You can criticise Xhaka all you want, but there is no denying.
He is one of the finest "pointers" to have ever graced English football.
He can point, not only forward and backward, but also sideways in both directions, he reminds me in many ways of Santi Carzola, in that, you couldn't tell if Santi was left or right footed, likewise with Xhaka, you cant tell if he's left or right handed, he points just as well with both hands.
I have to say we've missed his pointing recently and that has to be a concern as the season progresses.
