Really well done today. Quality turn around from this guy.
Agenda merchants won’t bump this thread.
Another masterful intelligent performance in a big game by Granit Xhaka.
He had a horrendous first 10-15 minutes though. Otherwise good and as so often helped elevate the team when we got stronger. Xhaka-Ceballos continues to be a very decent midfield even if it's clear that it needs one more piece to really shine.
Great game today from xhaka, done well passing and defending. Always keep the team ticking.
The corner flag play was also a good one.
I think they both did equally well.Xhaka and Ceballos won the battle of the DLP’s against Kovacic and Jorginho.

Yes it's not world class, bit it's a great performance. I don't get why people are still mad with this level of display.
British fans just like their brainless box to box shxt. They just don't like deep lying playmakers.I don't think people are mad at him anymore, or to be more precise I haven't seen the vitrol that was aimed at him for a long while.
Instead its some thought that you can chug *randomXMidfielder* into the middle and he'd immediatly do all of Xhaka's work + more somehow.

Did you not see the match thread comments after we conceded a goal? “**** Xhaka” posts on repeat in an instant for no valid reason. This group of fans have Xhaka as a fall guy because they enjoy hating on him.
