Boubacar Kamara: The Midfield Anchor
Villa’s silent organiser, built to protect the centre and keep Emery’s structure balanced.
Kamara plays like he’s solving the match in real time. He doesn’t chase the ball, he positions himself so the ball comes to him, cutting off counters before they become sprints. In a league that lives on transitions, he’s the player who makes Villa harder to break because he senses danger early, steps into the lane, and wins it cleanly without turning the moment into chaos.
He’s also calmer in possession than people assume. Under Emery, Villa’s ability to control games often begins with Kamara receiving under pressure, turning away from the press, and playing the simple pass that allows the team to breathe. He covers for advancing full-backs, holds the middle, and gives Villa confidence to play higher because he’s always thinking about what happens when they lose it. It’s quiet excellence, and it’s essential.
