You say you're sure what people are watching yet you ended up basically listing the same attributes that Xhaka has. Granted, he might not be that great at some of those, but those are his attributes nonetheless. The most similar attribute that Bruno Guimaraes has is the way he sprays the ball around especially those long diagonals. There's so much of that in his compilations. Barely halfway through it, I already thought, "ya, a right footed Xhaka". If you can't see that then I'm not sure what you're watching either lol.Quite a few people saying he is like Xhaka after watching his youtube clip. Not sure what you are watching, but from the clip, he can spray the ball, find an incisive pass, play throughballs, turn on a six pence, drive into space and tackle. Not bad traits to have in the centre of the pitch. Hard to judge how fast he is, but he runs past and away from people, so he isn't slow.
I thought Arteta's answer to Kessie was interesting. 'Not at the moment', where as everyone else had a flat out no.
That's a shame seem these 3rd party ownership would make any real complicated

He seems similarly slow on the ball to me. His highlights are from the Brazilian league, remember. I'm not seeing the "turn on a six pence", really. His posture on the pitch is reminiscent of Xhaka as well, a bit too upright - similar in height also. He also is a "defensive midfielder" that isn't actually a defensive midfielder but more of a deep-lying passer who can tackle, just like Xhaka.
Most of the qualities you used to describe him can be applied to Xhaka, which becomes a self-defeating argument on your part. The attributes that stand out the most are the long-range passing and playing through balls, which is what Xhaka brings to the table.
No he is nothing like Xhaka. There is a tactical breakdown video of him showing his touch map. He is a left sided box to box.
He can dribble. Xhaka can't.
He can drive forward and run with the ball. Xhaka can't.
Two things that Xhaka literally can't do and he is happy being in the opposition half. Yet he is similar to Xhaka because he hits a few long balls and is 6 foot tall.
This guy is actually agile ffs.
If you want to get secrets out of me you torture me with tactical breakdown videos of players on youtube.
Check this one out bro. Amazing talent and he’s best friends with Guendouzi, we could get him.If you want to get secrets out of me you torture me with tactical breakdown videos of players on youtube.
He's more like Cazorla than Xhaka ffsNo he is nothing like Xhaka. There is a tactical breakdown video of him showing his touch map. He is a left sided box to box.
