EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing the raw emotion of Granit Xhaka following Arsenal's narrow 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United in the Premier League 2021-22 season. The Swiss international midfielder, wearing the Arsenal number 34 jersey, is seen with a pained expression on his face, hands on hips, as he takes in the disappointment of yet another loss for his team. The background of the image shows the empty seats of St. James Park, adding to the sense of isolation and frustration felt by Xhaka and his teammates. Despite a strong start to the season, Arsenal's form had waned in the final months, with inconsistent performances and injuries taking their toll. This result against Newcastle, who were fighting for survival in the league, was a bitter pill to swallow for the Gunners and their fans. Xhaka, who had joined Arsenal from Borussia Monchengladbach in 2016, had been a key player for the team in recent seasons, but his form and influence had been questioned in the 2021-22 campaign. The defeat at St. James Park was a low point for both him and the team, and the look on his face in this photo speaks volumes about the disappointment and frustration felt by all involved. Despite the setback, Arsenal would have one last chance to secure European football for the following season, with a place in the Europa League up for grabs in the final matchday of the campaign. It would be a test of character and resilience for the team, and Xhaka would be determined to help them finish the season on a high note.
