Zinman, I would probably agree, to play top flight football you have to be a good footballer so that would mean there are a lot of good footballers raising the standard and would make him average, playing among excellent players hides a multitude of sins and can make you look better than you are.
His arrogance in saying he decided to retire because he struggled to cope against average players at clubs like west brom and stoke is the thing that annoys me. Not everyone has a multi multi million pound squad to hide behind.
Is it time to cut the likes of man utd, man city, arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and tapping up Tottenham loose and to rejoin the football league, a more balanced, even, level playing field?.
