Very good point and we have also been linked with McCarthy since Jesus was a boy.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle Originally posted by kevlee If Parrish is the businessman he claims to be he would only let his best employee leave if he could get someone in to replace him and at this stage that isn’t going to happen. If he sells him then the company can repay the directors loans back but ultimately the company will suffer in the short term. Players must view palace as no money and no ambition. This deal with the Americans is a disaster. You need money to say in the EPL and we don’t have it. If we sell Wilfred without a comparable replacement it’s going to be a season that starts with a massive negative and will be difficult to climb out of because we have 2 strikers who can’t score and our playmaker gone. It just won’t make sense. None of us know what is really going on but it does all point to the need to get hold of £100m asap to pay them off and then start again whilst in the meantime shopping in the bargain basement to try and keep us up. I have always been a staunch supporter of SP but this is beginning to be a farcical to be honest. This way forward may pay the loans but will ultimately send us down and mean we have to start all over again from the Championship which as such would mean that even though these Prem. years have been fun that we will not ultimately have moved the club forwards. Luka and the like will not sign and so they will go and so the ball keeps rolling down rather than up the slope!

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle Originally posted by Moise_Toffee Morning gents, Toffee in peace here. As it looks increasingly likely that Zaha will be coming to Merseyside on a cash plus player deal, who from our current squad (who are up for grabs) do you think will benefit your team? Edited by Moise_Toffee (06 Aug 2019 9.35am) It is fair to say that if you get Wilf you are getting one hell of a player but we fans don't want Everton cast offs who can't get in their Team as part of the deal. Sadly - our owners may not see it that way as we are hearing that cash is King at Selhurst right now. Good luck for the season but hopefully without Wilf and not this Saturday!

And don't worry, we'll take good care of them with bumper contracts.

Edited by Willo (06 Aug 2019 9.44am) I'm now more fearful of keeping Zaha for the good of Palace from a risk analysis viewpoint. If we keep Zaha, I worry that every other team will have noted the Watford "blueprint" of how to kick the cr*p out of & nullify him. More teams will try, & whilst he's at Palace he's our sole main focal point, so he'll be even more targeted than in a better team - & sooner or later he could get badly injured as a result. In which case we have no Zaha, no money, no Tosun - & THAT really would be disastrous. I also wonder if last season has impacted mentally the same sort of thoughts in Wilf's mind.

If true that they are almost doubling his wages, it isn't greed but common sense that would make him want to go there. Not that we know if there is any truth in the romour anyway.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle Why is there an f-ing love in for Everton on here? Those of you praising Everton are neither Palace fans nor football fans as far as I’m concerned. Everton are a better team then Palace, but not even in the top six in this country. I will be absolutely shocked if they achieve anything this year and there is no evidence to prove otherwise. A few trying to praise their team on paper need their heads checked, Richarlison is s***, Kean is untested and Zaha has only ever performed at Palace. Even then that is nowhere near a front three of Aubameyang, Lacazette and Pepe for Arsenal, probably the worst of the top six teams. Their defence is awful and midfield mediocre. Zaha may as well play in the PL for Palace and achieve nothing. If he wants to play in Europe or win trophies by all means I’ll be pleased for him but a move to Everton will be extremely insulting to those of us who have supported him for so long. Don’t even try to make excuses that this is for footballing reasons you’re embarrassing yourselves Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!
