All the Zaha stuff [Merged]

[Glenn-Murray]

Good luck with the money you get but, our players are not meant to entertain you are they.

I don't know about that...

Your future is going to be bland, boring and dull. Ours is going to be exciting, memorable and a bloody good roller coaster and I know where I would rather be.

Tell me, oh Mystic Smeg, how do you know these great truths?

But they do , they often do !!

Thank you.

It either shows that everyone in football over-rates Zaha (unlikely) or that we've got an incredible academy (fact)

Fact? You don't know what that means do you. Name me all the top players from your academy.
- it's Moses isn't it? I don't think there are any others.
and how good do you think Zaha is? Do you think he's the best young footballer in England for the last 2 decades - and you think you have a couple of others in the academy that could be better?
And Dougie thinks that, and he left?

 

[Se20]

Thank you.

No, THANK YOU !!

But they do , they often do !!

If often is for half a season, then they do

I swore never to post on here again but going to this once as i do read every day.

This amazing academy with these fantastic youngsters would that be why you finished bottom of the first phase of the u21 premier league and are in qualification group and not elite, yet you have the best academy going

Admittedly better than ours but wont be for long once ours gets underway, you done well to get the money for Zaha insane fee and shows what a complete farce prices for English talent has become

Se20 is right. That is a great post.

Entertained the fans and netted us £17m by the sounds of things. More than any of your players have done. Ever.

Yep. He is so entertaining that you flock to Selhurst every week he plays and fill the place out to capacity.

That's the truth of his abilities - your own fans can't even bother turning up and watching him.

 

[Foolg]

If so then that's absolutely ludicrous.

Ince is a better player, and is going for around a third of that fee. Madness.

Always the way when two old wrinklies get into a bidding war to get one over on the other.

What a waste of money!!!


Manchester United agree £15m deal for Wilfried Zaha - Mirror Online

 

[nicko31]

Really feel for Palace's creditors from a couple of years back, they must be sick as dogs. Oh....hang on isn't one of those creditors us the UK taxpayer?

 

[TrevorDove]

Mate who works at Palarse, told me tonight it's actually a flat fee of £6 million, £4 million add on's (England, appearances, trophies etc) and a 33.3 sell on clause.

Could work out at £15 million over the course of his contract, but alot has to go right for that to happen.

And before you Palarse mowts start saying this is bollox - good on you, keep on deluding yourselves - the truth is going to hurt.

 

[amexee]

This saga has a very whiffy smell around it.

Apparently Palace will only sell if they get Zaha loaned back
Apparently there is a bidding war with Man u and Arsenal

So Arsenal have got 17 million spare that can be spent on a player for next year. Is this the Arsenal whose business plan seems to prevent them from paying to keep top players. The Arsenal who have agreed a 3.5 year deal with walcott for sign on and wages for a figure around 17 million.

I think a far more likely version is:

Only Man Utd will agree any deal that includes a loan back
Palace can either admit that cash will do and have several possible suitors. or take what Man u will offer

The funniest version will be if nothing happens, and with no promotion and huge debts, they accept 2 kitkats and a mars bar in the summer for a sulking Zaha

Very believable.

I was thinking football had truely gone mad with the figures thrown about on this thread.
