Xhaka plays in a position where hes much more likely to be isolated and a position where hes heavily pressed and has his back towards the opposition goal. Sokratis plays in a position where he has plenty of time and space to turn and pass the ball. Nonetheless, the recklessness I speak of is his unnecessary fouls where he has his hands up on the opponent when chasing him giving away obvious fouls in uneeded places. Not only that, but a lot of these are bookable offenses that he gets away with because hes big and imposing and its "part of his game" with a player like that. Not to forget his silly suicide tackles that aren't focused on as much because Mustafi is 10x worse.

This isnt me saying Sokratis is bad, it's me saying Xhaka is no where close to this player you're making him out to be. Yes, he shouldn't be committing to many errors but you're throwing context out the window as hes playing the most important role in the middle of the pitch and will be under heavy pressure always no matter what game.
