I don't know the appropriate abuse to use or that I could use in a thread title but what a way to make himself look like a bitter loser.
The Premier League Owl
So he managed to find a way out of James Collins’ pocket then, did he?
Bobby Zamora has been busy putting his nose where it’s neither wanted or needed, by launching a completely valueless attack on Fulham manager Martin Jol. In an interview that appears in today’s Evening Standard, the former Fulham forward had this to say about his ex-manager:
“Yes. I left because I didn’t see eye to eye with Martin Jol.
I think that is the case with the vast majority of players there now.
A lot of the lads aren’t happy. But that’s that. There were a few bits and pieces but we just didn’t see eye to eye.”
For want of a better phrase, what has it got to do with you?
I’m tempted to think that Zamora’s departure from Craven Cottage had more to do with him no longer being an automatic starter and the exorbitant wages Tony Fernandes was offering, than it did a falling-out with Jol. Or maybe this is just another instance of a player failing to get over being dropped and perceiving it to be disrespectful?
To be logical, if ‘the vast majority’ of players down by the Thames dislike the manager, then doesn’t it follow that ‘the vast majority’ of those players would have tried to leave the club over the Summer? Also, given what we know about how precious most footballers are, it doesn’t really follow that the squad at Fulham would have performed as well as they did last season – and as well as they are this year – if they, in fact, hated their managed. Nonsense.
What Zamora was trying to achieve with these comments is a mystery, because all he’s managed to do is make himself look extremely childish – and bitter, given that he’s now playing for a side rock-bottom of the Premier League.
Players who give performances like the one he turned in last night against West Ham shouldn’t really be doing any press. But on the plus side, if Zamora really can’t stand Jol, then he probably won’t have to worry about sharing a division with him for much longer…

Like his current manager he's taken a step down but doesn't seem to know it.
