A real favourite of mine despite only being here 3 months. Adapted very quickly to English football, good solid defender and dangerous from set pieces. Always a player that has stayed in my memory since. Wasn’t the rumour that we we’re paying £13,000 a week for him in wages and expenses though? I’m sure I recall something like that. Crazy money if it was.

Far to young to pass away, rest in peace Zhang. UTM!


£13,000 is the figure I remember. Cheap at the price, though, as his goals and all round performances played a huge part in keeping us up. Relegation would have been much more expensive. Technically, one of the best players to wear a Town shirt in all my years of following the club. RIP Zhang.

Terrible news this, despite being at the club only a short while he developed an affinity with the fans.

RIP Zhang

Oh exactly, it paid off. Probably the last time we speculated to accumulate.

  This is very sad news. So yesterday this ex-professional athlete celebrated his 48th birthday in apparently excellent health and today he drops dead ? I suppose these things do happen, but it seems like there may be a bit more to this story.

Very sorry to hear this.

He wasn't with Town long, but made more of an impression than many who had far longer stints here.

RIP.

I don't recall him being that brilliant defensively but that was perhaps due to communication issues with his teammates. I don't think he spoke a lot of English, did he? I remember him as a real threat aerially - a defender known more for his goals, than stopping them. Didn't realise he'd won quite so many caps for China and had won so many titles over there.

RIP
