Also, Mahrez hadn't previously been at a top 6 club, and failed due to having a poor attitude.Jordan says that should you ask Zaha whether he's as good a player as Mahrez, he would say he was. He then says that Palace should demand just as much money for him, not accept less just because they're Palace.
He has less goals per PL game and less assists per PL game than Mahrez did when he left Leicester, he hasn't been PL Player's player of the year, he has never been selected for the PFA team of the year, he hasn't been a key player in a 1500-1 title win, he doesn't have the 40+ international caps that Mahrez had when he was sold, he is not wanted by the Champions, nor even by any team in the Champions League. The only stat where he outdoes Mahrez is the number of times he has been booked for diving. In that he has no peer.
Palace didn't demand the £60 million that Man City paid Leicester after a year long pursuit, they said that they wouldn't sell him for less than £100 million: a full £20 million more than the highest transfer fee ever paid for a player to move between two English clubs.
If Zaha does believe 'every day and twice on Sunday' that he is as good a player as Mahrez, this would make him just as big an idiot as Simon Jordan is for saying this, and nearly half the idiot that Steve Parish is for thinking that his club's interests are best served by trying to turn a player who wants away into some kind of indentured Matt Le Tissier.
There there. I know it was dark in Solly’s pocket, but you’re not in there now.

Wonder how much of those 'add-ons' he has actually earned for Liverpool
If it's based on appearances or staying in the league, it'll be plenty. If it's based on goals, it'll be zero.My gut feeling is ZERO.
They've got the 'start poorly, change manager, turn things around' tactic down to an art. They'll be fine.
UnbelievableWait! What?
The Holmesdale Fanatics got season ticket holders kicked out of their seats, insisting that they alone were true fans making an atmosphere, but didn't bother going to an away game, because they couldn't get the seats that they wanted?

I love the Parish apologists on that thread, their head is buried in the sand so much they can't see it's Parish's fault they are in the sh1t, after all, he signed off all the deals.Wow. That's superb. [emoji23]

...the tragically-haired leech.
The apologists continue to back Parish, because rightly or wrongly, they see him as a Dick Knight figure, responsible for riding to the rescue when they were in grave danger.
The differences of course, are that Dick Kinght's rescue plan didn't shaft a load of creditors including local schools, charities or the ambulance service, and that Dick Knight didn't take a ****ing massive salary out of the club every year.
Amazing blindspot they have to the tragically-haired leech.
I'm going to have to get another shower as I've just delved into that cesspit of a forum. But my word, it's funny. Thread after thread of doom and infighting. It's no wonder the GOONS like spending time on here instead.I love the Parish apologists on that thread, their head is buried in the sand so much they can't see it's Parish's fault they are in the sh1t, after all, he signed off all the deals.

I thought they just turned up to away games and kicked people out of the seats they have. Isn't that what happened at the Amex on 'that' evening? Fairly sure I read complaints they turned up and told people they had to move because they wanted to be behind the goal.
