Nonsense, he had a form dip - it happens. He has been excellent against the top teams as well.

No that’d be the dip of form thing.

Obviously a great player although when we needed him at his best in some massive games towards the end of the season he didn’t turn up which was disappointing, so I can see Tim’s point. Although it wouldn’t stop me from wanting him to sign a long term contract as we’re a better team more often than not when he’s on the pitch.

How much would it cost to get a like for like replacement?

Yeah Palace was in the quote and that was a rank performance by everyone but sure there were a few others as well. PSG away but that’s probably harsh as he was up against an absolute fantastic midfield, think there were a few more. Like I said I think he’s great but I can understand Tim’s point.

I think there is a difference between not being good enough and having a tough patch when we happened to have big games. I think it’s clear that’s the case with Kamara, it’s pretty clear he’s top class.

Doubting Kamara should lead to a ban. Let's go full Gestapo. Five year deal here would be the best news of the summer

Tim only ever has a good point, in the same way a broken clock is right twice a day.

Like many people who have been injured he played well for a while after coming back only to not have the fitness to stay at that level twice a week for months with no real break.

It’s also disregarding his brilliant performances he’s had against big teams prior to the end of last season, which really just backs up Paul_e and PaulWinch Agains points and not the quite ridiculous remark Coopers Injury made saying Kamara is over hyped and can’t hack it against the best.

Kamara is a very talented player but didn't perform in our biggest games last season. Both of these can be true without being controversial.

Not really - saying he’s overhyped is a statement of permanence, which is clearly untrue. He’s exceptionally talented, but was tired/out of form at the end of last season. He has proven that in form he can compete against the best.

Debating football with coops is like arguing with someone that believes the world is flat, there’s no point because he’s got zero understanding of the game, and I mean zero

everyone is entitled to their opinions but sometimes those opinions are worthless as in Timbo’s case
