Kamara's heroics against Manchester City last weekend could yet secure him a place in club folklore. Trailing 2-0 with 20 minutes to go, Kamara's second-half cameo inspired a sensational comeback crowned by his two goals in the remarkable 3-2 triumph at Eastlands.

The victory has given Fulham fresh hope and Kamara is relishing the next assignment of an unlikely escape act against Birmingham, who sit one place higher in 18th.

"Birmingham have a good team. It will be a big, hard game but I think we will win," he said.

"Every player hopes to start every game but if I don't start it's not a problem for me. The team and the win is the most important thing.

"If the coach wants me to start then I start, if the coach wants me to stay on the bench then I stay on the bench.

"If I start on the bench and then come on and score two goals it is also okay!"

Fulham are three points adrift of safety with two matches remaining, at home to Birmingham and then a potentially nerve-shredding finale at Portsmouth.
