Pablo Zabaleta

[warpig]

Gutted he's going, end of era and a real changing of the guard. Will we ever see players like him and Vinnie play with so much passion for the club. I doubt it.

Nice one zabba and thanks for the memories.

BIG shout to the club for doing the send off properly

for all the cringeworthy shite they normally come out with, the tributes to Zaba were perfect

We will never see the likes of this man again, an absolute warrior.

It's been an honour, Pablo.
Once a blue, always a blue

If he gets on the pitch at Watford the club will have to give him a new framed shirt

Nice. But what's that rangefinder camera on the shelf with the brown trim?

you wanna go brown trim?

Two wankers on talkshite ****y and the rag slagging it off and laughing at Jackie cos she said she cried

How can they poke fun at it like it was some cringe fest the little cretins? It was classy and genuine. He's been a warrior who gave his all and was the peoples champion... they've not even tried to understand it by the sounds of it.

I never listen to talkshite, did they slag off the Spurs soap opera over moving to a ground a few yards away?

Adios amigo. All the best you deserve it. I think a lot of my respect and admiration for zab boils down to him playing how I like to think I'd play for city if I was good enough. Total commitment. He plays like a fan and I can't give him a higher compliment than that.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Awesome send off for the man. My eyes leaked for some reason a few times during his speech.

Clubs always need people like Zabba. We can sign who we want, but superstars alone don't win things. We need the above average guys who are willing to push themselves to the limit to prove to themselves that they can cut it at the highest level.

Hungry players win things. Superstars only stay at clubs if they are winning things. It's the Zabbas of this world that make teams great.

Gutted he's going, but time waits for no man.

Love you Zab.

Lots of ****s and rags on the MOTM thread so far...

 

[cleavers]

Any young player at City (those on the pitch tonight, and those in the academy) who saw that tonight can surely only be inspired to be like Zab, because if they are, that is what you will get back, whoever we loan him too, take care of him please.
