Not content with bossing the midfield he showed how it’s done in defence tonight too. What a player.

If McGinn hadn't dived in, the first goal wouldn't have happened as Kamara was about to mop up. I expect the second wouldn't either as their backs wouldn't have been up. Anyone notice Konsa decided to ignore his man and try to play offside instead when the runner who received the ball was from deep.

Brilliant Player.

A very good player plays good when we play not so good.

Kamara showed Konsa how it’s done. I was against the decision to put him back there with Ned sitting in the bench as a right back but Unai knows best.  Fantastic player, I know Roger’s takes the plaudits but Kamara was motm for me.

I think he's easily our best player, and I don't even think it's really close.

Emery: "We are not talking about Kamara at centre-back. Wow. Wow. Fantastic. He's playing fantastic. Maybe you can call on teams to try and sign him!" #AVFC

I said to the kids on the way home ‘if I was in charge of one of these clubs bidding all this money I’d bid £100m for Kamara’.

He’s been playing that way since he came back from injury. Absolutely sublime footballer. Already looking a shoe in for player of the season if he keeps this form up.

Great from Bouba last night. I worry that we haven't sorted a new contract for him. Get it done!

Best player at the club. By a mile. Flawless in everything he does. Keep him at all costs.

Showed what a Rolls Royce of a player he is again last night, not sure how long it will be before other clubs come sniffing but he is the one player we need to get on a fresh contract ASAP.

He's even better since the injury, which is remarkable really. He is now a leader in this team as well as our best player. To perform like that out of position is just more evidence of an elite footballer. Pay him what he wants because we will not be able to replace him with better.

So we can get more money for him you mean?  Because him signing a new contract won't stop him leaving if a bigger club comes in, as we seem to be finding out this week.

I think our move away from a high-line has really played into his strengths, that little bit more room in the middle, to move the ball and to take the right position isn't as easy when the play is so congested in the middle-third.  He's also getting a bit more time on the ball when we build from the back, so we're "seeing" him more often.  I'd be interested to know how many passes he's averaging these days compared to pre-injury where he did a great job, but it always felt like his role was to get it and give to a better passer of the ball.

The alternative is to let him leave for free, so yeah. It’s obvious you’re feeling annoyed about the bid for Watkins, I am too, but that’s not evidence of players leaving if a bigger club comes in, is it?

Yes it is what I mean, we don't want to lose our best players but the reality is once a bigger club comes sniffing with plenty of cash on offer, a decision has to be made of what's in the best interests of the club and player.
