    Lets face it, after the first game he's been rubbish.

    I've not seen enough about him to give him a contract to be honest.

    Another year loan? Or a very short contract like a year. I voted no.

    I like his "story" but that doesn't mean that your a good player.

    I think rubbish is a little harsh - he's been played in a position he's never been before, which I blame entirely on the manager.

    Apart from conceding the penalty, I actually thought he did quite well against Arsenal and certainly, with his pace and ability to win every header out there, was a useful addition on the pitch.

    As for offering him a contract, though, I'm going no. Apart from his pace and aerial ability, I don't see him being good enough. Those two attributes alone are not sufficient. His finishing, in particular, I think is open to question and his touch and passing are barely adequate for the Prem.

    If that's the criteria for who should or should not play for you next season you'll be lucky to scrape together a five a side team. <ok>

    This crossed my mind too and would probably say to get rid although it might be a little unfair on him, and as someone else suggested Becchio too! Can anyone tell me why we actually got him in? Was it just to offload Moro?

    I've no idea why we signed Becchio, he'll be out on loan/ sold before the end of next season, I'm positive about that. Whilst I was very glad to get rid of Morison, I have no idea what Becchio offers the team.


    Should we go down however he has scored a few down there so I then say keep him. There would be little point in getting rid of someone who's a 15 - 20 goal a season man.

    With reference to Kamara, again I can't really see any quality in his play, no nice touches, nice passing, hold the ball up, intelligent movement, the ability just isn't there.

    Admittedly I did not see the Arsenal game but I don't think Hughton will sign him.

    It's a tough one. He's a great guy and would be a miss around the group now I think.

    I think a different build of striker may be useful. Becchio and holt offer strength, RVW skill we could do with the fourth striker being in the Jackson mould. Little fast man.

    Ill reserve judgement till the end of the season. Reading is the most important thing right now

    Quite agree.

    I suppose you could argue that he is "adequate" in most of these skills, but his main attributes - pace and in the air - just simply aren't the way forward for us if we want to go to the next level.

    He doesn't look too hot: he's off the pace with the reading of the game: too many times (albeit in just a few games) where situations could have been exploited and he has just been aimless: no need to hold on to him judging on his performances do far

    I also think that he should have 'attacked' that ball put across by Snodders against Swansea. Had he scored we would have won the game, just saying ...

    To be fair to him, nobody has looked or been too hot when playing up front for us this season. That is a great shame because we will, if we stay up, have RVW next season and I assume we are not going to expect him to play a totally lone role or have to play out wide. He is supposed to be the dynasty maker.
    I do not know whether Kamara is Prem or even Championship class. We know Becchio is Championship. We now Holt is probably at the very edge of his worth to the club but probably Championship class. Jackson is Championship class.
    I think you need a minimum of three Prem class strikers if you want to have a serious chance of staying up. So probably Kamara is not good enough but I don't think the lad has been given a chance to show us if he can make it.
