Arsene Wenger has faith in attacker Joel Campbell

Arsene Wenger praises Joel Campbell after the striker scored his first goal for the club in today's 3-0 win against Swansea City.

Arsene Wenger has praised striker Joel Campbell after he scored his first Arsenal goal in today's 3-0 win over Swansea City.

Costa Rican Campbell impressed in the 2014 World Cup but has had to wait for his chance under Wenger at Arsenal.

"Joel Campbell took his goal really well and he is still a young player who had to wait for his chance," Wenger told BBC Sport.

"He's adapted to Europe, been in a few leagues and come back and I like his team spirit and work-rate. To show he can be on the end of things as well gives him a chance."

Campbell had been given a chance by Wenger after injuries to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Theo Walcott depleted Arsenal's squad.
