Redknapp defends Zamora

[Stanley]

Boss Harry Redknapp has leapt to the defence of QPR striker Bobby Zamora: http://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/q...efends-zamora?

He has a point. getting on your own players back cannot help anyone.

[NW_Hoopz]

Well if HR didn't keep picking him people wouldn't be getting on his back ..........

Ain't exactly set the world alight in his 18 months @ LR

If Zamora was a horse he'd have been shot by now, but i don't agree with booing him and still think a fit Zamora would be a great player at championship level.

A fit Zamora is a very decent player. Unfortunatley, the bloke seems to be a near on raspberry these days, to the point he looks uncomfortable running! Credit for him trying to play through the pain barrier last season when he was visible hurt & we had limited options up top, but I think HR needs to realise the bloke doesn't seem upto it these days, this hip op he seemingly avoided this summer looks like it really is required!

Getting on Zamora's back ain't guna help anybody. It's like a broken pencil.... pointless.

Ought not boo a player when they're trying and the team's doing well. If they're not trying and the teams in the tank then the boo is an essential weapon in the fan' s armoury. Booing Bosw@nka against Newcastle was wonderful. And productive. Ditto Park when subbed against Wigan.... Certainly think folk should take it easy on Bobby. He doesn't help himself mind with his apparent distant for the fans and his lack of an eye for goal.

His body language shows no interest and coupled with little effort hence why the fans jump on his back. I said on Saturday about Charlie Austins movement and effort and commented that you wouldn't get that work rate from Zamora. There was and instance when AJ ran down the right side of the away end (attacked the left wing) and Austin ran 40 yards to get into the box, his movement was excellent and he zig-zagged and peeled off his marker only for their defender to make a lunging tackle to stop the cross from AJ. It had a goal written all over it if the pass was completed but you can bet your bottom dollar Zamora wouldn't of made it to the edge of the box let alone lose his marker like Austin did. We all saw against Sheffield Wednesday his work rate and effort. He won one header just before he went off, yet Austin looked like he did more and was more of a nuisance in the first 3 mins of him coming on.

If his body language made him look like he gave a sh1t then maybe he wouldn't come under fire.

Even the pictures on the BBC showed him jumping off the bus, hood over his face and ran past the fans at Huddersfield, where as Harry and others all stopped for a few autographs!

Cant understand it and never will, booing your own players, remember when some booed Ferdinand when he was at the club at the start, saying he was lazy. A fit Zamora is a prem league player not a Championship player. Although i must admit he looks a little hampered at the moment, would never boo though.

[Corrode]

The Wednesday game really showed the difference. Green spent the first 70 mins smacking the ball up to Bobby only for him to jump half an inch and lose it. Austin came on and the first thing he did was win the header and flatten the defender as well.

Glad Harry is getting the message he is not wanted at the club

We can tell Zamora dont put in the effort and seen his best days

Now to pile on the pressure to let Harry know we dont want him to play unless all strikers are injured and last resort

Would like to see him go tbh, terrible striker

Why not go up and tell Bob to his face if you feel so strongly?.......Each player has a part to play maybe AJ won't score as many without Bob?

If Bob were a horse, he of been put down last Jan.

I actually thought when we 1st signed him he looked half decent and 'did' put in a shift, unfortunately I was hoping and praying he'd go under the knife but clearly the problem is allot more serious that I originally thought. If we could get shot of the bloke I would but no club will take him off our hands so we will have to use him like an 90 year old, sparingly!

I would only be telling him what he already knows

[twranger]

If it wasn't Zamora getting stick off the fans, it would be some other player........for some reason fans just have to have a player they like to stick the knife into...! Why?

[QPRDave]

Yeah course you would.........did you boo HH out the club?
Weare booing our own is self destruct, and then the same posters moan when the club start losing at home
