Shoo ffs, shoo Joel shoo.
I'd feel ashamed for doing what the likes of Cambell and Jenkinson are doing. I know there is a contract signed and the club has to respect it, but ffs have some respect for the club that made you a millionaire in the first place.At this point he's just being rude, like staying at a dinner party till midnight when the hosts clearly want to go to bed. If it was me I'd leave purely out of embarrassment.
We've been saying this stuff for years . he had an impressive WC, we got great bids, we didnt sell. He had a decent season for us, couldn't shift him... and multiple loans where he has been rubbish.May as well chuck him in the cup games in the hope he impresses to earn a January move.

We have seen some good moments from Campbell but sadly Wenger and his injury record has stopped him progressing. Who knows if he gets fit like has been mentioned already he could be a key player for Europa games. He certainly looks decent when playing in Europe. I think that competition and top 4 in Emerys priority. So if Campbell does stay it may not be the worst especially if (as expected) we dont bring in a top wide player this window.Joel missed almost the entire season with injury. Blew out his knee against Canada last summer, then had serious ankle problems. A lot of clubs that otherwise would like to have him aren't going to make an investment until they see that he's back to health and form. It's really unfair to blame him for the current situation. He's a good guy and has always played hard when given the chance.

Not paying a few mils extra to get Ronaldo, going for Walcott instead of Bale, not getting Zlatan because of stupid trial offering - those were big mistakes. Not selling Joel Campell I would call a small misjudgement.One of the biggest mistakes of Wengers tenure was not selling this guy post world cup. He was and remains rubbish whilst we could have fetched a decent fee and him remaining created horrible atmosphere that season "get out while you can Joel!"
You're correct.Not paying a few mils extra to get Ronaldo, going for Walcott instead of Bale, not getting Zlatan because of stupid trial offering - those were big mistakes. Not selling Joel Campell I would call a small misjudgement.
You're correct.
The difference in those situations and the Campbell one were down to money, judgement and a poor choice of words. We were also riding a high and those decisions could easily be over looked.
The Campbell situation was different. The environment was different and I feel it was one of the few times Wenger gave into fan pressure as opposed to his own judgement. So not one of his biggest mistakes but potentially the worst decision to cave to fans demands
May as well chuck him in the cup games in the hope he impresses to earn a January move.
Di Marzio didn't mention the fee I think it'll be between 3-4M eurosWonder what the fee is, like 500K?
