Popular Post Babylon Posted 13 August Popular Post Share Posted 13 August 9 minutes ago, Mike1983 said: Tbf this largely seems to be the opinion amongst Crystal palace fans, judging from their forum they didn’t want him back either. Palace are an established premier league team, who had the best years of Zaha. There really is little need to them to take a risk on him and then potentially ruin what they had. I'm not expecting the Zaha of three or four years ago, but the simple matter is we don't have the wiggle room to make lots of cash signings, the squad is thin and we are reaching the start of the season. I think people expecting him to keep us up are pushing it, but I think all things considered, it's worth a punt for a season if we've already exhausted some other avenues / first choices. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Cottee was past his prime but still did a decent job, you never know. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Happy Fox Posted 13 August Popular Post Share Posted 13 August Zaha is a premier league standard player and can perform at this level. We need players that can easily slot into the first team and have an impact he is one of them most definitely. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox1norfolk Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August I think the Zaha story is probably fake news created to fix some financial deals the Greek club is planning. A wild goose chase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pengarox Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August (edited) 1 hour ago, st albans fox said: we won’t buy him He’ll be back in Istanbul next summer you’d better hope he does ok with us and then you might be able to move him onto Saudi Well hope so, but he has too much ego to play there. He still thinks he's the superstar of Galatasaray, but he has become our third option for left winger with 8m salary. He had enough chances last season, but after 20 games, no one was expecting anything from him. Hopefully that will change at Leicester. He does have ambition, but he doesn't have the prime Zaha skills anymore. Edited 13 August by Pengarox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to come back to England and prove he still has the ability and we are the only option If he comes, he improves the starting 11. He'd be our best option in the any of our attacking positions, except the 9 when Vards is on his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FosseSpark Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August I think just having Zaha will give us a foothold in some games against lower hald prem teams. he's a man that needs marking as he can score great goals or create chances on his own. £8m for a strong option makes complete sense to me.

Wycombe Fox Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August There really is some poor journalism about nowadays. I read an article online earlier stating that it was between us and Palace for Zaha but then it finished by saying that Steve Cooper would be hoping to get him into our starting line-up in time for our season's opener against Brentford on Sunday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_lcfc Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August 16 minutes ago, Long Eaton Fox said: All gone a bit quiet on the transfer front If the ones we're pushing for are good players and back themselves - You'd think they'd hang on a bit before committing to a newly promoted side with a looming points deduction. Wouldn't blame them waiting to see if a better offer comes in. Having said that you'd also think they'd want to get themselves sorted as quickly as possible for the new season, so who really knows!
