Pablo Zabaleta - 2016/17 performances

[jimharri]

Had the first attempt at goal and won the pen. Holding midfielders don't generally do this.

But I agree, midfield is where he should continue.

Sagna is the vastly superior fullback.

He got forward very well, particularly in that first half. Like the Zabba of two years ago.

I thought he played very well today

I still think it is probably Zabba's last year at the club but it makes me so happy to see him play like he did today as opposed to he how he played at the lane earlier on in the season. Barely put a foot wrong, nearly scored a great goal and was a warrior as always, hope he can keep it up till the end of the season.

Absolute warrior who I love to bits. Thought it'd be another disheartening evening when Rose ruined him early on, but he rose to the occasion. Hope he can leave the club on a high.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

A whisker from scoring a cracking goal. Should've had a penalty award today. Busy as fuck and never knows when he's beaten.
My love for him, will not and shall never wane.

Good game,

Looks good as the inverted right back. This suited him nicely.
Much better than sagna going forward. I would let him get a run of games in this position.

Met the warrior last night. True gent and legend

Is there a collective noun for slapheads? ;-)

I'm just envious, nice pic.

 

[Wiirdo]

Looked like vintage Zab. His best game of the season by far.

He really does love Manchester
