Arsenal’s loss to Manchester City on Wednesday left a bitter taste for the Gunners, who suffered a 4-1 defeat at the Etihad Stadium. One particular incident that caught the attention of onlookers was Granit Xhaka’s reaction towards his teammate, Aaron Ramsdale.
According to a report from Football London , Xhaka was livid with Ramsdale after he gave away possession with a long ball forward, venting his frustration at the goalkeeper during the match.
Xhaka was seen visibly upset, and his reaction towards Ramsdale is said to have been a result of the goalkeeper’s failure to keep the ball on the ground.
Ramsdale, who has been integral to Arsenal’s wonderful season so far, was criticised by Xhaka for his decision-making on the pitch. The incident highlights the pressure that Arsenal players are currently under, as they struggle to make an impact in the Premier League this season.
Despite the early promise shown by Arsenal, the loss to Manchester City has dealt a blow to their title aspirations. Xhaka’s reaction towards Ramsdale may be seen as a sign of the team’s frustrations, as they struggle to find form and consistency in a highly competitive league.
