markg Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'd offer him and Buxton new contracts. I don't think that we will release loads of players. If people are expecting us to release half the squad and replace them all in one summer I think that they are going to e disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how much we've missed him. I have said earlier this year that I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't offered a new contract due to injuries but now I'm really torn (like a medial meniscus). He seems to have improved us since coming back. Need someone of that quality only 5 years younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Zayatte I really don't know about , I thought he was dead in the water but he's come back fighting and put in some top performances so maybe SG will want to keep him around Lewis Buxton i wouldn't write off .. Fully fit he's far better than both Palmer and Vermijl , he's a had a shocker with injuries recently but if he can proove his fitness I still think he takes the shirt off Palmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britpunk77 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Zayatte has performed well when called upon. It maybe a question of who wants to stay at S6 especially in the centre back mould, I hope we could retain Zayatte and Loovens but I get the feeling their appetite for staying is not a given.

jonesy87shef Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Sorry to be a bit negative but it's no coincidence when some players who have barely performed suddenly start playing well when their contract is due to expire. I'd be hoping we would be aiming for much better in the summer if we can offer competitive wages or even fees for players. If not he has done well recently and possibly offer him another year. Although his injury record is also a concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Zayatte and loovens and Buxton have all had many injuries over the last few years. It's alright looking at things through rose tinted specs but we should be going for players with decent injury records with the hunger to drive us forward. Look at good old fan favourite reda .... Not started since October for cov.... Total waste of time. Granted the three above players have done well and I like all 3 but it's time we stopped carry injury prone players who are going to barely feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian joicey Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 interesting that lees now looks steadier again with a trusted partner (unlike his partnership with dielna) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigger Guns Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I think zayatte has been excellent when called upon this year and on pure footballing ability would get a new deal every day of the week. His injury record is a slight concern though. If we were to let him go we'd probably have to bring 2 CB's in though which seems unnecessary overhaul. If we brought in a young CB in the tom lees mould we'd have an excellent pool of CB's to choose from: Lees Loovens Zayatte Other Zayatte's injury problems would be less of a concern knowing we've got another tom lees in the waiting. He'd probably be 4th choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincowl Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 To all these people saying Zayatte would be backup, he is consistently out performing Lees and standing out more than Loo ens did. Accept that he deserves a first team place when playing to this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accept that he deserves a first team place when playing to this level. I think it would be wise to judge Zayatte on his 2 years at the club, rather than the handful of games he's covered towards the end of his contract when he's looking to earn another... Same goes for every player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 It takes time to develop confidence in a centre back and I'm not there yet. He has improved no end but to me he has a habit of making the wrong turn or the wrong choice and can be a little clumsy at times. The recent improvement needs to continue.

IstillhateSteveBould Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Improved massively from last season. Looked an absolute joke of defender for a while. Got his chance when Loovens was injured, and he's taken it. Deserves a year deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
