I wonder if we are still in for Zaha? Hasn’t gone to Saudi yet. Proven high level PL talent on a free.

Zaha is a very good player and the type of footballing wider player I think we might be looking for.   On a free transfer, some may not like his attitude on the pitch but I suspect when he's on your side, we'd learn to like it.

Doesn't exactly strike me as the platonic ideal of an Unai Emery player.

Didn't Emery want him when he was at Arsenal?

Yeah but they spanked £72m on the waste of space Pepe instead

Pretty widely reported he’s got a £200k a week offer from Palace which, if you believe that article about our wage structure that was on here recently, puts him outside of it

Be a great addition for us though, almost perfect.

A prima donna and actually possess mediocre stats in his Palace career. Nearly 300 games about 60 goals and 40 assists. We need to keep away.

I don't think we should buy anyone from the big 6 or the bottom 3, so just the 11 clubs. Seriously though, I don't know why people have these blanket views, it's obviously a case by case basis and all depends on what the player has or hasn't done. I couldn't care less which club they have come from as long as they are deemed good enough, that last bit you can debate but not where they have come from.

I expect Zaha to stay at Palace.

He's a local lad and just become part owner of AFC Croydon

Incredible that a club the size of Palace are prepared to offer him that kind of wedge. I imagine they have a fair few in their squad on close to a tenth of that sort of money.

Wasn't Benteke on about £130k a week ?
