The England international was recalled after an Achilles injury for Monday's last-gasp 2-1 defeat of 10-man Arsenal. Zamora scored the all-important goal in stoppage time to put him in the headlines for the right reasons. The 30-year-old's relationship with Jol has been the subject of increasing scrutiny over recent months, but the Dutchman rejected such talk. Zamora has been linked with a January exit, with QPR, Sunderland, Aston Villa and Bolton all mooted as potential destinations. Asked whether the striker would leave during the transfer window, Jol said: "He has never asked me for a transfer request. "For me, it is just speculation. Maybe you know more than me?" "It's always the same," added Jol. "If you are number nine at any club and can make the difference, I'm very happy. "I love my players, especially when they score goals. "He was injured. We talk about it and make assessments two days before, he was injured. "He had problems with his Achilles and ankle and couldn't travel with us. "You have to play another player, and [Orlando] Sa scored which was good. "We did the same for this game and he said he could play so he plays because he is my main striker." Jol was more forthcoming when asked about Marseille striker Andre-Pierre Gignac. The Cottagers have been linked with a loan move for the France international, who almost joined the west Londoners in August. "We had an interest in him in the last transfer window, then [Marseille manager Didier] Deschamps decided to keep him there because they could not get the player they wanted," Jol said. "He is still there and nothing changed. But he is injured as well. "I don't get injured players, it would be ridiculous."
