Better than I thought then, in fairness. If he's tackling more, he's more likely to foul more which those stats seems to bear out. I hope his interceptions and tackles lead us to retaining possession.
... apart from looking pretty comfortable with the ball and recycling it, I haven't noticed anything particularly great about Kamara to date.

Early days obviously and he probably needed a season to bed-in. A shame if he's gonna miss a lot of that now.He's been our best player by quite some distance. Has he? Midfield has been a major problem for us this season, and he's been an ever-present in it. I know McGinn has been awful but apart from looking pretty comfortable with the ball and recycling it, I haven't noticed anything particularly great about Kamara to date. He's committed too many fouls (understandable as he's getting used to the pace) but I don't think he's the enforcer type many have thought we lack.

Kamara has been excellent. I'd say our best player this season.

Luiz has not been excellent all season, most of the team have been poor so far, that is why we are towards the bottom of the tableIf we had a lot of excellent players we would be towards the top of the table, we do seem to over rate our players - most would not get a game in a team that is challenging on a regular basis for a top 6 finish.

I think it's fair to say he's looked like one of our best 2-3 players when he's played.
