BlueRayDick:Bros your point is not valid. Midfielders covering FBs have been employed for long with many successful teams including current top4 in EPL. You have not taken your time to watch, I know you are smart. Kindly refer to Football Made Simple on YouTube for tactical analysis. Kante covers Alonso (remember Martinelli goal Vs Chelsea?) Fenandihno drops into CB to a 3man defence as both FBs for City push up. Henderson or Fabinho covers Trent Alexander Arnold or Robertson (as the case may be) for Liverpool as Saah and Mane tuck into forward position. This tactic is widely used and known to be effective. It adds more bodies in attack when a team is with the ball. So Arteta's use of Xhaka as an auxiliary LB is not out of place and only shows how tactically flexible the player is. Xhaka even drops to CB when we are defending and LB when we are attacking. There is a reason why Xhaka has always been on the first team since his U17 days in Nigeria for Switzerland to his time at FC Basel, to Borrusia Mgb , and Arsenal all under Wenger, Emery and now Arteta. He may not be the super star midfield maestro, but he does bring value to his team. You can wish for Partey but don't underestimate Xhaka. Cc Fkhalifa 1 Like |

Spy360: Everybody knows Xhaka starting at Arsenal has always been about his physical presence and Long ball ability(Which David Luiz presently looks better at it than him). I don't know if we do watch the same matches, but equating Xhaka's role in that Auxilary left back position to what a short Kante does to cover for a tall Alonso when a corner is being taken in an opposition is just not it. You are talking about Fernandinho , when last did he even start as a DM? Nobody is saying Xhaka role as an auxilary LB is out of place considering the limited choice of options at his disposal, however it will be unwise if Arteta continues to use him in that role after the close of the next transfer window instead of buying a decent DM who can play his primary role well enough. Xhaka thus far under Arteta is not well known for what he does in his primary role (DM), rather for what he plays in an auxilary LB role. My concern is when we have our experienced LB's fit and there is no need for the Auxillary LB experiment anymore, trusting Xhaka with that DM role he hasn't really excelled at will be our bane. So I will prefer he is sold, get a proper DM that does his job well enough and let's have peace of mind in that position instead of always praying he doesn't slide an opposition player in front of the box each time he goes into a tackle. |

BlueRayDick:What I get from you is that despite the role Xhaka plays for us, he isn't as good as expected. I see you don't like Xhaka and it is quite understood. Everyone has their player preferences including the managers. One man's meat they say is anothers poison. |

Spy360:Covering for defenders are basics most deep midfielders do, but the main job as seen with Alex Song,Axel Witsel,T.partey et Al is what is lacking.. Too one dimensional, one footed,no techniques, styles, sharpness and surprise element.. Yes, he's been OKAY, he may look better in orther leagues, but to move up with the top best in England, We need to upgrade to a better deep midfielder. |

Fkhalifa: God Bless you! Playing DM in Bundesliga is totally different from playing DM in a physical and faster league like EPL. We shouldn't be caught still managing Xhaka even after one full transfer window. I mean look at Manure utd, they knew they are not going anywhere if they keep managing Matic and the rest in the middle and they opted for Bruno, see how they are quickly transiting defence to attack ASAP |
