[Football] The "Where will Zaha go?" Summer 2018 thread

[Easy 10]

Without him they are in my three to drop this coming season

-Leicester
-Carduff
-South London Comedy Collective

not necessarily in that order.

No chance of Leicester going down (unfortunately). There'll easily be 3 teams worse than them this season.

My early picks would be Cardiff, Watford and Huddersfield. But a Zaha-less CPFC2010 would be MORE than capable of gatecrashing that party.

Even if zaha stays doesn't seem like he wants to be there anymore so win-win.

There's not a hope in hell of Everton signing him. They simply can't afford him. If Everton spend £60m+ on a player and then pay him >£120k per week then football is well and truly dead. Wilf will believe himself ready for Champions League football and likely won't bother signing for Everton who are likely to finish in a similar position to us anyway.

Dortmund or Spurs are possibilties but Levy isn't going to like the asking price, and Dortmund don't have PL money to splash around.

Are you taking the piss? They have loads of money unlike you lot who go splashing the cash paying ridiculous wages.. you are the most deluded fans in football.

Zaha and Palarse are a very good fit a perfect pantomime character who epitomises everything we dislike about them up the road.

For that reason, I hope he stays and runs his contract out and goes for nothing, the perfect end to a beautiful relationship.....

They are, how can they not clearly see that Everton are a much bigger club than them and a move there would be a massive step up for Zaha?

Everton’s expectations of European football are fully justified, whilst those clowns up the road try to big themselves up every season that it is attainable for their shambolic club. It does give us good entertainment watching it crash and burn every season though.

He could be the difference between 7th and 6th for them, especially with Arsenal in a bit of a transitional period. He might be worth the gamble. I guess they'd offer Bolasie in part exchange, which would soften the blow for the Palace fans.

I don't get the asking price to be honest.

As good as Zaha is, and he is very good, how can he be worth more than Mahrez…. who has far more end product and was footballer of the year a couple of years ago in a title winning side.

I know the market is mad but if Mahrez went for 60 ?... then Wilf should be no more than 45 … which is still incredible money.

Contract length, possibly?

From a quick search, Mahrez had 2 years left on his deal at Leicester, whilst Zaha still has 4 years to go.

News just in....

The gravity whore has rejected a new contract

He's on his way
He's on his way
Wilfried Zaha
He's on his way
Where's he going, I don't know
Where's he going, I don't care
All I know is Zaha's on his way

Aside from that, isn't it quite breathtaking how they casually drop Wilfs name in alongside Messi and Ronaldo. And they call US delusional.

Mind you, they were regularly insisting to anyone that would listen that Jonny Williams was better than Zidane, so its par for the course with the goonsquad.

It's ok, Zaha is still the 3rd best player in the world. They'll just stop mentioning Messi now and stick Mbappe in there instead from now on.

 

[Bozza]

He's just too good for you (Crystal Palace)...

 

[LlcoolJ]

Yeah, Everton paying a load of money for a player would be the death of football. Forget the billionaire owner and all of that, it's a sad state of affairs.

Whereas a club that went into admin six years prior (for the second time in just more than a decade) spending £30 million on some shit striker and continuing to pay him more than £120k a week is fine.

It's amazing how completely myopic Palace fans are isn't it. Staggering levels of willful stupidity required to write that post. [emoji23]

 

[nicko31]

It does look like Zaha has saved Palace from their 3rd administration in 20 years. The Nigels do owe a lot to him

 

[Marshy]

damn it would be even better if he went abroad

And miss out on the timeline where he scores the goal that relegates them!? I'd much rather he stayed in England.

For the money they want I can't see it being anywhere other than England... I expect Chelsea, Spurs or Arsenal .. just cant see him going from London

Chelsea are going to be swimming in cash once Hazard goes to Real. Got to be the most likely.

It would be nice if Zaha could drag this out over the full 3 weeks that remain of the transfer window, thereby souring the pre-season atmosphere in the Palace camp whilst squeezing the opportunity for Palace to replace him.
