Arsenal midfielder, Granit Xhaka has come out to say that fans who send him online abuse are not real supporters. He recently revealed that he would actually love to say some of the things they say on the internet to his face.

According to him, he would appreciate it if these abusers do not involve his family in their shenanigans because they are not the ones on the football pitch.
He added that real supporters of Arsenal football club will back the team when they win, lose or draw.
His words, “If I showed others what they write, I think I have to close my social media, everyone has to close social media.”
“I say that before and I will say that now and in the future as well, it is only about me. I am the guy who is on the pitch. It is not my wife, it is not my little one, it is not my family.”
“So if you want to criticise someone, no problem to criticise me like a person, like a player. But don’t make the other people involved because they have nothing to do with my job.”
“They are not supporters of my club. I do not see them as supporters of my club – to support the club they have to be here if we lose, we draw or we win.”
“Of course, you can criticise and say what you want about football – but not about the person, not about the family. I think this is two pairs of shoes, about the footballer and the person.”
“But if one guy is a ticket holder at the club and speaks like this about his own players I don’t think he needs respect from our side or other people.”
