'He's made me eat humble pie': Kevin Campbell wanted one Arsenal player gone, admits wrong

When asked about Granit Xhaka's future at Arsenal, Kevin Campbell indicated that his opinion of the midfielder has shifted significantly over the course of the season. He now supports Xhaka remaining with the Gunners beyond the current campaign and potentially signing a new contract.

"You know my feelings on this. I wanted him gone, I did," he told Highbury Squad. “He’s made me eat humble pie so many times this season. He’s been phenomenal this season."

"And do you know what, he does have some issues in certain games at the top of the pitch because he’s not used to it. He’s learning a new skill at 30 years old. So sometimes it’s not always going to go his way. But do you know what, we’ve needed Granit Xhaka so much this season."
