Not included in the squad of eighteen yesterday, many Fulham supporters would have been puzzled by the exclusion of Bobby Zamora from Martin Jol`s plans.
Had Bobby picked up an unfortunate injury was one line of enquiry.
Well apparently not! It transpires that Martin Jol had decided that Fulham didn`t need Bobby in their plans for the trip to Swansea.
The man in charge had decreed that our highly rated centre-forward was surplus to requirements and that Sa and Frei were far better options.
Or as Martin put it when pressed on the matter,
“Bobby is probably not the best substitute to have on the bench. I made the decision to play Johnson because he words hard in training.”
“The last couple of weeks I played with Mousa Dembele and Bobby and I thought it was time to play Johnson again.”
“I don`t have a problem with any player; the only thing I want is player sot give 100 per cent to this club. Then there is no problem.”
“I make decisions for the club and I told Bobby I would not take him to Swansea.”
“But I still feel he wants to play for this club.”
he may well do but with aspirations of going to the Euro 2012 finals, with England, don`t be surprised if there is a showdown soon with Bobby possibly moving on in the January transfer window.
