‘ZAHA COMMITMENT NOT IN QUESTION’
Wilfried Zaha continues to show the same commitment to Crystal Palace since his failed summer exit, manager Roy Hodgson has confirmed.
The 26-year-old winger handed in a transfer request a day before Deadline Day. Hodgson says Palace were prepared to allow Zaha to leave but Arsenal and Everton failed to meet their £80m valuation for the Ivory Coast international.
"With Wilf, I don't think anyone was thinking we definitely must block him because we want our best player still with us," Hodgson said.
"We understood that if a really big offer comes his way and a much bigger club than Crystal Palace want him, and he is desperate to go, we are going to have to try and do some kind of deal.
"The unfortunate thing for Wilf is that offer did not come his way from the sort of club that he would want. I think Steve Parish has made that clear to Wilf and they've thrashed that side of it out.
"As a result it is not a major problem for me with Wilf coming back, having accepted the situation. The way he works here is just the same as it was. Since the first day he has been mature about it."
Fukk's sake just say "Despite being disappointed he did not get the move he wanted in the summer he has been a model professional". Ah well just confirm he was immature over the summer then.
