The Fraizer Campbell Watch

more likely it's because he's not going to be playing next match that he wasn't on the bench
 
Reading by some comments in spurs forum,they don't even care how long he is out for,as they don't rate him at all,make me wonder what chances he has at utd,not much tbh...

The mistake you're making there is taking the opinion of Spurs fans seriously.

Have you not read GlastonSpur's inane witterings on redcafe?
 
Must admit he's looked far from the finished article to me. He's still young and he could improve, but I'm not particularly confident he'll ever make it for us.
 
He played quite a bit today, did anyone see the game?

He won a pen, but supposedly it was a dive. See for yourselves. (It's certainly a convincing dive if it is.)

The Guardian's MBM:

26 mins: Pavlyuchenko ushers the ball out of play, holding off Titus Bramble. He's only protecting the ball, but the linesman gives a free-kick against him. "Ridiculous," blasts Chris Waddle. In other news, Fraizer Campbell is stripping off, so one of the Spurs strikers is presumably injured

27 mins: And it's Darren Bent, who is replaced by Campbell

29 mins: Bentley's having quite a decent game on the right – about time too as he's been rubbish of late – and from his cross Campbell almost scores with his first touch, but a defender beats him to it

52 mins: Goal! Tottenham 1 Wigan 0 Campbell is played through, the keeper comes out and the substitute dives over him. I think it's a dive, pure and simple. The keeper is booked, then goes the wrong way as Pavlyuchenko tucks home the penalty

54 mins: Chris Waddle reckons he saw "slight contact" but that Campbell "went down too easily". He collapsed quicker than a sloppy soufflé. Wigan will feel unhappy, and I'm on their side

56 mins: Pavlyuchenko crosses, Campbell's header and it looks for all the world to be heading at some pace into the far corner but Kingston flings out an arm and diverts the ball wide. Very fine save, that one, and the best moment of the match, for me
 
i watched the game. He didnt really do very much apart from some good running off the ball. Definite penalty, but to me he seems to be a very pace and power type of player and nothing too special. Good enough for anyone outside the top 4. I may be wrong in time, but i get more excited about welbeck than campbell.
 
no it wasnt ..
look at campbell's left foot at 00:45
keeper gets a good hand on his shoe .. more than enough to trip anyone
 
The Goalkeeper clearly makes contact with his left foot. No dive.
 
I watched the 2nd half of the game yesterday and he played pretty well. Almost scored from the header and gave few great passes to Pavlyuchenko.

Himself and Pavlyuchenko work far better as a partnership than Bent and Pvlyuchenko in my opinion
 
We should recall him if possible.

I reckon he'd get more if not the same amount of opportunities for us as he gets for Spurs, especially if they sign another striker.
 
Rumours of an £8 million raid for Manchester United's on-loan striker Fraizer Campbell are circulating at the KC Stadium.

he has played for us this season hasnt he

he cant play for 3 teams in a season..
 
true, and I reckon he is probably worth more than that
 
Maybe time to recall him, and offer him to another club.

Especially now with Keane being linked to Spurs again...
 
Turns out Campbell still has hope of playing time at Tottenham.. Turns out that both Defoe & Keane are cup-tied.. & we already knew Pavlychecko was cup-tied.. so this is great news as that only leaves only 1 other striker i.e Darren Bent...

Tottenham's January signing Pascal Chimbonda will start against Shakhtar Donetsk in Thursday's first leg of the Uefa Cup last-32 at RSK Olimpiyskyi.

Vedran Corluka is cup-tied and Ledley King and Jamie O'Hara are returning from injury so will not travel.

Darren Bent will start in attack as strikers Jermain Defoe, Robbie Keane and Roman Pavlyuchenko are cup-tied.

Carlo Cudicini, Jonathan Woodgate, Wilson Palacios, Aaron Lennon and Luka Modric did not travel to Donetsk with Tottenham, while the Londoners are expected to name youngsters Dean Parrett and John Bostock as substitutes.

By the looks of it Campbell should be starting.. No Modric, Lennon, O'Hara, Palacios, and their 3 strikers Defoe, Keane & Pavlyuchenko.. So it would be hard for them to even play a 4-5-1!
 
Their three best strikers are all cup-tied in the highest profile trophy they have a chance of winning this season.

Spurs.

We should be celebrating.. Our on loan and practically their 5th choice striker will be most likely to play a major role in the European run however long it lasts..

Why? If we play with a lone striker up front tonight it will be Bent. I'd expect Campbell to start if we play 4-4-2, but not otherwise.

See I am no Spurs expert/fan so why don't you tell me what you think Harry will put out tonight? are you insinuating that you guys can play a 4-5-1 with the players you have fit that have traveled? If so kindly show me how..
 
Do you have enough midfielders to play 4-5-1? I think that is what hes getting at.
