Zarate

[Yousef]

Carl Serrant, but he seems to be just as clueless as Harry. Is that even possible?

such a shame.

[Jimmy Floyd Rabbit]

Not fit enough for 10 mins?

Yet on the bench as our only recognised forward?

Who picks the team?

[geejaybee]

Do we have medical staff? Do they know about fitness test?

My thoughts entirely.If I remember there was some hesitancy after a two part medical."Misrepresentation"and "not fit for purpose" spring to mind.WTF is going on?

[Shepherds Mush]

Is Zarate match fit? Hasn't played for West Ham for ages....

If not shouldn't have been signed. Will be a month since window was open once the next game comes around & we'd of lost the last 3 & not won in 6 games yet Zarate has the grand total of 10 mins at Burnley under his belt.

Absolutely criminal.

This, at least, shows that he wants to get fit and is willing to put in the effort. The Club obviously knew he wasn't fit before they signed him because it was said that they renegotiated terms with West Ham. We don't know what these terms are, but it could be that West Ham are paying part of his salary and taking nothing from the Club.

Adel, on the other hand, did not want to get fit which is why he wasn't picked even as a sub. It sounds like he has now decided to make an effort.

This can only be a good thing. If both players are just unfit (not totally sure what exactly this means), and not injured, then they should be able to make a contribution to the team.

I can understand why Zarate was signed (even if currently unfit) as he could turn out to be a match winner from next month if he gets fit.

My question is why wasn't Taarabt made to do these gruelling sessions and fined if he refused to?

We already have a player in our squad who can be a match winner no need to waste a loan

The article I posted says Tarbs is on the same training regime as Zarate I think?

If you had read the link you were referring to you would have known the answer.

For the first part, they may have taken a risk on him given the lack of availability of loan signings of any quality. If we can bring him to fitness, he is an absolute beast of a player. Second point is that we lack players who respect the club at all to be able to make the bench. The other option would have been to bring SWP to the bench and that was never going to happen in truth.

Which substitution would you have made and at what time agains ManU if you were the manager

[jpsuperhooper]

Do a United, chant and sing for substitutions, we know more than he does!
