Well said Father Ted. Love the guy and so pleased that he'll be around to pick up a few more medals

I'm pretty sure David signed for 4 years which leaves him with 2 and a half years to go.

Vinnies' ends in 2014 too

Not quite true as Zabba can actually play the game, and is around 1000 times better than Sun will ever be. City fans actually love Zabba, whereas Sun was a bizarre circus act who will be raised in conversations when we recall some of the crap thats played for us over the years.

Great news on Zabba and AJ. Well deserving - Zabba is our consumate pro, playing wherever asked and never goes missing when the going gets tough.


I'm starting to think the same thing - I hope we're wrong though. Good news about the other two though. Really happy for Zabs to sign especially.

de jong will give the same surprise as aj gave.he will sign too.
remember medai sayed aj has almost quit the club.dj will sign too

I loved Sun. Unconditionally.
He could step in and do a decent job in any position asked of him.
I agree that our team now is light years better, and that Sun would be totally out of place. The comparison with Zabba is still legit, though. Zabba is Sun 2.0.

Zabba is no Sun.

Sun could score the odd own goal wondergoal, like the wonderous diving header for boro (I think).

Till zabba adds this to his game he is not in Sun's stratosphere ;D

Brilliant news about Zab.

Echoing other fans view on he is a model professional. Never speaks out in the media, works hard, steps up when needed.
Can play either fullback position, defensive mid or midfield.
Remembering his first season with us, he can put a decent cross in and strike the ball quite well. Not bad at freekicks, although probably about 8th/9th in our current pecking order :P

I'm someone who has often slagged Zabaleta off for giving the ball away with misplaced passes, fouls he gives away, etc. But I think he has improved greatly (not surprising with the players he trains with) and has proved me wrong. He still makes silly mistakes from time to time but no one can fault his effort and determination. He seems like he has his head screwed on off the pitch too. Extremely happy he has extended his contract. Along with AJ who is different class.
