Left the field of play without prior agreement of the match official.

It was probably more the pissing than the fetching of the ball that got him a red.

Introducing a phenomenal proper striker to a team of brilliant footballers who make astonishing numbers of chances and often failed to finish them was going to go one of two ways. So far it looks like it's going the 'well, the rest of you may as well pack up and go home' way.

He could easily be the first striker to score 40+ goals in a Premier League season, that would be a massive achievement.

He doesnt need to even pass or run much just do what he does best, be in the right place at the right time the rest if the team will find him and feed him.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

If he stays a City he’ll eventually beat Shearers record.

I do wonder though - whether he’d be as good as he is now if for example he’d been signed to a Premier League at aged 5 and spent time in their youth set up/academy

His career thus far has been very much ‘stepping stones’ but importantly first team football and a gradual rise in standard.

Not necessarily a massive right but Leicester’s drubbing at Spurs means they’ve conceded 22 goals in their opening 7 games.

That’s 5 more than we conceded in our first 7 in 93z

I wonder if our 100 goals conceded In a season will ever be beaten considering we played 42 games not 38

I know what you mean, but its very specific to what Kamara said, I know he is a Boro lad but he only played a few games for them which makes it an even nicer touch.

There's definitely been talk of this - I think the masterplan is Norweigan leagues to make loads of mistakes as a youngster, Dortmund to refine and add the competitiveness of a top league with a bit of European experience, now the big boys like City and then Real Madrid for the peak of his career in the Spanish sun.
