Sunderland plot cut-price Zamora swoop

Martin O'Neill wants Bobby Zamora at Sunderland, as Fulham close in on the striker’s replacement.

O'Neill is a big admirer of the 30-year-old England international and believes he can get him for a cut-price fee

Bent> Gyan> Bendtner> Zamora.

Anyone spot a trend?

 

Their strikers get progressively worse?

 

Knowing O'Neill, it'll probably be a great signing. The man isn't an idiot.

 

Apparently you do.

I'd say Zamora's slightly better than Bendtner though!

 

Wouldn't be a bad short-term signing for them. They need a focal point to their team.

 

I'd say a soiled rag is better than Bendtner.

 

Bent > Gyan > Zamora > Bendtner.

Although Gyan never really proved his Ghana form for Sunderland, so could argue that O'Neill could get more out of Zamora than Gyan has been able to display.

 

Zamora has NEVER been more than a 1 in 3 striker. He's virtually hovered around that mark for every season of football he's played.

It's alright, but hardly prolific.

 

Who telt you that like Holyarse, Chappy?

 

And they say Mr Tiote is negative.

 

He's a decent player, im just replying to the notion that it would be a "great signing". Another Bent is what I'd class as a 'great signing' in my view.

 

Personally I'd rather not have Zammo, but I'll go with whatever Marty thinks.

 

I find it surprising. With all of the financial fair play rules I would have thought most teams would be going in for players with re-sale value.

 

This.

Plus, we're Newcastle. Has stuff to talk about got that bad?

 

Have you posted this in the right thread?

 

this.

Zamora used to be a joke, but he's come good in the last couple of seasons. Artie Ziff likes to play with a target man leading the line and he's a pretty accomplished one atm as things go. Short term at best ,but you'd be assuming that Wickham would take the mantle when Zamora's on his way out

 

Ha. I've not checked out owt else like. Just got in from a few beers to celebrate the end of the week finally.

Has the crack been **** then?

 

Sunderland he won't go ther man.

 

Not at all . But I love how you unquestionably contributed to the marmot thread.

 

I questioned whether the crack was ****.. saw the marmot thread.. googled 'marmot' and was like "nahh. it's been top notch! marmot's are sweet"
