His tackling also isn't very strong, there are much better passers of the ball in the team and he holds onto the ball for far too long, often conceding possession as he dribbles straight into a bank of about five defenders. (justarsenal.com)
Xhaka is no cazorla, but he's a very good passer of the ball if you ask me, be it short pass or long pass, the is a mixture of both santi (passing) and le coq (aggression and tackling) not in full quantity though. (justarsenal.com)
he was excellent for us in his last season and barca made him more disciplined and a much better passer of the ball.. (justarsenal.com)
