to tactics or positioning.
There was a reason why Chels paid 65m for him.
Havertz is not the kind of player you can buy and he'll just fit right in. You need to have the appropriate system. He's also not the flashiest player so for some people he may not pass the eye test (although he clearly did in Leverkusen), but he's truly a brilliant user of the space
Chelsea buying players they dont know how to use, what else is new?
@@simonsfooties The Havertz of 18/19 was 187cm tall while the Havertz of 23/24 is 193cm tall.
The leverkusen Havertz doesn't exist anymore and will never come back. A growth spurt at such a late age messes with the reaction time the body movement and the first touch of a player.
Havertz needed to reinvent himself and to figure out how his new frame works.
I think he will only get better and better from now.
I think Liverpool was the first club that had interest in Kai, for this very same reason when he was at Leverkusen. To replace Bobby Firminho, but that never happened and he ended up in Chelsea.
He's really a secret weapon... His aerial ability, his vision, sudden runs into opposition box, pressing, aerial duels arteta really using havertz perfectly
Arteta got a plan for Havertz
He can truly revive a player to glory again
@@Darkgunnerz He did it with Granit Xhaka 💯
Arteta signed a proven flop at Chelsea with a vision and plan. He knew how to utilise him because he knew how to use his strengths for his system. Arteta knows alot more and i think he has proved many critics wrong on several occasions now.
proven flop - only because of trainers who did not know how to use him and because of fans who expected a lot goals from him. he is a crucial part of every team he plays at and was never a proven flop
@@jacksons36 He was widely regarded as flop by majority of Chelsea fans and if he had left the league rather than joining Arsenal that way he would had went down as a flop in the PL in a nutshell.
Whatever the reason it doesn't change the fact that he was underperforming at Chelsea to an extent that it cannot even be considered average and yes it's Chelsea as a whole that's the issue not the player.
@@aryakarkera9377 yeah true he was underperforming and the cl winning goal didn‘t make it a perfect transfer
@@jacksons36 What are you on about exactly?
Also the only goal in the competition that season.🤣🤣
Arsenal saved his career.
@@aryakarkera9377 oh i was actually serious you mistook it as sarcasm bro
Kai is completely unbelievable
We saw the fourth goal, very sharp finishing from Kai. This guy has hit gear 4
Not just yet, bro is barely on the 2nd. He’ll be clocking a g/a per game religiously by the time he’s on 4th
Havertz creates space for his teammates in the midfield by dropping into midfield, and the defenders don't follow so he becomes an extra man in midfield. He fits into Arsenal's attack as an aerial threat as well. A lot of money but a really useful tactical option for Arteta, has won us many points so far this season
Its like a False 9, attacking midfielder or box to box midfielder.
It isn't though
Good video man, hopefully this will shed some light on havertz’ qualities to fans who aren’t as tactically aware..
Appreciate it bro
We love kai
Him is the man for arsenal football team arsenal always together with fans to the top on the world Africa Jamaica say dat time come
Arteta is really a Man with a plan!!!❤
Nice video.
You dont have to use music to bring your point across.
You already have a nice sounding voice.
Noted!, appreciate it mate👊
Havertz is a good player and always has been. He is just very unique and thus requires a coach that knows how to use him to be effective. Kind of like Muller.
Interesting, this new 8.5 role reflects the view of Michael Owen, where many premier league players these days are more athletes than real Ballers.
Football is a sport and Havertz can run for days. 🏃♂️ 🏃♂️ 🏃♂️
He’s work rate is underrated!!
Inverted Striker/Midfielder
As a German i knew what he can be
You saw it in Leverkusen he was always pure class
Everytime i see him play i see Zidane
Such a nice video, as many others said no need for music
as a new football fan & a fan of Arsenal I really hope he keeps improving I’m still not sold on him being our highest paid player but he has definitely been improving the last month
now I get where the hate comes from ^^ He really shouldnt be highest earner but hes still decent
@@wowrbhow is what I’m saying hate? I’m rooting for him just stating idk if where’s he’s at with his game he deserves the highest salary we literally have saka on our team lol
Calm down on the music
Been clear to me for a while that he's essentially a second no. 10 but this is great analysis. Do think it hurts it when you press our midfield though. Would have liked him to drop deeper when we played Porto in the first leg of the CL.
coach said to me you can play any position on the pitch you want.. if you indeed can play any position.
quality video
Mark my words germany will be surprise everyone this Euros.
With Sane basically doing what Saka is doing and a front three of Wirtz Musiala and Havertz? With none of them having a true position but being just everywhere on the pitch and all of them being masters in finding space? They will terrorize defenses by creating pure chaos
Signed him in 2023 not 2022..
Kai havertz is a sting to many big teams
Real football fans always knew this lol. I guess most people who watch don’t play very often so they can’t judge what he brings to the team!
Hes been doing this at chelsea for 3 years bruv. You're all just seeing it now bcos hes currently playing at arsenal 🤦♂️
Feel bad for Gabriel jesus he’s not getting game time again similar to his situation with pep
Good video. Thanks for making it
Love the straight forward topic. U earned a sub
The man mentioned Sturridge in the same breath as Dennis Bergkamp and Luis Suarez... Smh
He is looking to be the new RVP.
But less rapey..
Havertz role is a pest for opponent defender
Thumbnail is incredible
Great video but arteta bought havertz in 2023 not 2022
every false9 is Tiki-Taka managers favorite...
I'm obsessed too. I love it ❤
Great bro .. the sound is too much
Don’t listen to em bro… the music was lit 🔥
Arsenal bought Kai in 2023, not in 2022 0:35
Hectic that you used Ozil for the #10 thing lol especially when his shirt in the image says 11😂
His reputation suffered at Arsenal
I don't watch full Madrid games, but is this similar to Bellingham's role?
pepe is still using the old 2015 model mac smt
In England it's called a false number 9
good video but the music is a bit much. maybe something more chill?
I thought Havertz was a Giroud like up front striker,however Havertz is MR VERSATILE.Havertz at 6'4"has more ability to play up front than any other Arsenal player.I agree with the rumored thoughts at Man City that Jesus had a future as a right sided midfielder with a quick brain for assists and has passing ability with right foot as their De Bruyne who Jesus played with.Arteta got it wrong with Jesus the worry s he might continue to play his old failed tactic of Jesus up front pushing Havertz into midfield.The opposite of what should be.Jesus scoring 4 EPL goala all season.HAVERTZ 4 in 4 EPL matches in a row.
it already has a name... 'false nine'
this feels like a movie w this hype up ass music
Bought in 2023
so.. CAM?
Apparently it's someone who can't score.
Havertz touch is horrendous but he does cause chaos and movement is good
Gundogan was playing the same position havertz plays.
Changing or reverting? The best football i have ever seen is Zidane pulling the strings st Juventus. Bergcamp was too good, his teammates couldn't keep up.
Show a video of his striker's instinct to shoot on sight,and touch /mistakes and shots in the box///
Great video bro, not a huge fan of the music at the end
If there are no number 10s what position do you call Odegaard?
8, maybe a slightly more attacking box to box midfielder
lol gakpo..
TROSSARD not chtroscharts
❤
Can’t we say Raumdeuter?
60 million down the drain....!
Nice vid but maybe lose the football and talking, got in the way of some great ambient techno and inspirational war music.
Sorry music made me swch off
That background Music sucks 💯💯💯💯...I couldn't complete the video because of it 😮😮😮 +254🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
😂Chelsea fans are clueless
We really need to stop raving about Havertz so much and making him bigger than he is. Back at Chelsea they really thought he was going to win the Ballon d`or and believe me it will never happen. It's the most overrated player ever at the moment and everyone seems to be in denial. I wonder why first Chelsea paid so much money for him and now Arsenal. They should rather buy a real striker like Osimhen. I really watch a lot of football and I'd rather see a video of why Trossard is so under the radar.
Haha 🤡😂
The 8.5 role.. Stop making positions up.. he’s just a left sided attacking midfield that’s it.. it’s nothing new.. there is nothing newto where he plays and what his role is.. but you would know that if your football knowledge went back far enough.. Bergkamp cantana Alan smith they all used to play this way and 2 of them finished playing football nearly 30 years ago
None of those 3 played like that; Bergkamp and Cantona were simply the deeper lying striker in a 4-4-2, or the 9.5 as the Italians call it. Certainly not left sided midfielders.
I'm not sure which Alan Smith you mean but the Arsenal one was an out and out striker whilst the Leeds one was a striker who was then played as some kind of ridiculous midfielder for Man U and Newcastle, where he was a complete nonentity, either way as a player he was nothing like Bergkamp or Cantona.
The only thing you're correct about is this bloke doesn't know what he's talking about with his ridiculous 8.5 position.
Haavertz wasn't great for Arsenal in 2023 but jn 2024 he as well as the whole team have destroyed a bunch of shit teams (bottom 3) as well as beat some good teams in an awful run (Newcastle, West Ham, Palace). The Liverpool win was a fluke, all 4 goals were just crazy mishaps. Meanwhile when Arsenal played Liverpool in a normal game they lost 2-0 (FA Cup) and couldn't even muster a shot against Porto. The hype machine is annoying. Havertz is just a regular player who isn't that great. Arsenal payed double his value to get him from a London rival when they already have ESR and Viera. Wasting a CAM on winning back the ball is stupid and for all of Arteta's so-called genius, Arsenal can easily finish this season in 3rd with no trophies. Isn't that exactly what got Wenger canned? Give me a break.
Haha 🤡😂
So…Jude
Arteta with his Havertz=No League
