The Daily Mirror seem to have created up a story with very little factual basis today claiming that Arsenal’s Champion’s League opponents, Spanish side Villrareal are interested in signing Bobby Zamora. Such is this utter codswallope they cannot even place a price on his head.
Whilst I wanted my first written contribution to be something a little more focused upon my 22 years as a Fulham fan I have jumped up to inform and comment upon this twaddle.
Whilst Villrereal have climbed the leagues like Fulham, nestle in a beautiful part of the world like Fulham, are a little club in a vast league playing attractive football the differences end there.
You see whilst Villareal have achieved Champions League football, they also have players a class above a few of ours. I could not see Bobby getting a game there if he did not score. English fans love players for their epic work rate and whilst I understand that booing a player who misses a few easy chances seems logical, if Bobby had worst defenders to face he would score more.
So, what am I trying to say…well he could set the place on fire. That place is likely to be Craven Cottage though, because the Mirror seem to offer no reason, proof or facts to back up this story, so don’t worry about it.
