✍️ OFFICIAL Granit Xhaka (Out)

[Rasmi]

Hopefully the club learnt from the past and we won't finalize the deal until the replacement is 100% done.

The other clubs will milk even more money out of us.

Yeah when they found out we got 13 million pound for him they will exploit us

Most wouldn't consider the voice in your head to be 'an exclusive source' mate. But treat yourself to delivery pizza and a couple of glasses of red wine tonight anyway

I don’t care if you don’t believe me but I’m telling the truth.
I did not believe Romano or all the rumours. I only asked this source about it in the last few hours. First time I spoke to him, but he knows about me being a big fan of Granit and he responded.

 

[CaseUteinberger]

Glad for Xhaka if he gets to leave on his own terms. Like an old gunslinger he rides of to new adventures in a different town...

@mods, with Xhaka leaving I want my old tagline back: "A-M's most handsome Scandinavian hunk!" You should never have removed it!

Atleast he left on a high with his best season behind him. He always fought for the team. For that he will always be respected

I feel for you Bergy! Hang in there! And try to see it from Xhaka's perspective. Good deal for him.

 

[BergMan]

Fans must unite and put pressure on Arsenal to stop the deal from happening. It is possible!!!

It’s not a good deal. He is going against everything he stands for. He thinks he is leaving on a high with the fans but really he is running away from a challenge if he leaves. I’m angry with him.

Also angry with Arsenal. If they were open to giving him a 4 or 5 year deal he would’ve taken it without hesitation. He wants a long deal.

Arsenal cannot give him a long deal. That is out of the question after the **** experience we had with the last 30+ players we have even 3 year deals.

Xhaka is a special player, he deserves the respect. He is not an Auba or an Özil. He will always give 100%. An exception should have been made for him. It’s not about the money he would’ve taken it on the same wages he’s on now, it’s about the long term stability.

 

[Xln]

Ngl if Xhaka leaves I want 2 superpowers in midfield or else I'll quit watching this crap

 

[BIoodBrother]

I'd hope we get more but with one year left that or 20M will be maximum.

It's two years basically with the 1yr option. He just had an outstanding season and if there wasn't a bias against him, he'd be in the team of the season. It's a shame that we aren't keeping him. I hope that Arteta has something up his sleeve. This is not good news at all, especially for 15million.

Arteta forced him to stay twice we just have to let him go this time its good opportunity to move on and upgrade

i dont think that we'll be able to. i think we'll suffer. he's so underrated. i understand that he can look like a fool sometimes but he reads and understands the game like few and his mid range passes are so fast pace and stick to the foot. if we had willock in this position, we'd struggle a lot for example. any new player will take time, esp if he's not a genius and 28+.

I think we'll struggle to find player that give you 50 games a season without getting injury but im confident if we get Rice we'd be fine.

 

[BergMan]

The thought of Xhaka leaving is dawning on me. It’s too much to process so soon. I’m feeling hopeless and in despair

we'd be much better if we had rice and xhaka. unless we plan a change of formation this role wont suit rice as much as xhaka. i cant see rice being our furthest forward midfielder,

Rice could easily work between Caicedo and Ødegaard.

but why did he prolong, then suceed and leave when CL is finally, finally there. he leaves for leverkusen who most likely wont play CL and are a much smaller team.
is that for his family? if so, respect.
