Wilfried Zaha

[ninjamonkey]

Last thing we need is another winger.

sterling, Riyadh, Ferran, braaf the list goes on

The list goes on? It literally stops there, and one of those has done nothing but train with the first team a handful of times. The wings is one of our least stacked positions, we could do with another player there but not zaha

I think he would be amazing in our team, adds pace power and penalties. In a game against Bayern say we could match them perhaps even play Raheem through the centre. In the words of Keegan “I’d love it, love it...”. We could also get an inside scoop if he slept with Moyes daughter! Micah could then talk about on BT sport!

Zaha has reached his comfy point, never going to progress from what and where he is, albeit the name of the club will be different but of no better standard .

A players who looks good in a poor team, had his chance at the big time and was found wanting at every level.

 

[Phil1]

Nope.

 

[sir baconface]

Deserves a lot more respect than he gets on here. Was a lot younger when he was at Stretford and IIRC was allegedly banging the Moyesiah’s daughter.

Plays very effectively in a mediocre team that is predominantly defence-minded, and despite receiving agricultural attention at times. He’d get a few goals for us.

If we hadn’t bought Ferran, he‘d be worth serious consideration.

 

[Ancoats blue]

Brilliant player when Palace are on a winning run, so difficult to mark or stop, and gets goals ... but when things aren't going so well he isn't really noticeable enough, so you'd have to question whether his overall consistency and workrate would be enough for Pep.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

He’s another Mahrez. Looks like one of the best players in the league when on song but generally flatters to deceive.

He is a poor , simply not good enough or clever enough as a footballer.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

Not sure why he has to be definitively “poor” or “brilliant.” He has shown that he thrives within the level of expectation and tactical setup employed at Palace. Would he make the step up at City? My suspicions are that he wouldn’t, but that wouldn’t make him a bad player, just a bad fit

What is this big team you speak of.

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Where he plays, the style suits him. He would struggle to play against defend with 10 teams, same with an awful lot of players

 

[Keeper!]

He had a great chance at United, he blew it.

He has little discipline on the pitch, plays his own game, ok at Palace but not at clubs looking for titles.

I’m beginning to think this photo may not be pukka.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

I’m excited, is that the photo we’ve been waiting for.

I fully prepared to be shot for this but I quite like Zaha as footballer. I know people say he had a chance before but let's face it Moyes was his manager.

I saw him play a few times when I lived in S.London (lads on my football team were big palace fans), he is a great athlete with a good touch and shot.

I genuinely wouldn't mind a punt on him for 40/50 million.

What pint would you want, exactly, for £40/50 million?

Punt!!!

He has a 56 page thread and you think you are the only one that rates him??

Not really the point, the issue is no top club has ever put a serious bid in for him. The closest that he has ever got was Arsenal sniffing around him before they signed Pepe. I can't recall any of the big clubs in the PL or Europe showing an interest in him like Sancho, Hudson Odoi or Sane. You could argue that Palace put a prohibitive price on him, but in the last 12-18 months they have let it be known that he was available.

Strange that no team has bitten at the very least he contributes at a squad level.
