Zaha

That's what I meant. They were comparable signings then to Zaha now - tailsmen for bottom half teams who cost big money (IIRC Sinton was about £3m, Fox over £4m; which was a lot in those days)

Saudi Sportswashing Machine were better than us at the time (about the only 6/7 year period in their history!)

- next will come comparisons to several players who have nothing in common with each other let alone with Zaha himself...

For me he's just a Wanchope. He's a chaotic player who can create in an setup where there's no co-ordinated attacking strategy. I don't think he'd be any good given the limited time and space we are afforded by bus parking sides

Zaha is simply not worth the money ..

He's basically 2 years older than Harry Kane and since the 2013/14 season as a striker has scored the same amount of goals as fudging Lamela (who was unfit/injured for a lot of that time), so lets even not talk about his record against Eriksen, Dele, Son, Lucas

I'm must be crazy to be making the same point as GB .. but what is the fascination here?

If we were talking about a 15-20M punt, maybe .. but for the money CP will ask .. move along ...

Is the fascination not in part due to Poch supposedly being very interested in him?
I can’t honestly recall fact from fiction in previous windows but didn’t we make at least serious enquiries, if not firm offers to Palace for him?
And current rumours are that Poch is targeting him or Martial this season.

Unless Zaha agitates for a move, Palace are going to make it very unattractive for buying clubs.

I think his agent was just very effective at planting the right things to get him a bumper new contract.

Ask Poch, he is the one who made a bid a couple of years ago.....when Zaha really was average
 
PALACE TO HAND ZAHA NEW DEAL

The 25-year-old is currently contracted to the Eagles until the summer of 2022.

Personally I rate the player a lot. But what I think is irrelevant, what matters is whether Poch rates him and wants him. If Poch wants him I hope we get him, if Poch does not want him then I am perfectly fine with that.

To be fair even if you were not perfectly fine with that it wouldn't matter to Poch
