Nordi Mukiele

People can’t genuinely believe nordi is a better footballer than xhaka like.

It just simply isn’t true

He’s brilliant like but xhaka is far and away our best player

The AFCOn thing is a red herring imo
Diarra was unfit and unavailable for many weeks/games before
Sadiki and Reinildo were big misses and TBF quite a few clubs had to make do with that sort of loss
Our biggest miss was and is Xhaka and as a matter of urgency the coaching and owners need to get their thinking caps on to organise a plan B for more inevitable absences given his age

Xhaka is best and most influential player at the club, by a country mile

I think we have at least half a dozen influential players who are missed when absent. Xhaka of course, Mukiele, Le Fee, Reinildo, Roefs and Brobbey with Ballard and Alderete not far behind. Rhere's a lot of talented players in that first team squad.

In terms of leadership qualities perhaps but not that much difference between them playing wise, both are brilliant, as is Le Fee.

Xhaka is light years ahead mate (imo)

I think nordi is brilliant like don’t get me wrong but xhaka is far and away our best player.

As a technical footballer, no. Different positions though and different skill sets, so I think you can say they are both players of a similar level in their position.

I mean it’s a great problem to have they’re both absolutely tremendous

I’m probably a little bit starry eyed when it comes to granit like 😂

Just hope we can keep hold of both of them in the summer
 
To be fair they are both exceptional footballers who bring different things to the party - Granit for leadership, level headedness, organisation, skill and footballing nous; Nordi superb defending, brilliant going forward, creator of goals, skill and footballing ability.

Who is better? I wouldn't like to say, as 'just' footballers they are on a par.

Who do we miss most? Granit without any doubt - we desperately need his leadership and organisational abilities, let alone his footballing talent.

In my view, in 63 or so years of being a fan, Granit is the best player and leader we have ever had.

At almost 40 I got a kit with Xhaka on the back this season. Maybe Nordi next season 😂

Don't worry, you're not the only one. I was tempted and I'm a similar age 😂

Think it's difficult to compare two players of different positions. But let's be honest Nordi hasn't been nominated for a ballon d'or yet as far as I'm aware though.
