VMC Man of The Match No 43 versus Fulham

If half the City team had shown the same endeavour and application that One Pablo Zabaleta did against Fulham, Mark 'Shakey' Hughes' lot would have copped for a proper pasting...

Zaba is a massive favourite in Manchester now and has won admirers across Planet Blue with his comitted performances and increasingly savvy tackles.

The unacceptable nonsense excuses of the squad being overworked and too tired don't apply to Zaba who is relishing the intensive series of games that City's players must succeed in if they are to aspire to anything this season.

The VMC Forum posse have made Zaba our Man of The Match.
