    Don't think he'll be here next season , that Bristol City fan tweet sums up what I've seen from a lot of oppo fans this season that seem to rate TC a lot. Think we won't be short of interest.

    So, it's alright for fans to chant whatever they want at one of our players but it's not alright for another fan to call said fans morons. (Even though the chances are that is exactly what they are.) That smacks of double standards.

    Campbell is a very good player and did okay yesterday for someone who had allegedly missed his flight home from the internationals, so the chances are he was fairly lagged.  All attacking players miss chances. Take Andy Cole at Man Utd:  he missed shed loads of easy chances yet still ended up as that team's 4th highest all-time goal scorer.
     
    To summarise, It is definitely moronic behaviour for the cockwombles in the North Upper is hurl abuse at him and Campbell is certainly a championship quality player.

    Ibid. Simon Francis, Morgan Fox.....
     
    How can he miss his flight home but Bell didn’t 🤔
    He aimed for gate 21 with the others, but went the wrong side, ended up at gate 24 and missed the last call.

    A perfect summary of his shot during the game.

    Stop the experiment of converting him into a striker, play him as a winger

    This it seems is what most are saying. 
    Although I agree his finishing is not good enough for him to play as an out and out striker I'm still not sure his ability to go past a defender and deliver a decent cross on a regular basis is good enough at this level. 
    I think moving up to the championship from league one has proved more difficult for him than many thought. 
    If he remains a Charlton player next season I'm hoping what he has learned this season will stand him in  good stead. 
    If we sign another couple of decent creative players next season it would also stop teams from double marking him and give him more space. 
    That's what I reckon anyway.

    Tc is our main attacking outlet that is often watched by 2 defenders, yes he can be frustrating and may look not interested but the system we play doesn’t help him, I feel sorry for him as he is clearly not happy/ confident, a move away might be best for him unless we play him in a system with other attacking outlets so it’s not all on this young kids shoulders? What is he 21/22 ?
    as for the abuse, leave it out ffs, some Charlton fans frustrate me more than TC!!!

    He played as a Winger on Friday? - I was wondering if I was watching the same game as others when he came on, when there were comments of "He's not a Striker", when he was clearly hugging the area over towards the West Stand.
    He does the same a lot when he starts too, the trouble is, it tends to leave Dykes isolated in the middle

    It's pretty simple with TC for me. 

    We either need to move him on, or play a system with actual wingers to see the best out of him and let him play his game.

    I've said it hundreds of times, you put Tyreece in an attacking side, where other players can also be a threat, he will be less marked and have more freedom. 

    He is a victim of a very boring football system. I would personally like to see him stay if Jones can switch the system, if he can't, move him on which is best for both parties. 

    I do think we have reached a stage with TC where there are more people who defend him than actually moan about him, most people I know or happen to stand/sit near actually like him but accept he's frustrating.
    I think we need to return to our system of last season if we want to keep TC and get the best out of him. We need a RWB option with pace who is good 1v1, but can also defend. That’s not easy to find at all but would be transformational to the way we play, like it was last season when Small moved there 

    I think Asiimwe is exactly the type of player we need there, but next season might be too early for him in the championship. Good recruitment at RWB and box to box midfielder will decide our fate next season

    All strikers miss easy chances, the difference is they also score plenty. Without a doubt Campbell looks dangerous running at defenders, unfortunately his final ball is woeful. How often does he even force the goalie to make a save, how often does he create an opportunity for a team mate ? Chanting abuse at our own players IS moronic, it's not going to make them a better player. Blame the manager for continuously picking him &/or not bringing in an alternative who we could sub on as a replacement.

    Andy Cole is not Man Utd 4th highest all-time goal scorer. (Not that it really matters of course, he was still a great striker.)

    Manchester United All-Time Top Scorers:
    1. Wayne Rooney (253 goals)
    2. Bobby Charlton (249 goals)
    3. Denis Law (237 goals)
    4. Jack Rowley (190 goals)

    7. Ryan Giggs (168 goals)

    A side that plays with out and out wingers will be all over him and back themselves to develop the rest. Probably end up somewhere like QPR.

    Only having that 12 month option is going to affect the fee tho.

    I like TC and is one of the few players that can take on an opponent. But for his career i think he would be better off leaving. Go to a team that utilises wingers.

    Reckon there may be a bidding war from a few teams, really interesting to see if he goes what fee we get as we don’t have a reference point for the valuation of our current players

    What a terrifying list that Docherty is even close to Campbell.

    That list might actually do more harm than good for Campbells creativity. Docherty is truly pants attacking wise.

    He’s 17th in the league when compared to wingers, the best wingers create around 2 chances per game, so his stats aren’t as poor as you might think.

    TC would likely create more in a side that have more of the ball and other attacking threats who attract attention from the opposition.

    Campbell, should of course have scored, but so should several others - yet they don't get the abuse and victimisation of this lad

    There are some sad vindictive people masquerading as Charlton fans.
    If you are one of them, shame on you.

    With Campbell's shyness being a problem,  I  can't see such a timid character having the wherewithal to move away from a base he has known since the age of nine.

    Make or break next year.  He has to be given a  left wing spot and finally show some end product. Here's hoping, but not expecting.

    Stay at Charlton continue to get battered by the fanbase in a team not built to get the best out of you or move get appreciated by another fanbase get a better wage and have a chance to play your best football. Don’t think being shy is going to over power the simplicity of that decision

    Well I’d prefer we kept him myself. It’s a big ask but hopefully some can take the summer to reconsider how they behave / treat their own when at the football.

    So, it's alright for fans to chant whatever they want at one of our players but it's not alright for another fan to call said fans morons. (Even though the chances are that is exactly what they are.) That smacks of double standards.

    Campbell is a very good player and did okay yesterday for someone who had allegedly missed his flight home from the internationals, so the chances are he was fairly lagged.  All attacking players miss chances. Take Andy Cole at Man Utd:  he missed shed loads of easy chances yet still ended up as that team's 4th highest all-time goal scorer.
     
    To summarise, It is definitely moronic behaviour for the cockwombles in the North Upper is hurl abuse at him and Campbell is certainly a championship quality player.

    Ibid. Simon Francis, Morgan Fox.....
     
    All strikers miss easy chances, the difference is they also score plenty. Without a doubt Campbell looks dangerous running at defenders, unfortunately his final ball is woeful. How often does he even force the goalie to make a save, how often does he create an opportunity for a team mate ? Chanting abuse at our own players IS moronic, it's not going to make them a better player. Blame the manager for continuously picking him &/or not bringing in an alternative who we could sub on as a replacement.

    Andy Cole is not Man Utd 4th highest all-time goal scorer. (Not that it really matters of course, he was still a great striker.)

    Manchester United All-Time Top Scorers:
    1. Wayne Rooney (253 goals)
    2. Bobby Charlton (249 goals)
    3. Denis Law (237 goals)
    4. Jack Rowley (190 goals)
    5. George Best (179 goals)
    6. Dennis Viollet (173 goals)
    7. Ryan Giggs (168 goals)
    8. Mark Hughes/Paul Scholes (approx 155-161 goals)

      Andy Cole scored 121 goals
    More often than the rest of our squad 
    He's not top in any metric that backs this up
    He’s created our most chances from open play this season, so you are incorrect

    Agree absolutely about the abuse. No need and no excuses for it.
    For me it depends on how much we might be offered for him?
    If it's thought a reasonably good offer then he should go.
    Alternatively keep him on as a squad player/impact sub on what I assume to be a comparitively fairly low wage.
    I don't hate TC far from it - he is one of our own. I just don't share the optimism of many on here that he will progress much - at least with us.

    A lot of people forget that football existed before the Premier League. Hence for them Cole probably is 4th “all time “ scorer.

    He's created as many big chances this season for Charlton as Apter has, a guy frozen out completely by Jones and sent on loan in January.

    He has as less assists than Docherty, the same amount of goals as Knibbs (injured for 3 months and a bit part player before that) and has missed the most amount of big chances in the side. If he was a championship calibre player he'd be higher in every single stat.
