Boubacar Kamara

[LeeS]

Caveat of “targeted” and “intended” but still great news.

I wouldn’t play him in League Cup or FA Cup this season!

That’s actually not a bad idea. Pick and choose when he plays instead of playing him every week until the inevitable happens.

[eye digress]

Despite having been vindicated, you get the feeling that a slight grudge is being held against him. Yes, France have riches in most positions. But I think he should have been getting in ahead of at least one of Kante (now 35), Koné or Rabiot.

Revising my opinion of Koné, who I thought was outstanding against Morocco.

Kamara’s cause isn’t helped by his not being available over summers!

Kamara’s cause isn’t helped by his not being available most weeks!

Agreed.

[Dogtanian]

Harsh! He’s about 1 in 2… that’d be amazing if he were a striker.

Bouba will wear the No.8 shirt now Youri has retired.

[Dave]

Also, some nice videos of him running around in training yesterday which bodes well.

[Matt C]

Vacating the 44 shirt for Manzambi, possibly.

[Todd Packer]

The number 44 shirt is now available… anyone want to guess who wore it at Freiburg? 👀

[Dogtanian]

Who was our 8 when Kamara arrived?

[cdbearsfan]

Morgan Sanson.

[N'ZMAV]

With big daddy Donk at 6

Morgan Sanson.

Christ, it really has been a while since we had a decent 8, isn't it?
