Murray was the one not Gayle that he stupidly refused to play and let go, Gayle was too easily wound up by defenders in this league, Murray gets stuck in and doesn't care about that and knows exactly where to be in the box and even today if with us and all the chaos created by Zaha and Townsend would be banging them in and we wouldn't have needed Benteke! ..Pardew was an egotistical nutter and cost this club an absolute fortune in wasted finances.
Wan-Bisaka is not going to win anything playing for us is he so no surprise there.

Agree with all this, sadly.

Yep we all know he should... but he plays for Palace... That's why he's not in it.

 


Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

A legend in the making this guy! said today that palace is where he will be next season . I reckon his statement has disappointed a lot of clubs , only 15k a week though . Give the man a pay rise Stevie . Can the club sell him without his permission ?

 


oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton.

Excellent news one more season with us and if he wants to go after that then fair enough.

In the old days the players would have to accept any decision or be faced being left out of the usual first 11, training with the reserves or kids etc. Clubs can’t afford to do that now and there’s risk tobthe value of their asset. In this case his asset value is likely to increase as he learns more, as long as he doesn’t get injured. In the case of Wilf I see his value dropping at some point in the near future.

I don’t see many of our players objecting to moving to a bigger club anyway and nowadays the money in the next contract makes most of the decision for them. Maybe not in AWB’s case at this age but it ends up being true.

Defo need to keep AWB

 

ASCPFC Flag Pro-Cathedral/caravan park 16 May 19 3.19pm

Not named in England preliminary squad despite being Europe's top tackler. I'm not really seeing what plenty of players have done to deserve their places.
Redmond in particular is uninspiring - let alone Walker, Chilwell, Trippier, Rice, Rose, Stones and Wilson. Frankly sounds like a Burnley side of the future.

As much talk as there is about Zaha, I view it as more likely that we lose AWB. For Man U (or Arsenal) who are in dire need of a good right back, paying 50mm for a 21 year old, who will (hopefully) be your right back for 10 years - that may be a good price. Plus his wages are probably reasonable (for now).

For Zaha, yes, he's 26, and in his prime, and he's more proven, but paying 80 - 100 million is a lot of money, and you probably have 4 good years. Plus he's going to want more wages when he signs with them.

I know wingers are more valuable than right backs, but I think AWB is going and Zaha is staying.

 

Omph Flag Liverpool 22 May 19 10.43am

You’re right that AWB is more marketable but by the same token that makes it more likely that Parish will hold out for something extortionate - his value is only going to appreciate.

I saw 60 mill mentioned. That feels more like next years price than this but that is a reasonable position to take when there’s no need to sell. Could someone be in at that price? I’m dubious.

If reports have any substance, then Man Utd are preparing a £25m bid.

In todays market I don't think that's nearly enough.

I think Palace will sell for the right price, but I think joining Utd given where they are at the moment would be a huge risk for the player.

Any transfer of AWB to Utd should include the cancellation of Wilfs sell on fee to them.

And £25 mil is derisory with the Zaha sell on fee cancelled.

What if Wilf gets crocked or nobody buys him, or not until later in his career when he isn’t worth as much?

We've got to hold on to AWB for as long as possible. £50 million for a young and relatively inexperienced player is a lot, but he'll be worth up to triple that in five years.

Oh undoubtedly, we should be pushing for closer to £50m with performance based clauses, like international appearances etc. plus the cancellation.

The main thing is to make sure that at the end of the day, should we chose to sell Zaha, it's on our terms and for all the fee. You almost wouuldn't begrudge United some sort of fee if they'd added anything to his development but it's been us that's had to rebuild him from his time there.

150 million quid for a defender.

Good grief.

Honestly if United came in at 50 mil I would sell the lad, he is a fantastic prospect but there is no way we can keep him for 5 more years.

That should mean we can play hard ball on Zaha and keep him at Palace for many years to come.

 


Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha.

Tipp_Eagle Flag Tipperary 22 May 19 5.12pm

f*** off united , he is better than any defender they have on their books .

gregski 22 May 19 5.30pm

Well, that's precisely the reason they want to buy him!
