Many City fans, myself included, got carried away by the combination of pace, power, skill and finishing ability that was Kenneth Zohore’s goal on Tuesday, but, just over a decade ago, we had a teenager who was routinely showing these qualities. He may not have quite been able to establish himself in the top flight, but Cameron Jerome has always been a very good Championship striker and he continued his good recent goalscoring record against us with a header from a free kick to win the game in the fortieth minute.
From the moment he got the better of Sol Bamba in the first minute, Jerome was a big influence on the game, but he has never really been appreciated by many City fans who were not slow to criticise him after his Ayatollah aimed at the Canton End following his goal.*
