Best of luck Bouba. What a bloody player he is - I reckon arguably one of the most underrated players around (outside of Villa).

I think he is the most under rated player in the league full stop…until injury comfortably the best 6 in the division this season

I agree, as I've said before, I think the midfield/attacking midfield of Kamara, Onana, Tielemans, McGinn and Rogers is as good as any midfield in the world right now except maybe PSG. All 5 of them fit and we were the form team in Europe and our struggles started as players from that group started getting niggles and missing games or playing within themselves.

I agree, it’s superb and the perfect foil for Emery’s brand of football.

I don't think there is a midfielder in the league that plays on the half turn as well as Kamara.

I said to my Son during the Forest game that he was the best midfielder I’d seen at Villa Park since Gordon Sidney Cowans.

Be interesting to see who Unai plays in the Bouba role when Youri returns.

Dougie or Onana?

So fucking unfortunate. Such a player. Is he back for the start of next season?
What a shame at the peak of his career he's missing the World Cup. Palhinha, you ******.

Yeah, he's easily the best I've seen. I have no memory of pre-1993. He's also the best in the league, with Rodri being an imitation of himself now. I'm just relieved he keeps coming back the same player. Touch wood it happens again.

I was devastated when that injury was extended from three weeks to eternity. I knew. You knew. We all knew.

Im utterly convinced that a) it Kamara hadn’t be injured for the Arsenal game we would of come away with a point and b) without the three of then getting injured at more of less the same time, we’d be still challenging Arsenal for the league now.
Just hope he comes back the same player and two huge injuries in two years.

Agree, and there is no higher compliment we can bestow on him. Unfortunately he seems to have the great man’s knees too!

They all started that group of wins against Arsenal / West Ham / Man Utd, back when we were going to win the league.

I was thinking it couldn't have been too many. Odd claim by the OP.

I assume you meant paul-e and not PaulWinch as he is the OP of the bunch of quotes you have used.

But paul-e isn't talking about them all starting is he? Just the time when all five was fit and available which meant we could bring in a combination of them at some point in the matches and we just were winning for days.

Of the five, only two have been playing since the win at Newcastle and we have struggled badly.
