Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

I genuinely don't understand how Xhaka still plays for us.

And this isn't an overreaction to the penalty.

As bad as Mustafi has been, Xhaka has been equally as bad. The only difference is every mistake a midfielder makes leads to an attack and every mistake a defender makes leads to a shot.

If Xhaka was a CB he'd make Mustafi look like Maldini.

He makes more fouls, gets caught in possession more and gives the ball away more than anyone I've ever seen in an Arsenal shirt. Denilson was better.

I hate both him and Mustafi. I really truly hate them and I don't hate players. I'm not the kind who berates bad play like that but they make me simultaneously mad and sad.

Individual errors still haunting this team. Papa going for a header way up the field and Xhaka diving in like a lunatic. I'm done talking about Xhaka tho. If Emery wants to sink with him so be it

Lacazette is a gunman. Ice cold finish and celebration afterwards

 

[steadyrighteous]

And I had to work real hard to not type some foul shyt.

I'm still fighting it.

Lacazette coming through for us again. Won't matter if we don't fix the idiotic mistakes in defense and fix the midfield at half (please glue Xhaka to the bench), but it's certainly not over yet.

whoever runs b/r's twitter failed geography

This man Pepe might be the most skilled player in the Prem.

Man's footwork next level

 

[THEREALBRAND]

You hate the Gooners more?

 

[The Bookie]

How the fukk wasn't Xhaka booked?

Can't take emery or the owners seriously until he is sold. We are going nowhere with this dude as a key player.

 

[steadyrighteous]

If you take Sokratis and Luiz at the back + Xhaka at the base of the midfield 3, it's literally a fukkboy diamond. It's the Bermuda Triangle of mistakes.



Take of Xhaka, put Torreira or Guen at the base and bring on Ceballos or Willock.

 

[phcitywarrior]

This playing out the back gotta stop

 

[MikelArteta]

Why does emery love xhaka
Dude is usl status

 

[ThrobbingHood]

It’s miracle we’ve won two games so far with this defense and Xhaka in the middle.

Why does emery fear xhaka

FTFY.

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

This playing out the back gotta stop

It'll get a player seriously hurt one day.

Pepe causing havoc on that right side
