Idriss Carlos Kameni

The first time I ever saw Carlos Kameni play was in the 2000 Sydney olympics. Cameroon won the gold metal, beating Spain and Brazil (with 9 men) in the process. And he wasn't a spectator, he made instrumental saves throughout the tournament.

The performance heralded him as a future superstar. He was swooped up by Juventus and was part of there youth squad for a few years but he basically fell off the map.

But I remembered those saves, that poise for such a pressure filled situation. Carlos, I never forgot about you and thats why, when I saw you picked up by Espanyol this summer, I thought that you would begin to break out, and you have. Espanyol have had a superb season so far very close to the top of the league (3rd at this moment) and some of the credit is deserved for the man between the posts.
