Decent squad player and would be content if he stayed. Wilson has showed him up big style, but due to his work rate, speed and ability to cover (just about) a variety of positions, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to have him in the squad.

Keep him. Play him AND Wilson CM. Just think how many goals our midfield will score then. Will put big fat frank to shame!

For me Zok's problem defensively is often that he doesn't get tight enough. Oppo players coming towards our area can often pick their passes/crosses/long shots out at their leisure with Zok in front of them..

Would miss him tho , a cheery sort of character , versatile too .

O'Hara, palacios, huddlestone, bostock, parrett, zokora......it puts these "we might not be good enough to hold onto 2nd" discussions in perspective :LOL:

We've improved so much - we used to have Zakora and now we've got Erriksen. Coys

I saw O'Hara play for Billieriacy Town against Dulwich Hamlet few weeks ago.

Not sure who that reflects worse on to be honest. Me or him.

I really liked Zokora, more surrprise that he is still playing "competitive" football. Even thou the Indonesia league isn't really up there... Football is still important there.

He was in the team that won the league cup thou... Think everyone on that squad has a special place in my heart.

Zokora can look back on his career and say he has a league cup winners medal. He was brave enough to step up and take a penalty against PSV as well, scored too. I wish him nothing but the best.

He would be up there amongst my worst ever midfielders. If BC describes Son and Dele as bumbling then I can only describe Zokora as " super bumbler ".His control was diabolical. And he was signed to replace Carrick ! How he was preferred to Tainio in the final after Teemu was magnificent in our demolition of L'Arse in the semi will always be beyond me. He had the chance to win it for us when he was clean through against Cech in the final when it was 1-1 . Needless to say he screwed it up.
