Bellerin’s advise for Xhaka on fan abuse

Hector Bellerin has a few words of advice for Granit Xhaka. The Swiss midfielder was caught ugly in the middle of  feud with the fans and it has seen him stripped of captaincy.

Now, Bellerin has a few words of advice for the central midfield player.

“That was the situation with me and it was obviously really hard for me back then,” said the former Barcelona youth player.

“It was the first time something like that had happened to me. At the time it was hard to deal with it.”

“But I said to Granit, this is like in every single other walk of life: there are ups and downs. One day you are at the top, the other day you are low. These are things we need to learn to deal with. The good thing is when these things happen to you personally, you have a whole squad that can back you, a whole squad that support you.

“That’s what happened with me back then. I was very young and I had all the older players telling me not to worry about these things. You keep your head down, you train, you do better and then everyone forgets or forgives. It’s going to be the same situation with him and I spoke to him when it happened. As I say, time heals.”
