Oscar is pretty strong

Kurt Zouma opens up about Mourinho, 'crazy' Diego Costa & getting slapped about at Chelsea

[Special Juan 27,093]

He's living the dream him.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

Only Costa would have the balls to slap Zouma.

[5354 204]

He will get his chance for sure when we are playing 2/3 games a week.

Not sure about Ake though.

Brilliant attitude from Happy:

"Now there are senior players, stars in my position, and they are doing a great job. I take my time. I am learning besides those defenders. I know my time will come."

Brilliant attitude from Happy:

Oh Lukaku, why couldn't you be more like Zouma.

[bababoom 4,478]

Sounds like a down to earth lad, i really think he's going to be a top defender.

[The only place to be 11,313]

This lad is just saying and doing all the right things. Looking forward to the Bolton match because he should definitely get a start.

[Beigl 1,387]

This is the calm attitude that a young player needs when he wants slowly but showly to develop in a. good player.Unfortunately neither Lukaku and de Bruyne had it.They probably won't ever reach the top.

[AndersonBLUE 819]

This is what Lukaku said pretty much when he first joined, we know how that turned out. Hope Zouma matures better than Lukaku did, but good for him saying that stuff.

[DH1988 1,193]

That was before people in his ear told him he was better than sliced bread.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Lol, Lukaku name mentioned every time there is loyalty and commitment comments from any players.

[Namika 922]

I think Jose will play him in the CL.

I hope Zouma can develop to become like Kompany or Mangala. Seeing how those two comibined in defence yesterday was really painful. I think Eden and Diego might need some patching up after those body checks they got.

Kompany and Mnagala had it incredibly easy on Sunday though, our tactics meant they had very little to deal with and just the one striker to cover between them. And even then the referee let them get away with a lot of repeated fouls on Costa...and that's on the rare occasion Man City didn't stop any counter-attacks with a foul in midfield in the first place. Favourable circumstances and Kompany and Mangala took advantage, fair play to them. We'll see how they do against Roma/Bayern in their Champions League group and in the later rounds of the Champions League against teams that will go at them hard.

Anyway, really looking forward to seeing Zoom on Wednesday night. Hopefully we see a clear development from pre-season after several weeks in training.

With the way our defence has been dus far, he has a serious chance to win his place if he shows a good level of maturity and application. I ain't seen much of him but does any one know what he is like playing high line?

[Myself 793]

Think if he plays he needs Ivanovic or Terry to partner him, someone to guide him through the game
