Wilfried Zaha

I just wonder if Zaha has a buyout clause for a top four team, there have been quite a few rumours about Spurs and Palace have always said they want to keep him but acknowledge that he may go, just a thought no info.

If the stories are true this is not just suddenly now on. It was being considered and presumably worked on for a few days before Sane got injured. It was not prioritised because we hoped to get Fred this window. But if that has been put back to Summer they may well want to accelerate this option instead. They may have done the basics already.

Would Palace sell? Not easily. Would Zaha ask to come? That might decide it.

I also believe Pep could really make a good player from this guy and as a back up to stop Sane having to play every game a great option.

He is the kind of player you could bring on with half an hour to go against a worn out defence and cause mayhem in our system.

If what is true? When have we been linked with Zaha?
 
Is this just a zaha might work but if chat or is there actually something in this? Why would Palace let him go? I see no sense in it. Certainly not on loan.

In the media last week and Tolmie posted numerous videos about it that pointed right at him around the time the Sanchez deal went wrong. Discussed earlier.

We only know for sure it is a surprise name to most who know City's target and this kind of player based on what Twosips was told today.

So it is not just guesswork. Just joining a few dots with half a picture.

There was nothing of substance in the media and anything posted on here was pure speculation or, more specifically,fabrication.

No just what Twosips says that we are going for that kind of player now after Fred stalled.

He did not know the name.

The Zaha name came from prior stories that we were after 3 targets this window - Laporte (done), Fred (off till Summer) and the mystery winger that Tolmie implied could be Zaha.

Depends if you trust Tolmie as genuine. I know a lot don't. But I do.

But all we know for sure it is that kind of player and a surprise that we are interested in the player to those who say they know the identity but haven't told us.

Take that as you will.
 
Hopefully Tolmie will come on and tell us his take on what has happened today with Fred and this mystery winger that his posts in the Sanchez thread seemed to identify as Zaha.

Don't take everything so literally and a day is a long time in the transfer window so what was said a week ago is a week ago

Douglas costa for me and pep rates him.

Rated him...

I guess with the run of the year he played with him it got less. Got his tricks - but lacks match intelligence and somewhat the eye for other players. Reminds me a lot of Shaqiri who drove me as inpatient watching him. So different to e.g. Coman who really can beat his man but the more and more he gets playing practice the more and more he adapts to the team.

Nathan Redmond would be a shite signing. Much rather see Diaz get a chance.

I agree on Diaz should be given more of the chance but Redmond is the much better option than Zaha. To be honest both would be overpriced and would be difficult to move on in a seasons time.

Which is why I said that hopefully he will come along and tell us what happened today.

I have not taken anything literally. Just collated a few things posted on here in the past week to create a picture of the clues.

You decide what to make out of it.

But I did not come up with the Zaha thread or the idea he might be coming here. I have no idea either way.
