Arsenal will meet with captain Granit Xhaka in the next few days to discuss his angry reaction to being substituted during Sunday’s 2-2 home draw with Crystal Palace, according to Sky Sport.


Xhaka is due to return to training on Tuesday ahead of Arsenal's Carabao Cup fourth-round tie against Liverpool on Wednesday.

The Football Association will not be taking any action against Xhaka after he was seen swearing and gesturing to Arsenal fans as he was booed off.

Xhaka, who has conceded more fouls (22) than any other Premier League player this season, has been substituted in three of the nine Premier League matches he has featured in this term.

It is not known at this stage whether Arsenal are considering removing the captain's armband from Xhaka.

Asked after the game if Xhaka would remain Arsenal captain, boss Unai Emery said: "Now is not the time to talk about that."

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is now the bookies' favourite to captain Arsenal in their next Premier League match.

Xhaka is now 9/4 with Sky Bet to leave Arsenal in January despite signing a new long-term Arsenal contract in June last year.

He's not even that good..

If not for the hatred that low budget coach have for Ozil, Mesut is the most suitable player to captain Arsenal.

Ozil is not passionate enough to be a leader. Dude doesn't care if his team is losing or not. Sokratis would be a better choice.

Give him first and see how he cares about the team.it will bring the best out of him

Truth be told, Xhaka messed up.
