Angry & Miserable
Neither player is good enough. Get rid.
What are the amazing characteristics that Xhaka has which makes him a better footballer than Torreira? And which of those characteristics justify his brainfarts which lead to goals and caused us lose crucial points?Xhaka outperforms Torreira almost every game. Every manager prefers Xhaka to Torreira.
Not that Xhaka himself is great but he is a better footballer than Torreira in so many aspects.
Torreira is bang average, limited passer, average technique, small and weak for his role, all rolled with a loser mentality. You can find players like him in the championship whenever you want, except they’ll likely be more physically imposing.
Well tbf Messi talks of playing for Newell old boys one day.He is talking about playing for Boca one day now...ffs Lucas
Torreira is so overrated it’s ridiculous, relatively new players get cut so much slack.
Xhaka is better than Torreira is every way apart from tackling, it doesn’t take a genius to see why he was dropped by both Emery and Arteta. Terrible attitude and loser mentality too, his diving and crying is embarrassing.

More intelligent? And still holds record for most errors leading to goal? Not sure how an intelligent player's brain can fart so frequently.More intelligent, more disciplined positionally. Better passer. More physically strong. Taller, able to win aerial duets (extremely important when our center backs aren't good aerially outside of maybe Mustafi). More consistent and doesn't disappear in matches.
In addition to tackling, he’s also better in the “not repeatedly losing the ball in your own half and presenting opponents with a chance to score” category TBF.

We are not saying Torreira is a great player either. But given a choice between Torreira and Xhaka, I would gladly go far Torreira. At least Torreira gets dispossessed when he is moving forward and tries to attack. Xhaka gets dispossessed in our own half and then complaints like a ***** about other players.Torreira gets dispossessed like he’s a kid and spends all game falling on the floor. I don’t see why you guys want to die on this hill both Torreira and Xhaka are poor it’s why we’re 9th.

I would be happier to discuss here about Modric, Kroos or Busquets, but unfortunately, that's all we have. We could spice things up by adding Elneny and Douzi, can you imagine the quality of the discussion then?Torreira gets dispossessed like he’s a kid and spends all game falling on the floor.

Elneny is coming to add bodies to our midfield. Help us push for cl placeImagine that? This must be the worst midfield I can remember in Arsenal history.
Recovering from injury yeh.How come he never featured against Charlton. Is he injured? Torreira played really well after Arteta took over. I saw a side of him which I never thought he had; showing up for the ball and having the highest number of passes in some games. Higher than Xhaka. Why did he get dropped in favour of Ceballos?
So his contract expires in 3 years. I think we need to gauge if this guy is commited to England and either sell him or renew his contract at some stage, I'm fed up of letting people run their deals under 2 years.
