Transfer Rumour Zaha with poll

[jrj]

When there are championship strikers going for 20m, I'd take him for 65 any day. Think the issue will be Palace wanting it all upfront.

Saw this a few days ago (know he works for the S*n but he seems to have good sources), get the sense that there's a lot moving in the background on this - and both sides are covering each others backs so Palace don't get ripped off for any potential replacement, hence our 'statement'

interesting

If maguire is worth 80m then zaha is worth 65m to us.

It is what it is

Love Island

Was thinking along these lines too, keep it hush and they know we will put down the cash when the time comes, given they get adequate replacements

Would love to see this feller play for us. Imagine if he does and does a Salah making the most of a tap on the foot at Anfield and we score a penalty winner.

One of a very small number of players who can thrill a watching crowd in today's game. He's an entertainer and on that basis alone we should get him.

That’s not actually the most unbelievable thing in the world to be fair. Christ knows if this actually goes on but it makes sense.

Leicester are probably wishing they and United did the same anyway

How much do you think we should pay for him?

38p and a family bag of wotsits

Hmm not great for us as both have players we want who would enable them to sign him

We need to agree s fee with both at the same time, then let them fight it out with each other

Has your account been hacked @davek.

....you see, I have a view that entertainers belong in the circus. I much prefer effective footballers. I’m not saying Zaha can’t be effective, but I admit to not being his biggest fan. Zaha has all the physical ammunition, if Brands/Silva feel they can get him to play with more purpose, then that’s fine.

It's the structure of the payment that we should be prepared to give way on. If more were offered up front then I'm sure the price wouldn't get beyond £60M

 

[PhilEFC]

I’m quite scared at all this spending.

Reminds me of when my missus goes shopping with the joint account card.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Don’t wanna be a little biff but if we get him for 65, and Zouma for 35, what are we looking like for FFP? Can’t be arsed with chelsea/barca/atletico style bans
