Arsenal’s hot headed midfielder has seen red again but this time for violent conduct as he grabbed Burnley player Ashley Westwood by the neck.
The player was originally given a yellow card for a foul but after VAR review for violent conduct the referee changed his decision and gave Granit a straight red card meaning he will be out for a total of 3 games for the suspension which will come as music to some fans and pundits ears with the player coming under heavy criticism recently.
You could see the shock in Arsenal players face as they saw their teammate grab a player by the neck and throw him to the ground, they knew right away that they would be finishing the game with just 10 men and they were right. Would you put Xhaka straight back into the team after his suspension or has this earned him some time on the bench?
