Arsenal To Offer Counseling To 'Devastated' Xhaka After Confrontation With Fans by ogbiwa: 6:33am On Oct 30, 2019
Arsenal will offer counselling to captain Granit Xhaka after his angry confrontation with home fans during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace.

The Swiss midfielder was booed while he walked off the pitch, prompting him to cup his ear, walk past boss Unai Emery and storm down the tunnel.

Emery said: "He is upset, devastated and very sad.

"It is not only yesterday and today. He is feeling the supporters don't like him."

The Gunners manager said he did not want to speak about whether Xhaka may lose the captaincy.

"His behaviour was perfect in training [on Tuesday], with the group and with the club.

He knows he was wrong. He feels it inside very deeply," said Emery.

Emery said Xhaka should apologise to fans, but added: "I don't need his apology.

Because I know he is devastated, we can speak about all the situation but first it's him.

"He is now very down and we need to support him.

"My ideal future is to watch again Xhaka playing and every supporter supporting him. I don't know if I can or will achieve it but this is my ideal.

"Also for him it's the same but also I think we need now to be calm step by step so we can progress."

I don't support fans booing their own player for any reason but then again, Emery should have dropped Xhaka from the team before now. The guy is not good enough and even the fans can see it.

Also, I feel the poor handling of the Ozil situation by Emery could lead to his downfall at the club. Your highest paid player has only played twice this season and you feel you don't owe the fans an explanation as to why, and it's the fans' money that is contributing to paying the player's huge salary.

Not just xhaka, every single Arsenal fan by default needs counseling.
The stress of being one is just too much.

You are a footballer in a European league, not a Nigerian politician. If you don't perform well they will boo and insult you. Stop forming sad and devastated, just do your job. undecided undecided

Emery is an unmitigated disaster... Wenger should have been replaced with someone far better... Someone in the class of Allegri, Ancelloti, Enrique, or the current Ajax coach.

Lets pray for Arsenal they need redemption cos their glory has been taken over by CITY grin

As for Xhaka he should just bury his head in shame, a captain that cannot hold his cool is that one a leader?

Ungrateful fans, some y'all take football too serious not knowing people feelings get hurt in the process, booing him does not make any difference when match has ended already

How can anybody not boo a club captain who refuses to recognize that his club needs every minutes of the remaining match period to win a match by walking like a pregnant woman when he was substituted. Would any player try that in Juventus, Real Madrid or Barcelona. Of course not. They know that Arsenal offers players no pressure. Well the fans are changing all that now, demanding more from players. Granit Xhaka deserves to be booed and booed again. Zero passion. Zero sense of urgency. Nonsense.

He is just not good enough, fans will naturally pick on any player that doesn't play. I have lost count of Xhaka's errors that have led to a goal.

Arsenal fans in England are only good in abusing and booing players. They don't motivate or cheer to create an intimidating atmosphere for opponents.

Not last season alone boss, since he joined Arsenal he has been below average. Just a few show of brilliance once in a while, his sideways and backwards passing is second to none. The coach needs to start him from the bench.
