Kevin Campbell was very much excited with Tomiyasu’s performance in his first two games.

The Japanese defender joined the Gunners in the summer window and helped the side keep clean sheets in games against Norwich City and Burnley.

The full-back was phenomenal in the two games that he has played and his performances has caught the eye of Arsenal legend Kevin Campbell.

“It fills me with joy to see it [the video of Tomiyasu],” he told Football Insider.

“When have we ever seen Arsenal do that in the last few years? We haven’t.

“A couple of weeks ago there were holes in Arsenal’s squad and right-back was one of the holes they had. Tomiyasu has come in and made such a big difference.

“He can defend and he is decent enough going forward. He isn’t fantastic going forward but he doesn’t have to be because he does his job as a right-back. It’s so important as a defender to do that.

“At the weekend he was up against a good player in Dwight McNeil and he dealt with him superbly.

“I think Tomiyasu was a quite brilliant signing because you can see that he wants to play for the badge. It is only his second game and he is just going to get better and fitter.”
