Sol Campbell has asked Arsenal fans to stop romanticizing their own players by ignoring the actual output on the pitch.
The former England international also wants to see 10 names getting omitted from the club squad next season. While Shkodran Mustafi is everyone’s choice to be the first one to leave, Campbell sees 9 other players who should follow in the shoes of the German.
“I think there’s probably 10 players who aren’t good enough,” Campbell said (via Mirror). “I’m not just blaming [Shkodran] Mustafi for what happened at Crystal Palace because I think it was a team thing, although he made a mistake. There are 10 players who Arsenal really need to look at getting out of the club.”
“I think the fans need to not fall for the name on the back of the shirt,” the former Gunners centre-back continued. “What the fans have to do is see what the players do on the pitch and can they fight and have the desire for the club.
“It may not be a world-class name but we got showed up by Wolves and not many people knew who these Wolves players were at the start of the season.”
Arsenal are fifth in the Premier League standings with just 2 games left to play this season. Their hopes of a Champions League qualification through the league might very well be over after the three consecutive defeats to Crystal Palace, Wolves and Leicester City.
