There can only be a handful of Arsenal players who I have thought should have been sold or relieved of their duties - Xhaka was one. I have seen this player sent off, dragged off and booed off - in some cases all in one game. At one stage I was convinced he would walk out of the football club of his own volition. Yet, for all his misgivings, the former captain remains faithful to the Gunners and the Arsenal fans are to him. His performance against Leicester was impressive and while his goal was fortunate I cannot fault his determination or his passion.
