Sorry chaps! I don't buy that.
If non-league teams can overcome football's elite to become FA Cup giant killers. When talented young players can be picked from obscurity to become overnight Premier League stars, it only proves one thing;
Whoever the opposition, at whatever level, you've either got it or you haven't.
Good keepers are judged on the number of clean sheets, strikers on the number of goals scored.
So far Dion Charles has made only 8 league appearances, 6 of those as a sub + 1 Cup game, scoring 4 goals.
If that doesn't merit a position at the front of the queue for selection, I don't know what does?
Unfortunately, Coley has invested too much time & faith in Zanzala to accept that the gamble to sign him full time hasn't paid-off.
They say that 'Cream always rises to the top'.
But then again - 'You can't make a silk purse............ etc.
