Arsenal fans angry about Paul Pogba following Granit Xhaka wonder strike

Pick that one out.

Arsenal may have thrashed Hull City 4-1 on Saturday, with Alexis Sanchez bagging himself a welcome brace, but there was no question about which strike was the pick of the bunch at the KCOM Stadium. Granit Xhaka notched Arsenal's fourth, deep into injury time, and it was one hell of a strike. Picking up the ball from Mohamed Elneny about 50 yards away from goal, he advanced into space before unleashing an unstoppable effort. It had everything - power, swazz, placement - the lot. Poor Eldin Jakupovic in Hull's goal didn't stand a chance. Arsenal's away contingent were ecstatic at both the audacity and execution of such a special goal. Those on social media were also full of praise for their new favourite Xhaka - but it was mixed with a resentment towards Manchester United's Paul Pogba. Or rather the media's attitude towards him. The general sentiment was and is that had Pogba scored a similar goal, all areas of the media would go into an absolute frenzy of exaggerated praise, whereas because it was Xhaka for Arsenal, not enough people cared. https://twitter.com/Dunmoreorless/status/777210387934638081 https://twitter.com/FootyArsenaI/status/777212703395946496 https://twitter.com/andywright711/status/777275252212637696 https://twitter.com/OldBaldGooner/status/777186991318315008 https://twitter.com/kapoorvidur/status/777418070729994245 https://twitter.com/HitenPatel13/status/777270081625751552 https://twitter.com/officialdaddymo/status/777191236046319616 https://twitter.com/CalArsenal/status/777175789150277632 There was particular criticism directed towards Match Of The Day, for what was perceived as a snub. Many felt that the pundits in the studio did not highlight the goal in the way that they should have. After receiving a whole throng of complaints from annoyed Arsenal supporters, Gary Lineker responded with this observation... https://twitter.com/GaryLineker/status/777282705717358592
