Koumas operates as a midfield playmaker, creating goals for others as well as scoring many himself.

He was selected in both the 2005-06 and 2006-07 Football League Championship team of the season.

He has earned a reputation as a dead-ball specialist and a scorer of spectacular goals.

Koumas made his professional debut for Tranmere Rovers in the 1998-99 season.
