FANS joked that Pep Guardiola was disappointed after Kai Havertz’s shocking miss against his Manchester City side.
Havertz missed an absolute sitter to double Arsenal‘s lead during their Premier League clash at the Emirates.

Pep Guardiola had his head in his hands after Havertz missed the chance to put Arsenal 2-0 up against his side
Martin Odegaard punished a Man City mix-up to put Mikel Arteta’s side 1-0 up inside two minutes.
And more kamikaze defending from the Citizens saw calamity at the back just over 20 minutes later.
Stefan Ortega fed Maeteo Kovacic on the edge of his own box but Declan Rice brilliantly pressed and won the ball away from the Croatian.
A loose ball fell to Havertz in acres of space but the German international fluffed his lines after taking a touch and lining himself up.
The 25-year-old somehow rolled it wide from 15 yards, with the goal gaping and covered his face with his shirt in shame.
And fans have had a field day online.
One joked: “Even Guardiola is angry that Havertz missed the open goal!”
A second said: “Even Pep can’t believe Havertz missed that.”

AN ICONIC Mercedes Formula One car has made history by doubling the record for the most expensive Grand Prix car ever sold.
The striking silver Mercedes W196 R Stromlinienwage, chassis number 00009/54, was sold for a staggering £42.7million (€52.92m) by an unnamed buyer.

One of only four complete versions ever built, it is only one of the most famous racing cars ever made having been driven by five-time F1 champion Juan Manuel Fangio and British icon Sir Stirling Moss.
Boasting a top speed of 186mph, the remarkable machine that typifies the “Silver Arrows” nickname claimed victory on its debut in 1955 at the Buenos Aires Grand Prix, but with a cigar shaped open-wheel design.
It won five more races that season to win both the driver’s and constructors’ championship.
The car was sold by RM Sotheby’s on behalf of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) at the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, Germany.
The previous record for the most expensive grand prix car sold also belongs to a Fangio-driven Mercedes, the 1954 Mercedes W196 which sold at Goodwood, England for £19.6m ($29.6m) in 2013.
However, it pales in comparison to the most expensive sports car ever sold.
That title belongs to 300SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, which was sold in May 2022 for £113m ($140m).
The W196 R was donated to the IMS by Mercedes in 1965, and was held for almost 60 years before being auctioned off to raise funds for the museum’s restoration efforts.

IMS curator, Jason Vansickle, said: “It’s a beautiful car, it’s a very historic car, it’s just a little bit outside our scope window.
“We’ve been fortunate to be stewards of this vehicle for nearly 60 years and it has been a great piece in the museum but with this auction and the proceeds raised, it really will allow us… to be better in the future.”
Mercedes withdrew from the motorsport in 1955 following a Le Mans 24 Hours disaster which tragically killed 84 people.
They eventually returned in 2010, where they have since won eight constructors titles and seven drivers titles – six with Lewis Hamilton and one with Nico Rosberg.

WHAT better way to celebrate ripping up the Prem than getting your teeth into a meal at the Pirana?
Liverpool celebrated their nine-point title lead with a night-out at one of the trendiest restaurants in London’s West End.

w8mediaMo Salah’s beaming smile gave away the fact he’d been the two-goal hero[/caption]
And hours after that victory at high-flying Bournemouth, Arne Slot‘s men wore smiles as wide as their Prem advantage as they walked into the Mayfair eatery.
Salah, not surprisingly, had the biggest grin.
And as the Reds strolled in, most of them casually addressed, it was noticeable how relaxed they look.
Dominik Szoboszlai rocked a flowery, blue jacket, while Wataru Endo gave the midfielder a run for his money in a multi-zipped green number.
But many stars were happy in simple stuff like jeans and T-shirt at avenue that boasts “entertainment and a live DJ every night”.
Pirana boasts a “delightful fusion of Japanese and Peruvian flavours” – with prices ranging from an £8 starter of Edamame beans to £440 for Beluga Caviar.

You could also pay £40 for tuna tartare or £50 for the “Premium Sushi” dishes of lobster and wagyu beef.
And if you really don’t mind getting hammered with the bill for wagyu, then you could go for the “Australian Tomahawk”… at £495.
Some of those prices might not be down to earth.
But the togetherness in the Liverpool squad, as well as the attitude of boss Slot, appears just that.
After seeing off Bournemouth, the Dutchman said: “We had to play at the top of our abilities and needed luck to win this game.
“I meant they hit the bar or the post two times and they were constantly trying to force things.
“They had other chances as well and I don’t think we actually controlled the game.”
You could buy a salad at Pirana for £16, but you can’t put a price on Salah.
He’s now the Prem’s sixth highest scorer ever on 178 goals, albeit with Alan Shearer well clear at the top of the list on 260.
And although the future of the Egyptian is in doubt, Slot has no doubts over his value on the pitch.
He added: “The second goal was the difference between the two teams. It wasn’t an easy or a simple chance, the way Salah scores is so calm.
“It shows you how much quality he has to win a game like this. The rest of the team and him worked so hard to keep the clean sheet.”
Maybe all that concentration was why keeper Alisson appeared to have the most serious expression when he walked into the Pirana!

CHELSEA star Cole Palmer revealed the hilarious reason why he will never become a pundit.
Palmer, 22, has established himself as one of the best young players in the world ever since his £42.5million move to Stamford Bridge from Manchester City in 2023.
Chelsea star Cole Palmer insists he will never become a TV punditRexPalmer claims his answers would be too short to be a pundit and thus would rather be a scoutX @SkySportsPL
The star winger has since amassed a staggering total of 39 goals and 21 assists in 70 appearances with the West Londoners.
The England international keeps going from strength to strength as he looks to win titles and cement his legacy.
Of course, Palmer doesn’t think at all about retirement amid his young age and continuous success.
But the Chelsea star knows already that he probably doesn’t have what it takes to become a pundit.
That is because of his laconic and blunt nature that sees him avoiding long conversations with his short and cold answers.
The ex-Man City star explained that he would have very little to say compared to the likes of Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher.
Palmer told Sky Sports: “I don’t think my answers would be long enough to be a pundit.”
Instead, the versatile forward sees himself working in the background after retirement – potentially as a scout.

Palmer added: “I don’t know what I’ll do. Might be a scout.”
The Chelsea star has already registered a whopping 14 goals and six assists in 25 appearances across all competitions.
And Palmer has yet to compete in Europe with manager Enzo Maresca opting against including him in his Conference League squad for the League Phase.
