Hi ed001, what are your thoughts on Zouma? I still think he has the ability to be a world beater but has sadly regressed since 2014/ 15 Mourinho season.

I do think however, you put an intelligent defender with smarts and positioning and leadership beside him he'd be great. Thoughts?

{Ed001's Note - he just picks up too many injuries and takes too long to get back to his best afterwards, for my liking. Other than that, I think he is a very good defender, though not maybe suited for a possession-based team, as he does not want the ball at his feet. Not that he is particularly bad on it, there are a lot worse, but he is just so uncomfortable when given it.}

I completely agree with that ED - unless he happens to come ip against ajax again in which case he may fancy a 1 vs 11 dribble one more time. (Still makes me chuckle when I remember the look on Frank's face) .
