Granit "The Hacker" Xhaka | Likes his reds

My favorite Arsenal player. I mean most of their players don't give a shit, but he has taken it to a whole new level.
 
Also, I think he stood there trying to make the break easier for himself.

Of course the opportunity to break never came...

Mourinho would have him benched for a month :lol:
 
I think he's normally a decent player but that's unbelievable.
Couldnt disagree more. Every time i've seen him hes done something stupid. Either positionally or not tracking runners.

His passing is also extremely overrated. When hes got the freedom of the pitch he can ping a ball but put him under any sort of pressure and he folds.
 
How can a defensive midfielder just stand and watch Cleverley in that position and not even move towards him? In the last minute whilst the game is still anyones as well. Inexcusable. Players make mistakes but that's not a mistake, that's just not doing your job.

In fairness, there was a headwind
 
So bad :lol:, can’t believe I wanted United to sign him. Did look some played for Mönchengladbach
 
What an astonishing decline since his days in Germany. He's honestly utter garbage.
 
He's been awful today, really haven't seen anything in him whenever I've seen him to suggest he's a player for a top 6 club
 
I just cannot believe how much a player can regress, and his biggest problem is he is playing as if he is forced to play. Like this is a wrong profession, and he is just working here for sake of it.
Regress? He was never great in the first place.
 
I think a lot of it is tactical. Whilst probably being the best two central midfielders in the Arsenal squad on individual ability, the pairing is probably the least compatible stylistically.

Still not very good though.
 
They're lucky they 'only' paid £30m for the guy, as that is routinely what Premier League teams are paying nowadays.

He's shite
 
Remember I was well pissed when Arsenal signed him. Just goes to show how someone performing in another league isn't a guarantee for the PL.
 
Let Jordan Ibe walk right past him today, not a care in the world. Shocking for a professional footballer.
