    He was brilliant last season, selling him was a huge mistake. Happy he’s still smashing it

      He wanted to leave and we respected that, what good is keeping a player against their will going to do?

    With the next game he will also become Switzerland‘s most capped player for the national team. Despite his (for some people) controversial ways, he is truly one of the greatest swiss footballplayers.

    I remember when our fans used to call him a sideways merchant who didn’t have the legs to play in midfield

    Trying to replace him with Havertz is one of the most idiotic things in Arteta’s tenure.

    Please come back

    I know he wanted to go back to Germany and we rightfully respected that, but at the time I thought it was a big mistake to sell him and keep Partey. Should have been the other way around and that decision looks worse now.

      It’s not really a decision if he wanted to go. Xhaka had earned more than enough goodwill for the club to respect his wishes.

        It’s kind of interesting that he had his best season and felt he wanted to go.

        It must have then been the best decision for both parties.
