And people said the fans were wrong for booing him.

Those boos were the catalyst for him leaving, without them he doesn't react and get stripped of the captaincy.

Our fans forget how powerful they are. We can do the same thing with emery and remove him

I have no issue with fans making their feelings about the manager clear. That's limited to match day stuff, since managers aren't expected to have social media obligations where the worst harassment occurs.

Hounding out individual players however is wrong. A player doesn't get to choose whether he plays or not. There are instances of players who refused to be subbed on or refused to warm up. Those players should and have been sacked because they are going against the team's shared interest.

That's very different from what Xhaka was doing. He wasn't intentionally f***ing up, he was just having another meh game.

Just because some good came out of it doesn't mean they weren't wrong.

His reaction was the issue. He went Balotelli. Now he has told Emery he is not going to be available for Leicester. Gone in January for mabe 14M.

I'd agree with saying it's wrong if he just ran off. But he made a f***ing show out of it, stalling time like he's a f***ing Palace player. f**k him.
Wembley:
Community Shield @6-8-'23 = 1*-1 Manchester City

Emirates Stadium:
First game @10-9-'11 = 1 - 0 Swansea
Most memorable game @24-2-'22 = 2 - 1 Wolves
Last game @09-03-'24 = 2 - 1 Brentford
Next game @03-04-'24 = VS Luton [ Block 121 - Seat 847 ]

This guy is an arrogant prick. He’s a shit footballer who thinks he’s made it. He’s done this before. He openly shouted fck off to Wenger when he rebuked him for shooting wildly in over time, he pissed off the opposition fans in an international game with some stupid political gesture. He needs to be sent back to Switzerland to hoof around in the backwaters of Europe. I have zero sympathy for him.

I don't understand, Xhaka was jeered initially not booed. His dumb ass behaviour turned the jeers into boos.

So Aniym, your entire argument is focused on him getting booed, well he shouldn't have been a dipshit then should he!!!

For every action, there is a reaction.

The man retracted his faux apology and decided he is a social media martyr, a victim of bullying. It's his new 'cause". What a tough guy.

Stop paying him if he’s said he doesn’t want to play.
