It has been a turbulent year for Granit Xhaka at Arsenal. In a disappointing season, in which the Gunners failed to qualify for European competition for the first time in 26 years, the central midfielder sometimes found himself shunted out to play at left-back.
Xhaka, 28, has endured regular criticism since joining Arsenal in 2016 and is now being linked with a move to Roma. His performances have often been questioned and he has struggled to shake off a reputation for diving into challenges - a part of his game that earned him 13 yellow cards and two reds in his first season with the club.
