Arsenal fans believe that Shkodran Mustafi showed his support to Granit Xhaka through his celebration against Vitoria on Wednesday.
The German defender cupped his ears to supporters after finding the back of the net, the same action that Xhaka did to the home fans against Crystal Palace.
Mustafi continues to impress in the Europa League this season and his latest celebration has gone down well with these Arsenal supporters on Twitter.

Only Mustafi and the rest of the Arsenal squad will know if this was a sign of unity towards Xhaka, but that is what many believe it to be and it shows how highly the Swiss midfielder is thought of among the rest of the squad.
After removing Xhaka as the club captain, Unai Emery will surely be looking to reintroduce him into the squad sooner rather than later.
The longer he continues to watch on from the sidelines, the bigger the problem it will create between the squad and the manager.
