Zab's Tackle Last Night

Mad Zab is an absolute fucking liability but can't help but love the fella.

Never known a player that I expect to get sent off every single game, you can hear the crowd pause for breath everytime he charges into a tackle.
 
One of the best full backs in the league but he just needs to learn to calm down when theres a 50/50 tackle, saying that, you need a player in your team that plays like Zabba. His passing and control are brilliant.

He's a good player to have in the squad - good attitude, committed, versatile, just needs to sort the tackles out a bit! I've got faith Mancini help guide him as opposed to Hughes who's management was probably based around charging into challenges
 
I'd like to see him given another go in midfield. A Barry and Zab partnership would work well against teams like Blackburn at home, both put the work in and love a battle. But more importantly they can both pass.

After he got booked at one point he was running from the edge of the box looking likehe was going to fly in as he has done previousely, then he stopped.

Maybe he is starting to realise that once booked he needs to be careful

I remember that haha, he sprinted out of the box to close down a couple of Blackburn plays, with an air of intent, it was one of those slow mo moments 'Zaaaaaabbbbb, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!', but he pulled out of it, thank fook.

I love his tackles, i just find myself wishing he'd wait until the 90th minute to commit them.
 
I do not want the guy to change a thing about himself.love the way he plays his football.To be the force we all know we are goin to be,we need players like him in our squad.Athug who can play football.fcukin love this club CTID.city when im fcukin dead also....
 
i like zab but his diving in has got to stop .
liverpool last year and wigan this year, ridiculous lunges that cost us both games.
if he stood up and defended properly he would be a top player .
 
Think it's an Argentinian thing, remember that Heinze down the road used to always do that as well. They just love going to ground in the tackle, that Mascherano loves his challenges as well.
 
Against Everton and the type of team they are we will need some of Zabs and De Jong aggression on Saturday.
