Good to see Campbell is targeting 9+ goals this season (from Cawley's free email newsletter).
In my opinion, he's doing everything right at the moment, up to the point of shooting. It's going to be very exciting for us when it does click for him in front of goal this season.
I really don’t warm to him so there’s possibly some negative bias in what I see.
But I see we channel so much ball to him, he’s our key attacking outlet, yet the ratio of it turning to chances and outcomes is far too low for the amount of final third ball and positions he gets.
No one has mentioned that the excerpt was really talking about his contract:Asked if he had thought about his future longer term, Campbell said: “No. I just want to play football for Charlton.”
I know it's partly media training etc but it's still nice. Most players say "I just want to keep perfoming well/helping the team, impressing the manager" etc., it's a subtle difference but maybe a signifcant one, I hope so anyway
He might actually benefit from coming on fresh against tiring defenders rather than being the one spending 70 minutes tiring them out
Would you have fancied him to tuck that goal away on Saturday? I wouldn't have. The fact he got one assist last year and still featured in nearly all of the games tells me Jones isn't concerned one bit about his attacking tallies.
It's difficult to remember he's still only 22. His best years are yet to come. Whether that's in the form of goals and assists i'm not sure. But I'm certain he'll have plenty more savvy in a season or two, which is a frightening prospect for the opposition.

Frustrates me hugely.
He’s created our most chances this season, and compared to other championship wingers he’s not doing too badly. Especially as a lot of these wingers will get more of the ball than TC does playing for us, and more players in attacking positions to create chances for
And this is just from his first 6 games at this level, he will get better as the season goes on.
Even when he doesn’t create or score, he’s so integral to getting us up the pitch with the way he carries the ball. Even if his run only wins us a free kick or a throw in, we’ve then got possession higher up the pitch. I can see why he is picked to start every game and I don’t see that changing
It is aggravating when your forwards miss chances. We have had dozens of misfiring strikers over recent decades. The difference with Campbell is that nearly all the chances he misses he has manufactured himself. No one ever lays one on a plate for him. In fact he is rarely passed to at all, apart from Bell or Edwards up the line, which still leaves him a long way from goal.
The only chance he should have scored from this season was the header against Leicester. When I look back on that game, it was our best performance of the season but we lost because we snatched at excellent chances.
I'd love him to be a little more direct, sometimes he just does a trick or two too much. It's the same with most you haters though so hopefully that comes in time. Very good player with a high ceiling.

Glad to see someone sensible I actually agree with on TC.
I’m not sure I watch the same player as everyone else quite frankly.
if he was a new signing this season, he would be getting far more comments he’s not up to it, but academy products get extra protection.

He makes opposition defenders absolutely sh*t themselves. The fact that they're immediately on the backfoot as soon as he drives with the ball is winning us 20+ yards of territory every time he gets it and that means we're not constantly defending balls into our box with less than half the ball across 90 minutes.
There has to be something in almost every opposition fanbase coming away from our games saying he's our most dangerous player, doesn't there?
There's a place up for grabs in the front line for sure but it's not Tyreece's place that's in danger.

He may make defenders absolutely shit themselves but he doesn’t make keepers absolutely shit themselves and that is the problem.
If we’re 20 games into the season and TC hasn’t scored a Championship goal will you change your tune? Because unless he dramatically improves his finishing, that’s what’s going to happen, in my opinion.
He’s still not going to score a championship goal, which when your playing as a striker is going to massively hinder the team’s goal return.
He’s great at dribbling but has terrible composure and finishing, so it looks good with little end product.
I can’t wait to be proved wrong and have it all rubbed into me on Twitter and here but so far I’ve been right and Tanto even scores within 10 minutes.
Absolutely laughable TC has a target of 9 goals in the Championship. He couldn’t even get that in league one.
How have you been right? Whether TC scores or not isn’t the indicator of whether playing him was correct, whether the team does well is what matters. TC is starting, playing well and we are doing well. Jones is right to pick him every week, and he was right to use Tanto off the bench as one of the 3 subs that helped us win the game

I don’t care if he doesn’t score all season as long as he plays well and we keep getting good results. Why does he need to score goals? He’s created our most chances this season, and already has one assist
I think the goals will start to come for him at some point, but judging how well he’s doing purely by how many goals he’s scored is just stupid

I’ve said he won’t score a championship goal, this season, which is factually correct right now.
Don’t dispute the team is doing well but that’s mainly down to our excellent defence. Tanto scored from a position TC never would have been in.

And TC has definitely contributed to that defensive record. Without him we’d struggle to get out of our own half at times, he’s our main out ball and runs his socks off every game
Yes, he could be better in front of goal, but other than 1 header (not his strong point at all), it’s not like he’s missed any big chances that our other players would score.
He probably wouldn’t have been in the position Tanto was in to score, but Tanto wouldn’t have done a lot of the good work TC has done this season. That’s why you have different options and Jones knows when and where to use them pretty well

It’s a results based game and to get results you need end product from your forward players, he doesn’t have the quality (yet) to produce. Doesn’t matter how many times you run at people, without end product you’ll eventually find yourself out of the side for someone who can.

End product isn’t just goals though, he’s created our most chances and has an assist from a good cross.
Surely Kelman is first in line to be left out if we want to change a forward player. He’s only had 2 shots this season and contributes way less than TC does to the team

Very bold statement to say he won't score a Championship goal when he could feature in 30/40+ games this season.
I'm somewhere in the middle on him, I don't agree with some that he's our best player. He won't keep his place if the end product doesn't start coming through, but I don't agree with writing him off, he's still only 22 and last season was his first season of regular starts. As a team we're still adapting to this level, and our attacking play should improve as the season goes on.
He's not a poacher and won't score many tap ins or grab the type of goal Tanto did over his career, but pretty much every goal he's scored for the first team was a composed finish, with either foot, often involving him creating the space for himself or by running at the opposition.
I'd be surprised if he goes all season without scoring at least a few similar goals. The step up a division of course makes it harder, but it'll also create space as teams won't sit back deep in numbers like many clubs did in L1. At some point he'll take advantage of that.
I think his biggest weakness is in his head, it's his confidence and belief. He made progress last season and it might take time, but he's still got room to grow further.

Aren't assists, winning corners, and free kicks in dangerous positions also end product?
It's not TC's fault we're not making the most of all the free kicks he wins every game.

More of a concern is that TC would not have put the ball over like Bree …. that’s the problem this season is his lack of creating chances..

Going on the stats, TC is one of our best players for creating chances this season and last season.
If set pieces are included in these numbers then that only makes him look better as he never takes them.
