Transfer Rumour Zaha with poll

[GwladysPhil]

Yes. We're not in a great place with an unhappy Wilf. Cue another new contract, this time with a release clause. Wilf knuckles down for a year and off next summer. Almost certainly for a more realistic figure and possibly in part exchange for players we actually want.

Us and Arsenal haven't helped but he's really not going to be motivated.

He will get a pay rise though, more fool to Parish and co.

Watch him smash us everywhere on Saturday and then never play for palace again.

 

[Hitchy]

Off to Chelsea next summer then I’d imagine

Hopefully we smash them and he gets more annoyed of what he could have been a part of.

Should of paid the 80 mill I mean why bid 70? We won’t sign him now, and it would of made a statement it’s always ifs but maybes as ever

I don't know that he will. He's already on more than anyone in our club.

Personally not too bothered about missing out on him. In the cold light of day, we just nearly bought a palace player for close to 80 mil (if reports are to be believed).

If this story had come out when the window opened, everyone would say it is crazy.

Come January, we will hopefully have our sights set higher.

Stuck now, transfer request in but now clubs passing on it inc' us so only way out is abroad. CP backed themselves in to this corner with an unhappy player.

From a palace perspective what would be the point in selling your best player, even for a world record fee, if you know you cant replace him and run the risk of being in a relegation scrap? They had no time left in the window, dont think it would have mattered if we offered 80million straight cash, they'd be stupid to accept imo.

He was involved in a quarter of all their goals last season, it's just self preservation on their part. If it was the other way round and spurs or someone came in for richarlison today with a 100m pound bid or whatever we'd all be raging if we let him go, and weve got a far better squad than palace. Nobody can afford to lose their best players, especially on deadline day. It's all a bit of a farce imo.

A good point. Does it really benefit Palace though to have an unhappy player on their hands? Genuinely asking.

Thats if he agrees to play. His value will drop come January.

 

[polish]

Massive massive dissappointment.

 

[Davidoff]

Looks like we’ve gone and tried to make a real statement of intent with this - and not had the steel/desire/financial muscle to see it through. I think that’s why it feels so disappointing

 

[nikom court]

cant see him playing saturday,so thats a bonus!
