His all round performance last night, against the current German champions, was superb. All the talk beforehand was of the Wolfsberg front two, Dzeko and Grafite (both of whom are probably going to the World Cup) but Zamora and Gera played them off the park. He has improved 1000% from the player that struggled to make an impact at West Ham (possibly down to Hodgson's man-management) and is in better form than most of the others vying for that position. As for the Ricketts comparison, Zamora has much more to his game and is much more skilful than Ricketts ever was.
