Football FanCast columnist Hans Schmitz feels it time that Fraizer Campbell was given his chance.

When there is a crisis at Tottenham then it is of a massive scale and the media do all they can to exasperate the situation. They go on the hunt for interviews, try and exhume dirt from the players and more often than not get ex-managers and pros to pass judgment on the football club?

I don't blame the media, hey they are after a story, but what annoys me is the lack of loyalty from ex Spurs men; who rather than try and get behind the club, choose to throw their weight behind the discontentment. It doesn't help anyone and fair play to Terry Venables for being the only person to come out in defence of the club and pinpoint plausible reasons as to why we have struggled this season.

To be honest Terry spoke a lot of sense and you do sense that our poor start had little to do with bad management, but an array of circumstances. None of them went in our favour, so rather than dwell on it and jump on the bandwagon, calling for change, let's take stock of what we have got and if we can find solutions to the problems that we have got, until replacements can be brought in.

I think Gus Poyet had a valid point the other day when he suggested that Bent and Pavlyuchenko cannot play together. At the end of the day Bent proved time after time last season that he struggles playing in a two and that was alongside players of the class of Berbatov and Keane; he is a striker that solely prospers on his own and given a choice out of the two, I would go with the Russian every time.

I'm sure that I am not the only Spurs supporter who is uncertain about the 4-5-1 formation displayed on the last two outings. I know Ramos was widely criticised for adopting the same formation on Sunday, but had he changed it and we lost, then there would have been calls as to why he changed a winning system. I personally don't think the 4-5-1 works, given our personnel and that is why Ramos must revert to a 4-4-2, but in doing so he faces the decision of who to bring in alongside the Pavlyuchenko - personally I will go for Fraizer Campbell.

I have been extremely impressed with what I have seen from Campbell so far and feel that given our current predicament that it is now time the player was given his head. He is quick, tricky and extremely mobile and unlike our other static strikers likes to make runs in and around defenders. As he proved against Krakow he can get wide where need be, take players on and I just feel his vibrancy and movement around Pavlyuchenko could be the short term solution, until we can make the necessary changes in January.
