January 2023 Transfer Rumours, Discussions and Done Deals Thread

[Axl Rose]

Just bring Bert back and have him take lessons from Emi!

[WassallVillain]

He's a fantastic player, and I enjoyed him conducting the crowd at VP when he was getting stick from all 40k.

I enjoyed that too.  Knew we were trying to get to him and gave some back in a fun, non intimidatory fashion.  All’s fair as they say.   I also like him as a player but didn’t realise he was that old. He would definitely have more caps if he sat on the bench of MCFC.

He's played 10 times this year for Ivory Coast, how many more games would you be expecting?

No thanks to Saha , Crystal  Palaces' very own Gabby Agbonlahor (only Gabby wasn't as good at winding up opposition)

[N'ZMAV]

Zaha, half the Villarreal squad, Douglas Luiz ‘still’ being stolen by Liverpool, Arsenal & Newcastle & now apparently Chelsea want Bailey. Links to the whole Rangers squad, their reserves, half their youth team & several Rangers players WAGS have now stopped though. “Journalism” not even fit for toilet paper. It will all get worse while the World Cup is on.

and Robbie Keane

and not as good as player either to be fair

My main objection to Saha is that he is 44 and retired.

[Villa Lew]

Linked with Oxlade-Chamberlain, no thanks want someone, who's gonna play more than half a dozen games a season for us.

Doh.
Can you tell I have no football interest outside of AVFC

[CT Villan]

Unless we are opening a glue factory we should be no where near Oxlade-Chamberlain.

And Juninho

Zaha is great, both his ability and shithousery, but i'd pass on us signing yet another milk bottle player on saft wages.

Has Benni McCarthy arrived at Bodymoor Heath yet?

[Drummond]

Emery wanted Zaha when he was at Arsenal, and they went and bought Pepe for him instead....

[charlatan]

Zaha seems like a self-centred, bad for dressing room morale type (but possibly it's all for show and he's a lovely chap off the pitch).

Spoke to a young Palace fan on a bus from Kilmarnock to Darvel a few years ago. He claimed that his sister had dated Zaha. He also said he had been sent up to Ayrshire from south London to stay out of trouble. I believed the second bit, but not the first.
