Zamora Not In the Squad Tomorrow?

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

Hopefully he's been looking after himself on the fitness front. May not be fully 'match fit' - I can never quite understand what that means - but possibly fit enough for to play for 15 mins at the end.

"Match fit" doesn't necessarily relate solely to his fitness level, he could be physically fit to run around a pitch for 15 minutes but playing championship football is more than simply running around (take CMS for example).

I still think he'll be on the bench. He won't have the same fitness levels as the others but I'd be disappointed if he isn't fit enough to potentially come on for the last 15 minutes or so

If Zamora can put in even a 10th of a shift CMS can put in then he's worth a place on the bench. With his quality, he can set up or get a goal in the last few mins.

T shirt?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Didn't Hughton confirm he is in the squad tomorrow, which pretty much finishes this thread.

T shirt?

It was in response to a tweet showing BZ's match shirt for 'tomorrow' being printed - just to give the tweet some context. Looks like he's gonna be in the squad...

Missed that one...! Where when etc? Fans forum I assume...!?

Yes. Think so, unless someone reporting it was 'joking'

Sounded like he wasn't in the squad to me from what i heard from Hughton

''too soon'' ...but i thought i heard a ''maybe'' before it

 

[spence]

It was right at the end of the forum. Need to hear it again.

 

[Wilko]

He said it MIGHT be too soon for Bobby tomorrow (in question to being in the starting 11) so I am still holding out for a place on the bench. I would bring him on for last 15 and then play him Vs Southend.

 

[Sheebo]

But [MENTION=267]TSB[/MENTION] said on the fans forum thread he was fed in the squad? Can't seem to work out what's fact and fiction here

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Why would we risk a player who has had well-documented injury problems over the past few seasons by playing him before he's fully fit?

True but he should still be a sub. Him warming up would give the whole stadium a lift and in turn the players on the pitch.

Exactly this and if Hughton can't see that benefit he is a bigger idiot than we think he is.

 

[Perkino]

I expect him to be on the bench and if we have a 2 goal lead with 20 minutes remaining then he'll come on for a run out

 

[Hugo Rune]

He must be on the bench and he must get at least a few minutes. He is the best!

Is that the royal "we"
