Whilst I may well be getting more emotional in my older age, I just watched Zab on YouTube. Some of you may have seen the clip, it's the one where blues are reading poetry about him, he is hiding behind a curtain, and then mid poetry he comes out to surprise the poets.
At the end of the video, a very young blue, with "mini Zaba" on the back of his shirt starts to talk about Pablo. Pablo comes out from the curtain and.....well watch the you tube clip for yourselves... as I said earlier, I may be getting emotional, but it's really hard not to watching this clip. Zab epitomises everything we want from our players. He is humble, tough skilful, committed and very very obvious as blue as we are. If you haven't seen the clip I am waffling on about, have a look.. see if you are as touched as I most certainly was
Pablo Zab. Once a blue always a blue !!
Yep, made me cry that vid.

100% city legend, never blessed with “world class” skills, was 2nd fiddle to micha richards for quite a while, what zabba had though was heart,desire,a total fuckin warrior who’d run through a brick wall for us, the complete proffesional, zabba bleeds blue

He is the man and always will be.
I'm going to use that to make the wife cry tonight if she won't go and pick up a pizza.

We've really taken to the fella. A real 100% er. Unfortunately rumours are he won't extend his contract after this season. Wants to go to Italy. Hopefully Fredericks can take over his mantle. But I'd love him around our club. Sadly not to be
If it’s any help, I can tell you that Mick Channon & Trevor Francis were both right stroppy c*nts back in the day, and are still, up to press, the only two city players to ever refuse me an autograph.
Trevor Francis told me off for running across Maine Road to his car to get his autograph.... ****

I believe that he may well end up back at City in some role. It would certainly be a very popular move with the fans if that happens. Good luck for the season except when you play you know who.....haha!!.
One of my distant relatives used to play in the city youth team, he said the nicest guys were Toure and Zabaleta and Aguero was a proper n*b lol.I've met him a few times when I worked on BA never to much trouble to chat and have a pic, sergio on the other hand not as friendly Seems like a chore to him : ) love them both though
