Granit Xhaka has been one of Arsenal's standout players during the first three months of the new season.
In fact, statistically speaking, the Switzerland international is very much on course to register his best return in terms of goals and assists in the Premier League since the 2017/2018 campaign, having already surpassed his total from the last three seasons after just eight games.
Taking only the Premier League into account, in each of the 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22 seasons, Xhaka only managed to find the back of the net for Arsenal once, and he weighed in with two assists. It did not him long to equal that record this season, and he was one goal contribution away from breaking his own record following the 3-0 win over Bournemouth.
