Zaha

[Commander]

Utter shit today.

Repeat ad infinitum.

How on EARTH did they get £10m for him?!

Hmm. To be perfectly honest I thought he looked like an absolute top quality player.

 

[lighthouse]

Zaha = top class winger or top class whinger?

I know where my vote is. 3rd best winger on the pitch today.

 

[Acker79]

I thought we made him appear more threatening than he is because we just backed off and let him get closer and closer to the goal.

 

[Sussax]

Agreed, although it was very rare for him to have the ball in the box, couldn't get past the defence.

 

[The Wizard]

Hmm. To be perfectly honest I thought he looked like an absolute top quality player.

Yeah I agree actually. Had a shocker of a game but you can see if someone really trains him hard and sorts him out he will be a real good player one day, has a great first touch and good skills just a bit petulant but to be expected at his age.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Very tricky player, but not that very much more so than LuaLua is.

 

[Weststander]

Zaha was class - not sure what game people here were watching. Granted, he was much less effective against Bridge, but that's hardly surprising given Bridge is international class. He reminded me of a very young Ronaldo. Ferguson will sort out his end product and England will have a quality player.

The support around Zaha was rubbish though. Palace were a one-man team

The little clues suggest a ManUre fan possibly?

 

[halbpro]

Biggest problem he had, at least in my opinion, was he seemed unwilling to pass the ball. Made him incredibly easy to deal with, just pressured him further and further back. He's certainly got the close ball control, I can't deny that, but if you don't use the ball after that then what's the point? Vicente and LuaLua are, on occasion, guilty of a similar issue, but not nearly to the extent we saw from Zaha today.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Erm.. No. Not in the slightest

 

[fleet]

Too selfish, no end product. Looks a waste of money.

 

[Wozza]

Erm.. No. Not in the slightest

You were at Old Trafford last week though...

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Looked class until he crossed the white line into the box and then his legs gave way. Bit of a problem there for manure. Bought a dud.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

You were at Old Trafford last week though...

True... So that's one more time than most United fans to be fair

 

[watsongooal]

I thought he looked very good. And every time he got the ball I thought he was going to rip us apart.

 

[Hans Kraay]

Perhaps I'm wrong but I thought zaha was ok today, showed some passion where as the rest of his team mates showed nothing! I saw he went to Bridge at the end to swop shirts, I think he knew today he had met his match.

 

[lawros left foot]

Makes me laugh when palace fans sing "He's too good for you", when he is obviously too good for them, cos he couldn't wait to sign for the mancs

 

[shaunslats]

easily crowded out of the game, nothing of any worth throughout, didn't mind him getting the ball in second half as it didn't feel like he'll be a threat but unfortunately will be a good player somedy, diving moaning mong tho

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

We said all along that Buckley is a better all round player than Zaha , I think this was proved today.

 

[Soulman]

I bet he hopes Sir Alex wasn't watching today. Petulant

Well seeing as Ferdinand and a few other Manure players are always in the refs face......i think Zaha will fit in nicely.

 

[albionite]

I thought he looked very good. And every time he got the ball I thought he was going to rip us apart.

But thats the point, he didn't. I think our players showed him a little to much respect at times and let him run with the ball(perhaps they knew what they were doing as he did fook all). Lua Lua was far superior and my man of the match
