Mikel Arteta has thanked fans for their support of Kai Havertz after the struggling Arsenal star scored his first goal for the club against Bournemouth.<\/p>\n

Arsenal news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n

Arsenal cruised to a 4-0 win at the Vitality on Saturday, with Bukayo Saka opening the scoring before Martin Odegaard slotted home from the penalty spot just before half-time.<\/p>\n

The away side were awarded another penalty shortly after the break, but instead of Saka or Odegaard stepping up as per usual, the Gunners captain handed the ball to Havertz to score for the first time in red and white.<\/p>\n

Ben White completed the rout with a header from a free-kick in injury time.<\/p>\n

Havertz made the shock move to the Emirates from rivals Chelsea over the summer in a \u00a365million deal, with Mikel Arteta very keen on the German International who endured a mixed spell at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

Fans and pundits have been divided over the 24-year-old, especially after he failed to score or assist in his first nine appearances for his new club.<\/p>\n

After scoring, Havertz\u2019s teammates rushed to celebrate with him, with the away end chanting a new song for the midfielder to the tune of Shakira\u2019s Waka Waka, and featuring the lyric: \u2018Sixty million down the drain?, Kai Havertz scores again!\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m really happy for the win, but I\u2019m even happier to be part of a team that shows the human qualities that they do today,\u2019 Arteta said in his post-match press conference.<\/p>\n

\u2018To show that empathy to a player that has some question marks they warmed me even more today. I\u2019m so happy with our supporters the way they made him feel.<\/p>\n

\u2018If there\u2019s a player who deserves that it\u2019s him. Probably it will change everything. If he had any question marks about how we feel about him they are out.\u2019<\/p>\n

In even better news for Arsenal, they have closed the gap to Manchester City in the table to just one point after the Citizens suffered a shock 2-1 loss at Wolves.<\/p>\n

Up next, the Gunners travel to Lens in the Champions League on Tuesday before they host City in a huge clash next Sunday.<\/p>\n
