Gotta feel for the poor lad, staying there.
Yes you're right. However, word is that the way it's going to be used in the PL this season is that if the VAR team can see why the ref gave something (eg, a penalty), then they won't overturn it. Which makes VAR seem pointless (I think there are going to be a lot of problems with VAR that need addressing this season).
I would hope that refs are a little more cautious giving out penalties, as they know that if there really is one, then VAR will give it. With the VAR rules as they've been described, I'd rather see refs only give penalties when they're sure.
I told all of you he would stay and stay he has
Watch him terrorise defences this season and btw he owes you .
Ridiculous comment, he’s less of a threat to us having been refused a transfer and being stuck with your mess of a football club [emoji23], uncle Woy even had to send the melt home because he spat his dummy out, what a state.

The coward returns. Only shows up when it thinks that it has something to crow about. Coward.

I don't know what is better, Zaha leaving, or Zaha being inconsolable and sent home because he can't face playing for Palace anymore.

Adrian Durham: "Wilfried Zaha is going nowhere, and another thing that's going nowhere is Crystal Palace after the transfer window they've just had"

I hope Wilf isn’t too upset. He is now playing for a team that he’s requested to leave.

The other side of the coin is that by signing a contract he was giving CP the chance of a bigger fee when they sold him. The flaw is that they didn't agree a release clause which would have set the value. Seems the 'gentlemen's agreement' was that if they got a reasonable fee they'd let him go. Should have decided at the time what was reasonable!!!
Still, happy days for us.

And Everton play at Palace on Saturday.
That will rub it in.

So Napoli are prepared to pay approx £20m less than the bid Palace rejected from Everton?
I'm not convinced that'll do the trick, to be honest.

But not selling to a team in the same league, ticks the box for CL football, and if quoted in Euro's it's now probably worth £154m given the falling exchange rate

Bayern Munich also now could be interested again after the Sane injury. So still possible with those two clubs reportedly interested
If that happens can you imagine his sulking levels
A fair point. The only thing that could conceivably swing it is if he’s really angry, goes on strike and a Mexican Stand-off develops. Admittedly unlikely but still just about possible.

Hodgson just said he's going to speak to Wilf tommorow and...
"hopefully by then he will have come to terms with the fact that he will be staying at Crystal Palace".
Perhaps he should extend his pep talk to the poor folk of Croydon.

Me neither.
Being rational, if Palace now sell the SEGW to the likes of Napoli, then they couldn't buy a replacement till the window opens in January. Though the Wan-Bissaka money apparently disappeared into thin air, and no replacement was bought, surely even Palace wouldn't be so dumb as to try the same trick twice.
Being irrational, as Parish is wont to do, the SEGW is already worth £140m simply because his value goes up £20m a week. So by the time Napoli get round to submitting an offer, they need to be thinking in terms of £180m minimum. Which is of course a bargain for the Third Best Player in the World, who will inevitably become #1 when Ronaldo and Messi call it a day in the next few years.

Truly the best part, almost as if Woy himself is a bit like "Fckin' hell, am I still here as well? Should have thrown in the towel like Big Sam."

A different kind of pasty
I was going along the lines of The Diving One being booked after VAR overruling an awarded penalty. Is that not going to happen with Premier league version of VAR?
