I don't know about that. Limited midfielder with his uses, probably not utilized the right way by Emery. Turned into a scapegoat by fans ala Ozil.
Granit "The Hacker" Xhaka | Likes his reds

Remember when he was the "Carrick replacement".
I remember everybody in Germany being shocked about the fee Gladbach sold him for.
He's limited and has been largely underwhelming, but he's far from the worst in the modern Premiership era. "Bang average" would be a fair descriptor, which is still pretty hilarious, as Arsenal fans were hyping him up, claiming he'd be better than Pogba.
He was a joke from the moment he signed.
Remember this?

I'd say he's somewhere between "absolutely atrocious footballer" and "bang average". He's far, far from good enough to be starting a team like Arsenal. Squad player at best, which is a stretch.
I find it hilarious how he acts all billy big bollocks squaring up to players and dishing out challenges but he always ducks in cowardice when a ball gets shot in his direction. Ducked for the goal because he got scared (again).

Translates to we probably can't find a decent replacement in January so I'll do anything to keep him till he can be shipped out in the summer.
What a total tosspot
11 months on....
Tuesday Club should be good this week
His teammates must realise he's an utter liability.
Dreadful brain-dead footballer.
One of the biggest idiots in the league. Fake hard man.
Hilarious that Arteta convinced him to stay at the club when he wanted to leave
I knew that from the first couple of games I saw him playing. As for it taking so long for people to realise it... Oh well.
Replaced Wilshere as Scrappy Doo.

One of the leagues top entertainers.
Should come with a warning label.
Love him. Top quality
This guy a tool The pen in the OP is well worth a watch
The pen in the OP is well worth a watchBrainless!
He really ain’t the smartest cookie, huh? Abysmal player, would truly hate to have him at my club. Ten times worse than Fellaini
What happened to him, wasn’t he a decent prospect?
Then made him captain
Some of the posts from 2016 are tantamount to libel against Carrick.
My word.
My word.
Holy crap. The Evra anecdote. Brutal.
Injuries seemed to really hamper him. Last I heard from him he was in the Russian 2nd division.
Yes! Haven’t listened to them since Wenger. Didn’t know they’d started up again. Will be such a fun binge catching up on this season. The episode “Umai Emery Didn’t Die for This” immediately caught my eye.
It’s probably true but I think Evra, being generous, seems like a very unreliable narrator. Quite often his brain seems to catch up to his mouth as he’s talking. It also doesn’t seem like very good form to tell that story on air, funny and all as it is.
I don’t listen every week but the latest one is funny. Alan does very across the line between partisan and football mentalist at times.
This guy is a hack pure entertaining. Love every minutes.Whoever managing all the transfers and contract negotiations there are doing great jobs.
Give them all new contracts!
What a freekick. Well done Granit.
I never had, so I became an expert to open doors looked, and enter in apartments like a burglarHe was a joke from the moment he signed.

Unpopular opinion but I think Granit Xhaka is a very good player and gets criticized unfairly a lot of the times.
IMO He's definitely not as shit as he is made out to be in England. He has the ability to be class and has played very good games for Arsenal, just lacks a bit of a brain sometimes. Which has made him a liability for Arsenal in some cases.
For our national team, strangely but luckily enough, he plays consistently very well, disciplined and has never had the brainfarts he shows regulary on club level. (The penalty miss at Euro16 from page one was horrible though)
