Fulham close on Zamora and Pantsil !

Fulham are expected to wrap up the double capture of West Ham pair Bobby Zamora and John Pantsil this week in a combined £7.5million package.

Both Zamora and Pantsil have fallen out of favour under Alan Curbishley at Upton Park, and are happy to make the short switch to Craven Cottage.

Fulham boss Roy Hodgson sees Zamora as the perfect replacement for Diomansy Kamara, who is out for six months, and is ready to stump up £6million for the former Spurs forward.

Versatile defender Pantsil will not cost as much, with Mohamed Al Fayed having to find £1.5million to recruit the 27-year-old according to the News of the World.

West Ham CEO Scott Duxbury said: "They want to play regular first-team football and we have given permission for them to speak to Fulham with a view to concluding a move."

Fucking hell Fulham always pay way over the odds.

Pantsil was a fucking ledge

Curbs is racist

not our fault white players are better

Zamora-£6m
Pantsil-£1.5m
Konchesky-£3.5m

Thanks Fulham...

Still...it's only payback for fucking us over with Luis Boa Morte. We paid £5m for that $h!t c**t!

Valon Behrami and Andy Johnson on the way then...

I quite rate Paintsil - Zamora is not great but not shite either.

Why would you want the poor mans Craig Bellamy ?

Probably because he is on the treatment table all the time.


This is really surprising though. Quite a few of us were expecting a overseas player given Hodgson's rep. I mean we need a target man (now Mcbride has left) Hodgson spent years with the vikings, they're all over 6ft, cheap and usually do well in the EPL. So how he decided on Zamora.


I've looked at Zamora's record and its not bad. Not great but about par for a team that escaped relegation. Its the price that annoys me. £6m urrgh.

I really don't know enough about Paintsil. How good or bad is he. We do need a right back since Volz has been phased out.

Pantsil is quick and good going forward...not the best defensively though.

Zamora is a good signing...90% of us West Ham fans don't want him to be sold...

who wants to bet that Curbishley spends the £6m he got for Zamorra on Louis Saha and the £1.5m he gets for Pant Sil on a new wing for the treatment room

I'm here all week

I'll take that bet then...
