FA Investigating Over Suspicious Betting Pattern during an Arsenal match

[GDeep™]

If anything you probably have sympathy for Xhaka here.

If it's true that he's personally involved it would be an outright ban, that is if they can actually prove it. I wonder if that's enough to have his contract terminated without having to pay him? It should be i would think.

What’s weird is Xhaka doesn’t need the money and I doubt he would do a favour for a mate like this, it’s too massive risky.

All I can think it’s some underworld betting/gambling thing involving darker figures.

True Detective season 4 right there

Never a dull day at Arsenal

Why would we terminate his contract and lose any transfer fee? Only the club lose in this situation.

 

[boonthegoon]

If it's xhaka, it should allow us to just terminate his contract right?

He will have a ban from fifa which will apply to any league. Doubt any club is going to pay money if that's the case

If you watch tennis you know this is normal and normally involves mob ties and pressure. It’s not just your “mate”.

If I went mental and put in my life savings on Burnley Watford getting over 20 corners, would i then be investigated?

Google Bernie Madoff. Greed doesn’t care about wealth.

Xhaka v Leeds, player comp...

...I don't break the rules, I make them!

 

[Rasmi]

I would love it if it’s xhaka. After all this man has done and disrespected the club when they finally had chance to get rid, not only did they refuse. They gave him new deal. That’s why I saw everything xhaka does the club deserve it

The ban will be for months. We aren’t losing a fee, even a small one like 5-10M.

First they’ll have to prove it.

You thinking Albanian gangs putting the squeeze on?

Probably more likely than risking his career for a mate.

Betting 65K on a yellow when your Xhaka doubles your money or something. It’s peanuts.

 

[Xln]

So Xhaka has been getting red cards for his mates.

mod edit: calm the **** down

 

[Xln]

I bet he was telling the fans to fk off to get another yellow, his german-albanian pimp friend with another doubler

Think this happened on an episode of Dream Team back in the day...a player owed the mob money, so they took over his career...poor bloke was almost forced to sign for Chelsea, I would have chosen death.

@Erlis

Did you get a cut of this money?
