Why does T.Campbell keep getting selected

He was dropped, he came on and scored an important goal and you still dig him out - patheticCAFC_boi said:
Spoiler: it won’t.Callumcafc said:Really happy for him. Hope that sparks a run now against some less capable opponents.You’ll always get a couple gimmes with that much game time.Need to see a proper finish at some point.8 -
Yes he scored but Leaburn was right behind him as well .. but took advantage of Birmingham not really settling after our sub and failed to pick him up …. But what else did he do nothing … sub bench is the best place for him …. We looked far better with two strikers up top… still not sure why Apter is behind Campbell and Fullah he is by far the best winger we have at the club9

I have not read this thread because of the title.
TC is one of my favourite players, and I am glad he is ours.
He didn’t cost a couple of million pounds either.7 -
That’s odd. I’ve been to plenty of games this season and am proud to be part of TC’s fan club. Thinking about it, it’s maybe less obvious without commentary how often he is being asked by NJ to swap positions / do different jobs?AFKABartram said:

I reckon Jones interview yesterday explained Campbells roles and his work rate bloody well.
People do not recognize how much he does in defending by getting back to cover for regular defenders out of place, so some times he runs out of steam.7 -
Good shout this. Feel like frustration builds very quickly in the stadium when TC makes a mistake.AFKABartram said:

That would be 2 goals in a season..5 -

I agree with this - when he ducked the challenge for the second Middlesbrough goal, I just watched him instead of the play and he just gave up and didn’t even make an effort to sprint back. Even if futile it gives off a better impression.AFKABartram said:

It’s just my take, not saying it’s right. But TC displays very negative body language. Head down, never looks happy, never acknowledges supporters and just doesn’t look like he enjoys playing. When he’s not having a good game, you can see a change in his demeanour and approach. I think these things are a lot more noticeable in person than via online viewing.Laddick01 said:

I'm pleased for him that he scored, and to be fair, it came after him being dropped to the bench, which is what most people were calling for. He obviously needs a rest to recuperate mentally and physically.
I'm not sure if the stuff about him not wanting to celebrate with the fans is true or not, but he needs to take the rough with the smooth. He might get criticised sometimes, but his song is also the one that's sung more than any other player.
And it doesn't matter who you are, if you back out of a 50/50 like that at The Valley, you will get pelters.3 -

Rak-Sakyi was exactly the same. Maybe they are reserved characters! He never likes fist pumping infront of the covered end like others do. TC is just a shy lad, but he shouldn’t be punished for that! He is still plying his trade and people quickly forget this is his first season in championship football.AFKABartram said:

We have a habit of slating players and then moving on to have great careers. We all need to take a step back and remember we are just a punter paying the money to go and watch professionals who have all worked vitally hard to get to where they are! It boils my piss!9 -
Interesting reading brum fans saying we have “two promising young players” in fullah and TC, the lad’s only 22, still plenty of time to learn and develop into a quality championship player. Delighted he got a goal, I hope he goes on a goal glut now to shut people up (including your humble narrator).4

Thing is he’s shattered. NJ said yesterday he’s running 12k in some games. Those are elite PL midfielder numbers. NJ also said he does 1km of sprinting per game. That’s going to have an effect on his legs the more he playsCAFC_boi said:

I agree - and maybe he just needs a break (which he hasn’t had) but surely the calls him for him to be rested are justified?fenaddick said:

Personally, I prefer Olaofe to TC - he usually has an impact, although Olaofe’s finishing against Middlesbrough was also terrible tbf.cafc_se7 said:

Better from the bench clearly based on the two times he's done it.
Think 'super sub' should be his position going forwards.0 -

Of course. My point is we react to him not tracking without knowing the facts (fine, we’re allowed to do that!) but actually those stats add context, especially when Carey is covering the space behind himCAFC_boi said:

TC needs a decent overlapping wing-back to support him, and then we’ll start to see his confidence grow. Everyone must want him to do well because, in my opinion, he’s our only real bright spark at the moment and is carrying virtually all of our goal threat on his shoulders, which I think is starting to tell. The same can probably be said for Leaburn. Our passing from midfield to attack has to improve, and it would also help if there were other goal threats in the team. Carey has been good so far, but he isn’t likely to unlock defences with his passing.6

I'm surprised you say that. At the games you see how much running he does, which isn't so obvious on TV.AFKABartram said:

I think tc is terrific, he just needs runners around him to enable/unlock his full potential, one on one he can beat anyone. Might take us til next season to get there in this league

I know needs must, but with all the running and travelling round the globe he does, the guy needs a break!fenaddick said:

Don’t think you can read anything into the celebration. He’s clearly a shy lad but also it was an equaliser not a winner, so he went back to his own half probably thinking there’s one back let’s get another0

They are, I’m a big fan but also think he needs a break.CAFC_boi said:

Calls that he’s not good enough and never will be for this level were not imo, along with over-analysing every mistake he makes and greeting it with loud criticism. Which is what some have been saying/doing5 -
One goal isn’t going to change the mind of doubters and not should it, until he does so much as a forward to the benefit of the team that nobody can complain, then people have the right to criticise or blow smoke up his arse in equal measure, all that matters is if it is a benefit to the team. I’ve slagged him off( not personally because he’s a lovely lad) on performance and I’ve sung his name with pride when he deserves it, it’s very frustrating to read the people on hear that won’t have him doing anything wrong in front of they’re own eyes, yet I guess they will argue the other way.who new football is about opinions.0

I think in the 2nd half against Boro and yesterday TC got more stuck in than he used to.
I imagine it's something they're encouraging him to do more of but it doesn't come naturally and he needs (a bit of) patience as he works on adjusting his style and mindset to include more of it in his game.

Leaburn showed what he does in those positions earlier.RonnieMoore said:Yes he scored but Leaburn was right behind him as well .. but took advantage of Birmingham not really settling after our sub and failed to pick him up ….
