Xhaka causing us to lose or draw games since time of memorial

Defenders are the problem

Actually, they need to start interviewing refs the way they're doing to managers and players after each game. Let us know the reasons for their shambolic decisions most times

Nobody should blame Xhaka... Leno was foolish to have passed the ball to him.

Later, some refs will say they are been threatened by fans.
What was the meaning of the yellow card he gave to Pieters then if that was no foul?

I said it few weeks ago, Xhaka will always be Xhaka, that few good performance shouldn't mask who he is, but fans are too optimistic and forget easily, which serious FC or coach retains such player costing your team that much?

Xhaka the longest serving and main man in that midfield is a sorry case, anyways, Arterta and the fans putting faith on him drserve the pains tongue

Xhaka is fully to be blamed. To me, it's 100% his fault

First he demanded for the ball(watch the replay to see he was the one who ran and called for the ball)

2nd, the trapped the ball and delayed, making Burnley's press to cover up

3rd, seeing that everywhere is covered, the best bet is to pass back to Leno to clear the ball out. Instead he wanted to use his weaker foot to pass out of pressure.

To me Leno is not at fault, it's not as if xhaka doesn't have the time and space to pass back to him. Xhaka wasn't even dispossessed immediately Leno passed him the ball, so the fault is solely xhaka and nobody else

Bro.. I'm not exonerating Xhaka but the larger part of the blame goes to Leno. Truly, Xhaka demanded for. the ball but passing to him was a foolish decision. why? Xhaka was flanked by 3 players, one was blocking the passing lane to Luiz while also giving the GK pressure, one was marking Xhaka while the other was blocking Mari passing lane. If Xhaka had attempted to pass back to Leno, it is likely Burnley would have scored or Leno would have conceded a foul.

Leno should have played the ball upfield. Xhaka is. not blameless but Leno messed up too.

He did the same against Watford last season that we drew 2-2
Leno always at fault when we concede goal when playing from back

I think you're forgetting the fact that we always mostly build from the back

This scenario isn't the first time that Leno have passed the ball to his players in such situations. Mostly, elneny or ceballos or partey have received the ball in such situation and we've safely passed it out beating the opposition press. And I've not seen anyone blaming Leno for passing as such, cos it was successful. I can remember man u game first leg, such situation like this and elneny beat the press with just 1 touch pass. Same as ceballos and partey on numerous occasions. If you watch that pass well, you will notice that just one touch pass from Xhaka to David Luiz would have beaten that press with ease. The trap and move back by xhaka towards our goalpost made the situation as tricky as it is.

The only situation I'll fault Leno is trusting xhaka. Cos if he knew xhaka would brain fart he wouldn't have trusted him

Sod09 never got over the fact that arsenal sold Martinez ( who was hell bent on either being used as first choice or leaving the club)and kept Leno.
I understand him tho; Leno and Martinez are both good keepers and any club will be lucky to have them both..

Xhaka has since apologized and acknowledged he messed up the pass to have gifted burnley the equalizer; it happens in football. We were unlucky not to have gotten a penalty but we move.

I can't blame to draw on Leno cos he didn't gift burnley the equalizer; Xhaka did. I think we need to focus on more players that fumbled like Chambers who was static in RB and made our attack from the right limited.

Lol... Sod and Martinez. 5&6.

Anyways, saka was below par today unlike him, till he moved into the Am role wen odegaard was replaced. I think the attacking limitations of chambers really affected him even tho forgot his scoring boots at home. Auba also was almost ineffective after the goal(tho he created a good chance for saka which he fluffed).

Anyways, we drew the game cos of our strikers(forwards) actually misfiring and Var stupid new rules and not wholly on xhaka foolishness. Hope we become more clinical at Europa tho, cos my mind don comot for league tey tey.

Onto Thurs things

Hopefully, I believe his rustiness or probably lack of match fitness made his attacking play limited. Hopefully, with more game time, his attacking play will improve

cheesy

Imagine a Busquet in that situation, he'll turn and still shield the ball, Even Jerry will rather fall and win a foul, but Xhaka is never the type to trust in tight situations.

Now, if Leno isn't trusting his players, then there's a big problem.

Lol... Na the only fault of Leno be that na. For trusting xhaka (his teammate grin).

Forget busquet sef, elneny have been in a harder situation with even tougher opponent who can press more than Burnley and he was always successful. These is things they've always been practicing on training ground. Even guardiola says there might be some mistakes but with time, it'll click.

You are going too far with the Busquets example! Partey beat the press and started the move that led to our goal in the same match! The problem is, Xhaka is very limited with the ball Inbetween his feet, he relies primarily on his pass.

Chambers at Rb? Maybe that's where Arteta is seeing him now.

Hmmmm
Chambers joined us as a right back from Southampton. It was Wenger who converted him first to DM and then CB.

Both for me are at fault. 50-50.

First Leno was in a better position to read the play and make a better decision than giving the ball to Xhaka who was clearly marked out.

Secondly, I am not one for giving excuses for what one does with the ball. Once a player has the ball it is entirely his responsibility what comes out of it. Xhaka had the ball and it led to a goal against. That's inexcusable and not acceptable.
