Kamada will be an asset

Everyone has their opinions regarding players, everyone is entitled to that.
Where Kamada, is concerned the biggest reason to question one’s own opinion is the fact that the man that has organised, certainly the best team we have had in the Premier league ,obviously believes in Kamada, as a first class player. Football has always had this situation. If OG see,s it, it must be there. Personally I think he, Kamada, was slow to adapt but he is now showing all the signs of being a decent player.

Forgive me for having my own opinion but I really dislike such religious devotion. Glasner is 50 years old, in the prime of his career and is at a lower-middle EPL club. He comes across as a great guy, albeit stubborn, and is clearly a good coach but is no way proven to be elite and the likes of Ireola and Frank are more often mentioned as moving to a bigger club
I would definitely say that the run at the end of last season was the best, sustained play by a Palace team but for several reasons it just has not happened this year and even after the run culminating in the Brighton victory we were outsiders for a European place. This may be the best team we have had in the EPL in absolute terms but relatively it does not stand out.
As far as managers are concerned, Pulis did as much with a far weaker pool of players and Pardew , for all his faults, did give us the most hope in 2015/16 when we won five of the first eight league games - the others being single goal defeats to City, Spurs and Arsenal - and reached the FA Cup final
Feel free to throw this back in my face if we lift the trophy

If we win the trophy then all is forgiven, not just over minor Palace difference of opinions, but all (most) people

I may even un 'ignore' Grumpy Mort for a bit

The present team being the best we have had is just my opinion. Others have done well for us that’s not disputed . I don’t only believe OG would not keep playing a dud player, but neither would any of those that went before him.
If Kamada is a dud then it’s taken three top European clubs to find that out.
Lazio, wanted to keep him, and he still plays for his country. Kamada, might not have the fans in his pocket but he must give what OG asks for because OG has options. As I said for me he is a good technical player that has taken a while to settle to the way we play the game but he is definitely settling now in MHO.
 
Somewhere within all these different opinions of Kamada lays the truth.

Much was made of his signing due to the pedigree of the player. And the fact that he had played under Glasner before and '' knew the system ''. So that set a certain level of expectation.

Nine months later, we are seeing an improvement in the player and that's good news. But he set his own bar pretty low given performances to date. Even only a couple of weeks ago at City, his error led to the goal that got them back in the game.

I don't think he's ever likely to be a player that takes a game by the scruff of the neck. A lot of his work will either go unnoticed or be applauded by those seeing it through a different lens.

In my opinion then, I think he needs to just concentrate on his strengths. He can't tackle and doesn't look comfortable taking players on. So, occupy the areas on the pitch per OG's instructions and keep the ball moving. He does the former well albeit in safe mode without risking possession.

I hope he has a blinder today in whatever part he plays !
 
Fair play to him. Thought him and Wharton were too lightweight to start than. But he was excellent.

Wharton was the best player on the pitch.

Works against Villa, who don’t seem to handle our system!
 
He was flipping superb today! Him & Wharton in the centre did SO well together. Quite remarkable but fair play to him. Well done DK, brilliant game, so tidy and that skill and run in the closing stages was just phenomenal.
