Cant win with Palace, they don't want anyone's cast offs... but they are Palace so they arn't going to get anyone's best players.

What exactly do these people want ffs
Zaha to them is probably the difference between lower mid-table and a serious relegation scrap.

I don’t think he’s worth anything near £65 mil, but can’t blame them for trying to squeeze the most they can out for him, he is that important to them.

Could backfire if they don’t leave themselves enough time to actually spend the money though!

He is to palace. As you said if they become embroiled in a relegation scrap (which will be likely should he leave) relegation would cost them 150m
 

That’s the point I was trying to make (poorly)

Obviously part of it is the reduced risk-factor given that he’s tried and tested in this league.
Exactly. You pay a premium for players who are tried and tested in the premier league, allied to zaha’s importance to palace, you can see why they value him so much.
 
Not sure about this, the price is mad if what's reported is correct. I don't think he's that good at football to justify the price. Hope money isn't wasted.
 
Arsenal are paying Pepe's fee over the course of the contract - circa £14m per season.

So if we're willing to pay say, £50m of a £65m fee total up front, it puts us well clear of doing what Arsenal were wanting to do with Zaha (which was pay in instalments over the length of the deal).

One of the biggest mysteries in life is why Arsenal seem perpetually skint. It's proper weird.
