Trauma? What traumatic experiences did Xhaka face at his time at Arsenal? The Crystal Palace incident? It was embarrassing and humiliating for everyone involved but trauma inducing? If it were that traumatic he would have left but he knew that it doesn’t get any better than Arsenal. I mean what were his options? Newcastle and Hertha Berlin.I’ve never been a fan of Xhaka I can’t even lie. Makes me smile a bit seeing him get buried, I’ve been slagged off in here typing out my two pence about him in the past.
He’s not as bad as people would have you believe though, I have to admit.
This version of Xhaka we now see is the consequence of all the mistakes and trauma he’s experienced during his time at the club. Plays it super safe now and is allergic to forward passing. Reckon it’s his last season here anyways. To be fair to him, his job before was passing it to Özil or something, he doesn’t have that anymore.
Come on man. Xhaka didn’t suffer from any traumatic injuries like Ramsey or Eduardo. He didn’t see his teammates get shot at while on international duty like Adebayor. He didn’t have the media try and damage his character like Sterling? What trauma did he face? If anything, Xhaka’s one of the luckiest people in Arsenal. He’s given chance after chance despite failing, he gets a new contract for no real reason, he gets the captaincy because the club had no other choices, and he has a cult following that will defend his every game no matter how poor he was.
Nothing traumatic happened to Xhaka, he has simply regressed as a footballer and many are now seeing him for what he is. I am not taking this out on you cos I know you’re opinions are fair but it does annoy me how Xhaka gets a pity party.
