Xhaka is s.hit mate.
Quote:BootyDaddy
Xhaka does zero defensively (or offensively for that matter), so I struggle to see how Guendouzi can be worse.
Guendouzi is also young and has plenty of time to improve. Whereas Xhaka has been completely useless in every aspect of the game since the day he arrived.

This is simply not true. Xhaka has already scored and assisted a goal in the league this season. Contributed more than Ozil, Ramsey and Guendouzi as things stand. So he obviously does something offensively. Try to be more objective.
He's currently rated as our best performer this season in them Skysports power rankings, so statistically hes not useless.
I think both players should be rotated along with Ramsey depending on the game. Torreira has to play.

Don't get me wrong, I think Xhaka is terrible and personally responsible for many of the goals we concede. But Guendouzi is even worse positionally, lazy at tracking back, can't tackle and takes too many risks on the ball at inappropriate times in inappropriate areas.
Point taken about him being young and he definitely has potentail, especially with his vision, and hopefully he will improve in all aspects, but right now he can't be our starting centre midfielder.

Yes I see your point, 4 PL goals in his 3 seasons so far is certainly grounds to get excited about his offensive contribution.
I don't know or care what 'skysports power rankings' are either. They can't be anything worthwhile anyway as I trust my own eyes, so assume they mean wander around in midfield aimlessly and do nothing at either end of the pitch.
The guy is s.hit.

Well maybe don't use words like 'Whereas Xhaka has been completely useless in every aspect of the game since the day he arrived.'if you don't want to be called out on it. There's no need for hyperbole.
Quote:Jack_is_the_truth
He still plays Özil out of position
Still starts Ramsey ahead of Mhki
Still plays Auba out wide instead of finding a easy to play 2 up top
Overloads our fullbacks with defensive responsibility, as they get no help from Özil and Auba
Very rigid tactically
The creativity is almost none existent
He got rid of jack and talked about building around a player he doesn’t want anymore
He’s useless but we are winning so all these things don’t matter until they do

Have you noticed how West Ham have become astronomically better since Wilshere got injured?
