Zalayeta is showing signs of a top-class striker(he is quite a complete striker, while most of us thought he was just a big clumsy sloth). Who would've expected that ?
On the other hand he does have a solid team to back him up and more than decent support and assists to work with.
i remember it was a similar case with carini a few years ago.he broke into the first team for a couple of games,played exceedingly well and then left for first team football(it could've been the club's decision or his.)
zala might end up doing the same cos he's not going to get his chance no matter how well he plays now.
Zalayeta is great! he is like a half Trezeguet, but has much better technique. I didnt know that he was this good before. Just seen him in some matches. I remember his Barca goal the most.
