HDM says that now we've missed out on FC because of the wages, we will now go after DJ Campbell but are worried incase he prefers to stay in the South-East
They can't play him this season so can't see it somehow.
They can't loan him out to another Club, they can buy him permanently though and he can play.
If Campbell comes to the KC with Cardiff he'll get a round of applause from me. Helped us get promoted but never said he'd be coming back. It's not like he agreed a contract and then reneged on it, he's never been our player and is free to go where he wants.
I beg to differ, the main thing for him at that age was to get himself in the shop window, and with us he'd have been first name on the sheet playing in his favoured way. At sunlan he was competing with a lot of players and was mainly played out of position on the right wing.
The fact that he didn't have a good spell at Sunderland shows he chose the wrong option footballing wise IMO, and with duffman in charge I'm sure we'd have offered him just as much.
He did well at Sunderland for 13 months, playing 36 times in his first season. Granted he wasn't exactly prolific. It was only when he got injured that he lost his place.
4 goals in 31 appearances is certainly not prolific.
Not unless you're a defensive midfielder.
He's better suited to cup games - 3 goals in 5 games in that season. You have to take into account he didn't have Windass to work with!
