Messageboards Beware
So, Bobby Zamora has been reading criticism levelled at him by fans on Fulham messageboards, resulting in the striker’s outburst after scoring at the weekend. He opened the scoring against Sunderland, before silencing the crowd, even pushing his own teammates away to make his point clear.
Manager Roy Hodgson said that the player had taken notice of criticism from fans on Fulham Blogs, suggesting that Zamora should stop reading such blogs. What this episode has shown, is that fans really do have an impact on players.
Were the fans wrong? Maybe, but if you’re going to stop fans talking, then you might as well just pack up and go home. This game is about opinions.
What a debut
Seamus Coleman was excellent on his debut for Everton. Top class. The youngster was making his first home appearance and he appeared completely unfazed, coming on as a substitute for Joesph Yobo, and running the show from right-back. His attacking play was a joy to behold, while he fought for everything with 100% desire and commitment. Top draw.
That’s not The Way It Works, Ibra
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has taken the unprecedented to ‘temporarily’ retire from International duty. Apparently, he is not “motivated” at the moment because there are “no important matches”, and so “it’s very difficult”. Playing for his country would be “expending energy for no reason, a sacrifice for nothing”.
Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. Maybe he should try playing at Blackpool on a wet, windy, Tuesday night.
Ushering in a New Era
It appears that Sir Alex has unearthed another gem. Darren Gibson’s recent performances for the Red Devils have indicated that Sir Alex has a readymade replacement for the ageing Paul Scholes. The master scored a scorcher against West Ham, but the apprentice matched him every step of the way with a tremendous strike to seal the victory.
The boy tackles like Keane, and shoots like Scholes. Perfect.
