Decent player and would have liked us to have taken him on a few years back but that is just crazy money for a guy with that scoring record. I suspect that one may come back to bite them on the backside big time if/when they go down.
[cite]Posted By: Scoham[/cite]Premier League Deon Burton? Strong, hold up the ball, can't score?
It's a fair point that you can't judge a forward solely on their goals. They can contribute in other ways though, like i think deon does. You would think just by being around the opposition goal for 35 games he'd get more than two goals though! £5m still seems a bit much, imo.
Didn't realise it was £5m, only saw £2m. I would agree then, £5m is far too much.
A player is worth as much as any mug team is prepared to pay.
But having said that, Zamora is a great team player, scored goals for fun at Brighton and worth finding a place in most sides.
Useless trivia time:
Zamora is good mates with Jon Fortune and Paul Konchesky. Grew up together and played in the same local youth team together before they were spotted by Pro clubs.
