We don’t give 5 year contracts for no reason Agreed, although of course we may just be protecting the asset. Certainly his development into a player good enough for our team is not to be presumed. That said, he's done well and scored goals on his loan. He's on a 1 in 3 goals to games ratio having played every week more or less, whereas most of our young loan players achieve little or nothing when they get games in adult football.

Whilst we need to get some bodies in, I can’t see us spending 100m. I also doubt we’ll sell this window, unless the offers are ridiculous. But I don’t think anyone has been playing well enough to get a ridiculous offer. We’ve shown that we can be fairly shrewd, and broadly, a c.20m player goes straight into the first team (CD, JA, MG) and a c.10m player is a squad player to grow into the first team or deputise for he odd game (CR, NA) I reckon we’ll do: Lokonga c.20mll We already have another young midfielder in Ahamada. And (don't laugh) we stil have Ferguson on our books and he completed 45 mins without mishap I believe. If Ferguson does recover and stays fit, he's both an RB and a CB. We then have to dig up a really good young striker who nobody's ever heard of. Dougie, you can do it!

There never was any such bid. Rumour of an interest from Everton and Arsenal, nothing more. Then Arsenal spent £72m on Zaha's compatriot, Pepe, ha ha, work that one out. The rumours at the time were that the selling club were happy to let Arsenal pay for Pepe over 5 years whereas we were hungry for the cash

In my opinion for what it’s worth , I can’t see him staying in England if he does leave , I think he’ll go abroad

The Mail, not the most reliable source, is reporting that Zaha has been offered a new deal at Palace worth £200,000 per week.
