Man, everybody seems afraid to say so, but zakaria’s been a flop
He's been underwhelming but I think it is too early to call him a flop. He had put in some good defensive work that goes lately unnoticed.

He needs a run of games before writing him off but the other side of the coin is that he has had injury issues that have stopped that happening.

Looks like the same old shit that that has ruined us for years

Can't pass, looks terrified under pressure, offers little going forward and his defensive abilities don't make up for it.

I'd happily see him go as long as we actively avoid these sorts of players going forward, free or not.

Oh and he's injury prone to boot.

I am not saying the opposite but I do think that six months only is not enough. He could still be sold at the end of the season with not so much less of a price. He is still young and easy to move. Which is basically the only reason we are selling him. He is sellable.

Sell Zak and McNuggets and bring in SMS. I shall deem that acceptable.

Go all in for Zaniolo, and then we can flip the cumstains like Fagiot, Sandro, Kean and Arturd come summer 2023 and bring in a quality LB and some more depth.

Prediction: Zakaria will do decently well this season. Next summer his value on the books will be amortized down further, and we can sell him for 10m more than we could have this summer. Increased plusvalenza.

Yet he was our best of the 3 mids last game.
Too early to call him a flop.
If you call him a flop, Locatelli at 40 million is also a flop.
Everybody was laughing at Man utd state of affairs at least they are overpaying for top midfielder. We want to sell Zakaria because in six months he has become as bad as Arthur.
