Zabaleta?!

£6.5m is what we paid for him and he's much more accomplished now.
Unless he demands first team football every week (don't see him as the type) this is a non-starter. I hope he, De Jong, and Kompany are City lifers - the signs are there.

I'm sure thats an old/rehashed article,the 6.5m bid was posted on here a while back.
In the context of the price of a player such as Zab with 12 months left,then yes,that amount is about right,however,under his current contract i'd want at least 10m......
Maybe he would be open to such a move though,i doubt he will be first choice unless Micah continues to have his regular fitness issues and he is too good and has too much competitiveness to be sat on any ones bench.He'd be a big loss but i can't say i'd blame him if he sought such a move.

spot on tbh, he is too good for anyones bench, until micah returned to form, he was by far the best full back in the club
Every great team needs players like Zaba, and I think he's content with his life and role at the football club.
If he wanted to move he'd do so with my best wishes, but I don't think we should underestimate his value to the club just because he couldn't rightly claim to be our best player in any one position.

Agree with the sentiment of both these statements. Zabba, if he wanted to be, could be more than just a tremendous asset to have on the bench or a valuable utility player for City; he could be a first team player for many a top flight club. For this reason, if he ever chose to leave us for first team football elsewhere, I would wholeheartedly give him my unreserved blessing and goodwill for the future.
I'd be utterly gutted if he left; but he also deserves regular game time, if he desires it.
