The present of Arsenal is darker every day and the last sample was the defeat at home (0-1) against Burnley which was in descent before the opening whistle. The visitor goal was scored by Aubameyang, on his own goal, but the key play happened minutes before, at 58 '. Granit Xhaka grabbed Ashley Westwood by the neck and the referee, at the request of the VAR, showed her the way to the changing rooms early. The Swiss midfielder is not the first time he has been in the eye of the hurricane of criticism and Thierry Henry, legend gunner, is not your greatest benefactor.
Patrice Evra, former partner of Marmoset, from his position as an analyst for Sky Sports, revealed an anecdote that speaks clearly of the opinion that the former striker has of the negative protagonist of the crash. “Now that we're talking about Xhaka, I'm going to tell you a quick story. Thierry Henry invited me to his house one day, he said, 'Patrice, we're going to watch the Arsenal game.' He turned on the television. The first image we saw. It was Xhaka leading the team, as captain. Thierry Henry turned off the television. “, the exlateral began.
Evra, surprised, asked: “What's wrong?” To which Henry replied: “I can't see my team and Xhaka is the captain of my team 'and we didn't watch the game. We started talking about a lot of things and he turned off the TV. That tells you everything the club legend thinks about him. He has once again disappointed his team, “Patrice said.
“We criticize Pépé a lot, but with Xhaka is not the first time. I remember two years ago I commented that at Arsenal they looked like babies and he jumped up and said, 'It's not the first time that Patrice Evra talks about us.' I remember that the next game, he was substituted or left the field and took off his jersey and threw it on the ground. We had enough Xhaka. I think Arsenal fans have had enough of him. “.
The moment in question Evra is talking about was a game against Sheffield United, after which he called the players “babies.” The next clash, Arsenal let go a two-goal lead and ended up drawing with Crystal Palace (2-2), while the Swiss ended up facing his own fans in what, at the time, seemed his goodbye to the team. Although he did not go out, it cost him the captaincy.
We will see the reprisals he must face after his action against Burnley. Regarding the whole gunner, the defeat was the seventh in 12 games and see how he is in fifteenth position in the Premier. A situation far from what was expected at the beginning of the season, when it was expected that Arteta's hand would begin to be noticed in his first full season as head of the team.
