He'd fit in well alongside Neymar at PSG.

[Football] The "Where will Zaha go?" Summer 2018 thread
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
But who are Palace going to replace him with? The only player who I can think of who comes close in the cheating / falling over / rolling around / looking hard done by / faking injury / winning dodgy pens mould IS Neymar. They must be scouring the leagues for anyone with such attributes.

Palace will continue to ask too much due to the sell on clause so he will stay there, in the pit of misery
It might actually make sense for them to sell though. If the PL bring in VAR anytime soon then his value will plummet as he spends half the season suspended and the other half failing to win penalties. Better to offload him to some mug club like Everton who love wasting money than end up with an "asset" worth a fraction of what it was. However this will also be of consideration to a buying club (if they have any sense - see Everton who don't) re length of contract etc.

Don't be so sure. There's a lot wrong at that club and Wilf must know something. He is not going to want to devote his entire career to keeping a club afloat on his own. Having said that the fees being suggested for a player that scores 1 in 8 and has similar statistics for assists is quite remarkable and come largely from Palace fans who overstate his ability. Zaha is not the best player outside of the top 6 by a comfortable margin. He is just Palace's talisman. He did nothing at United and very little while out on loan.

VAR would have resulted in Wilf being awarded more penalties last season, not less.

I am sure Wilf wants out but the club want BIG bucks, I hope he stays and is unhappy and causes unrest

Where will Zaha go? To ground in the box, same as he always does.

Two links already provided on this thread to show it isn't utter nonsense.

Spurs hopefully
Quality player and he’s still got room for improvement as well.
Gutting he picked Ivory Coast over England, he could have given us that extra edge.

One of those links says “The precise details of the agreement have remained private between the two clubs but it’s understood United would also have a buy-back option if Palace wanted to sell Zaha.”
I’m not sure I’d consider that as evidence that it’s not utter nonsense, would you?

The chap said that United can buy Zaha back for £3m. It's complete drivel and you know it; if this clause really existed (which, again, it doesn't) they'd have used it last summer and sold him for £40m.

Zaha's going out on Loan.
