Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has said he feels sorry for the supporters after they fell short in the Premier League title race again.
Havertz scored the winning goal as the Gunners came from behind to defeat Everton 2-1 on the last day. But it was not enough to win the title, as Manchester City beat West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad.
“What can I say? I feel sorry for all the Arsenal fans. We gave our best but it wasn’t enough. Maybe in two or three months, we can say it was a good fight. Right now, I feel like we deserve more. It wasn’t enough in the end but we go again next year,” Havertz said.
Havertz has become the fifth player to register 20 Premier League goal involvements (13 goals, 7 assists) in his debut season with Arsenal after Thierry Henry in 1999/2000 (25), Santi Cazorla in 2012/13 (23), Lukas Podolski in 2012/13 (20) and Alexis Sanchez in 2014/15 (24).
