Kai Havertz has suffered another injury while away on international duty with Germany and is now returning to Arsenal for further assessment. But what does the Kai Havertz injury mean for Mikel Arteta, Viktor Gyökeres and Arsenal's season?

In today's video, we discuss the latest Kai Havertz injury news and whether Arsenal should really be considering a change in their style of play. After such an incredible Premier League run before the Brighton defeat — as well as reaching the Champions League final — is there really a need for Mikel Arteta to rip things up?

We also look at the huge opportunity this could give Viktor Gyökeres. The Arsenal striker may not have hit top form yet, but with Havertz potentially unavailable, Arsenal may now need to play Gyökeres into form. Could an in-form Martin Ødegaard, fresh from registering two assists for Norway, help unlock Gyökeres? And what does Viktor need to improve with his own movement to become Arsenal's first-choice striker?

There's also the question of Kai Havertz's injury record. Is it too early to describe him as injury-prone, or are his recent spells on the sidelines beginning to become a genuine concern for Arsenal?

PLUS, we discuss the latest Arsenal transfer news surrounding Julián Álvarez following reports about Barcelona's interest, as well as the links between Arsenal and Bournemouth youngster Junior Kroupi.
