Zaha to The Gooners for £9m in January?

- Start date
But he didn't go strait to Bolton did he. He left Palace, and was expected to go to Bolton, but people joked about how it would be funny if Bolton didn't take him. It seemed a bit weird.

And you are right most of the fat cat clubs could easily treble Zahas salary, but he is on a lengthy contract and that means he goes on Palaces terms when and if he does leaves. Freedman was different because his contract was up in the summer and as far as anyone knows Palace hadn't come to him to offer a fresh one.

Yeah it did seem to take a while to be fair, but reading between the lines it didn't seem to me that the owners were that fussed he went. I may be totally wrong of course that is just my feeling on it

His agent will dictate when he leaves , a lengthy contract means f*** all once a player wants to go and has been guided by his agent.

You can keep an unhappy player thats for sure . Time will tell how long we have him for , we just make the most of his incredible talent . untill you see him at close quarters you dont realise how skillful he is , he really is a great talent . When we play in december take a close look at him and you will be amazed , you are going arent you ?

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT HE WANTS TO GO?!
In all likelihood, Zaha will be sold in the Summer with our best wishes, and he will leave on good terms with the club and the fans after we an enormous fee.
Unless of course we get promoted, which on current form seems completely possible. If we get lucky and remain injury free, we'll go up. If we buy decent cover in January with the budget Ollie will be given, we'll probably go up. Things look pretty f***ing great for Palace right now

Feck me - you know Palace must be doing well when this bellend has the balls to come on NSC after a two year absence.

No need to shout
Any player with ambition will be off in a shot , quadrupling their wages and bonuses , a massive signing on fee and a percentage of the transfer fee.

because they all do once the money truck pulls up outside. recall, Dougie didnt want to go anywhere. a certain Glenn Murray didnt want to leave. more money offered elsewhere suddenly changes the perspective. some do stay put in football for interests other than cash, but for 90% the money usually overcomes all other obstacles.

That's not very civil is it Phallus/17yearsplus or whatever you call yourself these days. Still as bitter as ever though which always good to see. Utter plank

Is all this rudeness necessary? (From both sides)
Palace are doing fantastically. Zaha may or may not leave in Jan, and if he does it will be for a good sum.

The only problem with a shorter contract is that the clubs know he could leave for free at the end of it. If he's got 2 years left or 5, it doesn't make any difference. It should be on the selling club's terms, but in reality it's never so simple. If a player decides he wants to go, there's only so much a club can do (they should get market rate). Zaha signed a new contract not that long ago, and given that he's better than Palace it wouldn't be surprising if he had clauses in it, and we have no idea what they are.
It does seem that there was some sort of falling out. Dougie was a Palace man, and he'd just started to do really well, so you'd think the board would want that to continue, and give him a new contract and pay-rise. Obviously they're paying IanH more than they were paying Dougie.
Has there been a statement anywhere that Palace did get compensation from Bolton? If Dougie left and later signed for Bolton, I assume they didn't.

I wouldn't advise playing Zaha at left back though.

To be fair SJLM is one of the better Palace fans.
