How quickly we forget. Zambro is one player I would definately love to see back in black & white. His displays for us since being moved to fullback by Marcelo Lippi have been consistantly outstanding. This goes for both flanks. At the World Cup he was easily as good, if not better than Grosso. Sure the Interista grabbed the goals & the headlines, but overall Zambro gave far more, who can forget his performance (& great goal!) v Ukraine. He gives us great width, allowing the midfielder ahead of him (think Neddy) to drift inside in search of the ball. With him in our side, we play with 5 in midfield when in possesion, but his pace & athletisism mean he still gets back in position to keep 4 in defence. He is always on top of his game & at times is like having 2 players, one of the best defenders in world football, & a great attacking force, with an excellent supply of crosses with either foot. Surely we would be a better side with him over the likes of Zebina, Biri or Balzaretti, no?
Come back Zambro, we miss you.
