I'm in my late 50's and I'd still fancy my chances of marking him out of a game.

I don’t understand how he had glandular fever one week and is playing football the next.
My experience of glandular fever is that the effects last months.

He touched the ball a grand total of 8 times, 4 attempted passes only 2 completed. Not good enough. What exactly is he supposed to do if he doesn't see the ball? This direct football isn't going to suit him is it,he needs ball to feet.

Said to my lad after 20 mins,blimey didn't realise Campbell was playing,but that's not the point,evryone knew Delap was playing cos he was fouling defenders every 2 minutes,I know who I want playing out of the 2.

He might be a good finisher, but the bloke is a complete passenger for 95% of the game.
Never seen a player have so many excuses made for him either.

I think it is unfair to call out Campbell today, as he wasn't playing...........oops sorry, apparently he started, just didn't actually see him moving on the pitch.

Campbell has been both good, although against a hopeless Huddersfield and a SheffU team playing central midfielders at right back, mediocre and awful, as he was today.
I like Campbell, and think he could be a skillful and pacy goalscorer. But he doesn't seem to want it enough. Today he should have been on the end of Clarkes cross in the first half, but he was 3 yards off bacuse he didn't take the run.

And what would that strength be you talk about🤔 He's a natural goalscorer man,come on,who do you want the chances falling to? He was. His natural goalscoring instinct used to make him worth having on the pitch even when not in the game. This season his touch has deserted him. Has he scored yet. There have been plenty of opportunities which the pre injury Campbell would have sunk. You can tell his confidence is gone by the number of times he passes when he has a sight on goal and how his shots are all central rather than in the corners.

Seems the majority of posters on here think a player returning from a serious career threatening injury who then goes down with a not insignificant viral illness should somehow be the saviour of our season.
