What do we think?
As per Transfermarkt, Camp has kept a clean sheet in 22.2% of his Championship games this season. 26 goalkeepers have kept a clean sheet in a higher percentage of their league games this term, according to the website.
Additionally, 32 goalkeepers have made a higher number of saves per game than Camp has made in the Championship this term, according to WhoScored. With this in mind, it may be understandable why some Blues fans have indicated that they aren’t feeling particularly positive about Camp, even though most of these Birmingham supporters do seem to be fans of the 35-year-old.
