Zamora

[Norman Potting]

Yeah must admit Upson and Greer are shocking this season !

That Bridge was useless as well.

 

[¡Cereal Killer!]

Zamora past it, Joe Cole is plausible but not likely, lampard will never happen, even if we were in premier league next season, he would easily get into most other established premier league teams. Either that or he will move to the US.

My take on this is that we are looking to get in one player of quality, who is passed his best, but who would play at home in a very good stadium and who would be very much appreciated. It would also be a stepping stone for them into 'coaching'. Surely these guys have enough money to earn very modestly for a year or two. Mind you 20k a week is £1million a year. I imagine TB paying at least that for the right guy. We just need to find him.

BZ won't go into coaching. He doesn't even really like football.

Zamora? - no, not again. He was great, but I don't think he's the player he was now. Sorry - but I like to keep my legends as legends. Lampard? - no; he'll go overseas (US or Japan or somewhere) for big bucks, or simply hang up his boots. Joe Cole would be interesting though - his career has stalled somewhat, and he may still feel that he has a point to make, and something to offer. Unless he has a serious gambling problem or something, he won't really need the money, and if he really wants to go on playing competitive football for a year or two longer - for the sake of playing football - then Brighton and Cole could be a fine match. If Upson can do it.......................

Michael Own has just been seen leaving the Grand Hotel with Bloom and Garcia.

Those three would be great, yes they are oldies but these guys know how to make the ball do the work. As long as we have other younger legs around them we'd have more chance of breaking down defences....IMO

Agreed, 32, 33, and 34 isn't old these days.

Especially Bobby as he's hardly played every game and worn himself out has he?

They would all be amazing signings, and would help fill the stadium too.

Our FFP budget might explode though

Just a thought......

All those of you that are saying they are too old, would you turn down Gerrard, Eto'o, Cole, Terry, Kolo Toure etc.........

No, No, Yes, Yes, No.

 

[kevtherev]

The people saying they are to old, are the same people that said that about Upson.

 

[Jbanged]

The Mirror is reporting that we are in talks to bring Bobby back next season, along with their previous reports that we are interested in Joe Cole and Frank Lampard, we could soon have the oldest squad in the league, (if you believe anything in the Mirror) 8

Lampard, now we have the penalty option taken care of

Frankly just at the moment I'd take Pele!

I remember in 1964 (I sadly confess) we signed English International Bobby Smith ... we were in the friggin FOURTH DIV then.
Nobody believed that was going to happen either. Just be hopeful anyway.

 

[El Turi]

If we could get Zamora fit and enjoying his football again, he'd be a great signing. It would also create a massive buzz around the club so I hope it is true.

 

[B.W.]

I'd take all 3.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Everyone duck!

Would help to sell a lot of Nike shirts!

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Did Zamora say he disliked football in the permanent sense or did he make a rash statement when not having a great time of it?

All he said was (in a radio interview) that when he got home to his family, he just switched off from football.

 

[Mackenzie]

Zamora would be alright, we're used to injured players.

 

[grummitts gloves]

If Becks has bought an American franchise, I'll be amazed if Lampard doesn't fancy a bit of that.
