Confirmed Signing Kurt Zouma

[KaiserEFC]

He's not even been given a squad number this season mate. Don't think he's part of the plans.

That sounds promising

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Interesting.

Not sure I’d want a defender who basically got relegated with Stoke though.

Roy Keane got relegated. Reckon he might have improved our team at the time.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Ha Ha Ha. Zouma.

FFS.

As I’ve said before, I’m no expert on Zouma’s capabilities.

However, opinion seems split. Some rave about him and some think he’s appalling.

Overall, I’d give him a swerve. Although if we did take him I’d wish him the best and give him a chance.

 

[Lelouch]

29 people saying no? Would love to see the reasoning for this considering we currently have Michael Keane and Jagielka as our starting defenders because Holgate is injured.

 

[Neiler]

Ive mixed feelings on this one, he was fantastic for Chelsea when he broke through he got a really bad injury that took him a long time to recover from and from what i saw at Stoke last season he wasn't great.

 

[Berenger]

I'd take him but it's a low bar for obvious reasons.

Interesting question is: is he better than Mangala? For me, no.

 

[Peanut94]

i think Zouma could be a great player for us depending on who's next to him, the injury is also a worry as he has never looked the same since.
A Loan would be great business

 

[DRINGO]

for me yes mangala is terrible in the short time he was here !

 

[terraloon]

It's a loan deal, won't cost us anything. It's a position we need strengthening by miles. Better replacement for Williams. I can't find many negatives.

Bit of a myth I am afraid. Most loans come with a fee. Stoke paid £7 million fee for his loan last season so I would expect with a contribution toward his wage a seasons loan gonna cost around £10 million

 

[degsy]

He was a really promising youngster but then tore his ACL and has never been close to what he was since. He’s no longer fast, has the the turning circle of a tractor and has always had positional issues.

Rubbish on the ball, too.

Hence the loan/try before you buy...if indeed we do buy
But - we need somebody, preferably two somebodies
Maguire and Lacseles arent going to beam down to FF.

 

[TmoMoney0721]

Get him in on loan with an option to buy, he's won the league and played in the champions league, if we can get him and Mina in our defense will be much improved.

 

[jackyboy]

Mina to win the headers, Zouma to use his pace to cover behind.

 

[SixtyGrand]

Paper talk this.

 

[billyblue80]

This looks an easier deal than the Mina farce.
