On this performance , Buckley has to be worth at least £20M.

Hmm...
I'd take Buckley over Zaha on present showing.
Buckley - extreme pace, touches of sheer class, beats a man well 'direct', finishing has been just top drawer since we signed him.
Zaha - obviously a good player, very tricksy (effectively too a lot of the time) and a LITTLE BIT more end product than Noone imo (trying to be fair)
But not worth 10m (ridiculous, fawning assessment) and I'd take SWB. 76 games and six goals? Is that starts? Doesn't compare favourably does it.
Definitely want to add my voice to the 'let's not get cocky' voice of reason tho... Crossing my fingers for a win but in all fairness we are very close in terms of squad ability and it could go either way... Anything less than a win for us awards them bragging rights for the season...
STILL - either way next week, it has been FUN so far. Non-stop snide bickering all season! Thrills, spills, Clyne transfer deals! Who'd ask for more?

Zaha looked threatening tonight. Not premier league standard yet, but maybe in the dev squad of a Wigan/West Brom team looking to push for a first team place in a year or two. I thought Webb was being totally out of order the whole game he should have won at least three clear cut fouls and got at least two yellows for Cardiff players.

We're f'ing brilliant
Speroni is probably the best keeper in this league!

Zaha has just turned 18, he's a boy amongst big bruisers. He has come on so much in the past year, but he must improve on the end product.
He wont go to Bolton, he's destined for bigger things than that.

It's all about the bikes
His tendency for rash challenges in retaliation if having the ball stolen away needs to be removed from his game. Needs to improve that end product, as you say, too. Apart from that he looks quite handy. Possibly a little too predictable though. Probably go to a mid prem team for about 6m.

He's up there but for me, NOTHING in this division in terms of keepers compares to Kasper Schmiechel

A friend of mine who scouts the football league for Man Utd told me this week that they were actually quite interested in Zaha until they realised that he is too lightweight physically and mentally for their needs... made comparison with C. Ronaldo and Nani...
Bolton seems about right, or maybe Wigan.

Reminds me of kids like Remi Moses and Fabian Delph - very very good indeed but not quite able to cope when they step up

I make you right on the Wigan call - most of Palaces so called superstars end up at Wigan warming the bench - Moses & Watson. What became of Bostock ?

Couldn't have put it better myself.
I think the reason that Zaha is so well thought of is due to his age. There really aren't many players his age showing the talent he has in the Championship. And as much as I would love it to happen(preferably this window) he will not go to Bolton

I think it would do him wonders to stay in the Championship for another few years, but despite the players themselves knowing this how many of them can actually resist the lure of the premiership and its wages when they come calling.
