Has anyone heard anything about Zack at Benificia. Last i heard he wasnt even on the bench. Has he gotten to play at all? I'd hate for him to go over there and not play at all.
It seemed like when Zach went over there the reports all put a spin on it that Zach would win the starting job sometime this season. Every week that goes by though it seems like this is another situation like what Joe Cannon had last year at Lens. 6 Months and then back to MLS for Zach?? Does he try to latch on with maybe an English 1st Division side?
Apparently Zach's signing resulted in Benfica's injured reserve keeper recouping rather quickly from his ailments.
Really? I don't remember it that way at all. Almost from the day he signed, there were hints that it was a Cannon situation.
Superdave, You are correct. I can't remember seeing anything in the Portuguese press that suggested that Thornton was signed as anything but cover for Benfica starter Moreira.
Lego Maniac Correct. Zach knew going in that he was not even in contention for the starting job. He was signed as a back up. Though I have to assume he thought he would be dressing. Maybe he can get in a start during a friendly or something.
