I wish he'd grow his hair again and stop looking like such a meatball...

Congrats though, I guess.

Great achievement, let’s hope he makes the hundred while at Villa.
The heartbeat along with mings of this team.

Four goals from outside the box in two and a tiny bit seasons in Europe, more than anyone else over the same time period.

Apparently

I thought I had posted it in here but with the way the site was last night, it either timed out or I posted it in another thread.

Anyway he is our highest European goal scorer after Shaw and Withe and is the first Villa player to score in three different European competitions.

Has there been a better player to wear our #7 in the last 45 years ?

How far behind Shaw & Withe is he ?

Not far. I believe it is 10 for Withe and 9 for Shaw with him now on 7. TBF Watkins is on 6 and Rogers on 4 so either could in theory also beat the record this season if they booked their ideas up.

He's been pound for pound the best Villa player so far this century for me.

Agree with that
Weirdly I also think he’s our most underrated player

I was thinking this. He's been my favourite player by some distance almost since he arrived and, although I know he's popular, I think people are so used to him getting on with the job that his true worth is sometimes overlooked. He's so ace that, if he were a domesticated animal, he'd be a cat.

No, Kamara is the cool cat. John would be yampy but lovable spaniel.

If that's what you really think just save the words and just call him a c**t.
personally I think he's more of a German Shepherd; great around kids, a proper hard working dog, intelligent and no scared to get stuck in and protects those around him. Super loyal too. Not like a bloody cat!
