A great half from Zamora

[Uncle Spielberg]

I thought Zamora had a great half all things considered. He came into a team low on confidence and a mess. He nearly scored 3 times, linked up the play well and held possession up.

I am confident he did more than enough to ensure his selection in the next game and did more than Heskey in all departments.

How did you rate him ?.

did the simple things well could have scored,well done that man

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

One great shot and two great headers. Class.

Apart from his excellent link-up play.

 

[essex seagull]

Great debut !are you watching Emile Heskey thats how its done.

 

[crodonilson]

Zamora was excellent and played his way into the squad for the Euro Qualifiers, got a great reception from the crowd when he came on and at the end.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

8 / 10 for me, showed confidence on the ball, was prepared to have a shot and offered reasonable pace, all in all a good display.

 

[jezzer]

He so nearly scored twice the header in inj time was brilliant did everything right heading down and in but the goalie did well and that long ranger wizzed past the goalies fingers, he passed well and held up the ball great only 1 or 2 duff passes all half brilliant, so unlucky not to get a goal, legend.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

That shot, chested down and hit first time from 25 yards and just finger tipped over. Superb.

do you mean back to goal and laying ball back out,zamora fan but thats a basic in football would love to have seen him score,never quite managed a understanding with rooney,would need more than 10 min to be fair

 

[throbinson]

Holds the ball up well, only one mistake, much better then englands so called no1 striker

 

[clippedgull]

Didn't watch it, so can't rate him.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Poor for the first ten minutes, then excellent.

7.0

 

[Bozza]

A solid 7/10 for me. He did well, but not brilliantly. It was a shame his flashing volley didn't find the top corner as that would have been a wonderful moment for him on his England debut at Wembley.

He didn't look out of place and must have done enough to ensure he's at least in the squad for the upcoming Euro qualifiers.

 

[Brighton TID]

Albeit at a lower level, Brighton fans really know what he can do. I remember one goal he scored for us when someone (probably Paul Watson) played the ball near the halfway line over Bobby's shoulder on the edge of the box and he volleyed it straight into the corner of the goal. Natural class. I need to go find a clip of this goal immediately...

Halifax.

Best goal Withdean will ever see.

 

[Simon Morgan]

7.5 for me. New poll please

I do - but good players make it look easy i.e. Zamora, Murray, (even Heskey). Zamora only lost possession a couple of times - and this was his debut. As you say - a fan.

Gave the ball away a few times which in international football can prove costly, Hungary had one counter attack which came to nothing after he gave it away. A better team may have taken advantage.
On the whole he was good, great header which produced a great save from Kiraly and the shot on the edge of the box was excellent technique and should have been a corner.
Hope he gets another chance.

Phil Jagielka 7

Theo Walcott 7
Frank Lampard 6
Gareth Barry 6
Adam Johnson 6
Wayne Rooney 6
Steven Gerrard 8

Bobby Zamora 6

THE Fulham and former West Ham hitman - on for Lampard at the break - got rid of his shaky start to hammer in a couple of decent chances.

A long-range drive whizzed over the bar and a far-post header went close.

Zamora was off and running, believing he had scored on his international debut, but when he looked around the Hungary keeper clawed his header away to safety.

The Sun must use a different scoring system to everyone else.

Gibbs 6? WTF?
