Stoke and Fulham do well with Carson and Zamora

Two signings that look close to being completed are the moves of keeper Scott Carson from Liverpool to Premier League new boys, Stoke City, and West Ham striker Bobby Zamora to Fulham.

Both of these moves could be good news for the players and should be good news for their new clubs.

Despite Scott Carson's nightmare performance for England in the deciding and fatal encounter against Croatia at Wembley, he had a fine season for Aston villa. He has proved himself to be a top quality keeper and he will almost certainly get an awful lot of chance to show what he can do up at the Brittania.

Stoke City will have got themselves one of the top keepers in the country and Carson will have got himself a guaranteed first team place and a perfect opportunity to further his claims as England's number one.

Bobby Zamora has never quite lived up to the promise he showed as a youngster at Brighton. He has been on the fringes at West Ham for a long time. When I watch him play he looks big, reasonably mobile and strong and knows where the goal is.

I think as the main striker at Fulham he could accept the responsibility and show that he can perform at the top level. He will relish being a 'big fish' again and he will relish the opportunity to show the world that he can score goals in the Premier League.

All in all these two moves are pretty good business for all involved.
