[Albion] Zaha

[Icy Gull]

I never suggested otherwise, my point is that he loves Palace and is no fan of Brighton, he wouldn't want to come here. And if he did, he wouldn't bust a gut for us. He's skillful but has an attitude problem. He failed at Manure and then failed at Cardiff before going back to Palace. I wouldn't want him here.

I would love it if he came here just for the meltdown at Palace.

Goes to show how clueless Hodgson has become in his dotage. The latest "missed trick" was not playing Zaha up against Bruno. Not only might the cheating scums pace been a problem for, I believe, the oldest outfield player in the PL, it would also have negated Bruno getting forward so often and so effectively.

Let's all rejoice that the scum have employed another crap manager!

Ok, this is controversial, but ..... I'd love to sign him when they go down.

He does let it get to him when he's being marked out of the game, he can resort to just trying to win free kicks and moaning at refs, but boy has the guy got some talent.

I'd rather cut my left bollock off than sign that cheating c*nt

Well yeah, that's a fair point. He wouldn't come though.

His limited talent shines through due to the fact that he is playing in a poor team, where he is the star. Put him in a top 6 side with better players around him, and he won't stand out as much.

I felt that on Tuesday night, there had been clear pre match instructions not to get too close to Zaha inside the box to give him any opportunity to go down for a penalty, instead relying on crowding him out, or using the good old fashioned shoulder to shoulder challenge.

He also faded as the game went on, and when the ball was lost just stood still, no doubt in disbelief that someone had actually got the ball off him.

Regardless of being rivals I wouldn't want Zaha coming to the Amex, as I believe he would knock the team togetherness, plus he is over rated and over paid.

 

[Gritt23]

But he is recorded as saying he hates us 11 out of 10 so hardly likely.

Yeah, I know. Didn't say that I think it will happen, just that he would be a good addition for us.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

What surprised me on Tuesday night, was that for most of the first half at least, Zaha was playing in a central striker's position, whilst Benteke was out wide. I can well remember Zaha terriorizing Bruno in that play off semi final a few seasons ago, so I'm amazed that he didn't start off on the left wing from the start.

Fair enough, but a stiff breeze and he would be in Crawley.

Zaha sees Dunk looming......

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Every time he got into our box I crapped my knickers thinking, here comes a penalty. One of the best things about their relegation would be them having to sell him.

 

[Se20]

As if he'll sign for you lot !

 

[Mellotron]

I think he's a weird mixture of utterly terrifying legwork and moments of EXTREME shitness.

Also, he never, ever, ever, ever, ever finishes a move without falling over. Ever. Not even always diving. His balance is horrendous.

 

[Mellotron]

His trickery of foot is something I can’t recall any other current Premier League player having, with the possible exception of Bolasie.

He seems to have little control over said legs a lot of the time though. I'm not convinced more than 50% of it is genuine. His balance is awful, endlessly falling over, often with no players nearby.

And as if by magic ....da da

I have seen many Palace fans on twitter stating:

Dunk should have been sent off for 2 bookable challenges on Zaha
Izquierdo should have been booked (was it a 2nd) for that challenge in front of the West Stand
Zaha should have had 2 penalties for challenges by Duffy & Dunk

It would appear that in their eyes, every time he falls over it's definitely a foul by the other player AND it's a booking.

Don’t think Bruno played.

Wasn’t it Calderon and Wayne Bridge?

I’m sure you’re right, it’s almost like a striker leading you to promotion out of league 1 and then signing for your rivals......... oh

Seriously though, think he’ll leave you in January then you’ll be down. Thought the rest didn’t have the heart or ability Tuesday, which surprised me because on paper......

Don't know if this has been answered yet apologies if so, Bruno missed both semi final legs due to injury, think Cauldi played there?

Of course he won't, I'd imagine he'll end up at either Stoke or West Brom.
