You give Wilf space and he destroys teams, like against Liverpool. The problem is not Wilf, it is our lack of other attacking threat. Put Wilf in a top team and he will only have one person marking him and when you consider he can sometimes waltz through three defenders I think it says it all. I don't like it when he seems to get on his teammates backs, but I think it is genuine frustration that we're not doing better. I think some fans seriously undervalue Zaha. Mind you, there were fans a few years back saying they'd be happy for him to leave for 10/15m!!

I can't see him moving to Germany, or any other country, but it all comes down to his ambition in the end. If he is determined to play CL football then he will eventually have to leave, but if he just wants to play PL football with his home town club, then maybe this is enough (the money surely is).

If we do sell him then I want to know who these two players are that will get 15 goals and 15 assists when you consider Eriksen, Salah and Mahrez only got 10 assists each last season, and outside of Jamie Vardy no team outside the top 6 had a player with more than 12 goals (Luka had 10 and Wilf had 9 btw).

I think AWB is the one more likely to leave and he should command a sizeable fee in excess of £25 million (I don't want him to go either, but the lad is definitely going places).

He is not worth anything near 70m. Especially on this seasons form. 50-60 max. No one will pay 70m+ for him. 50m is an insanely good return for an inconsistent player with average to below average goals and assists.

Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

In a recent game many fans were complaining about Zaha's performance. I saw the highlights on MOTM and everything good involved Zaha. Even on a off day Zaha is still our best player.

If he does want to go we should let him as long as it is early in the summer window and for a good fee.

One more point

I' be gutted if he went - best player for us by a mile.

I still think he's worth keeping and wouldn't sell for less than 70m if he really wanted to go.

Genuinely difficult to form a clear opinion on this. On one hand I certainly wouldn't begrudge him a move and feel that it's needed for him to kick on in his career. Would be genuinely intrigued to see how damaging he could be playing for a huge side.

On the other hand I simply don't trust us to replace him and he leaves a huge hole in our team. The fact that he allegedly half the fee would go to United means we're looking at 25-35m max which certainly doesn't go as far as it used to and I doubt it will all go back into transfers anyway.

I'd hope that we'd buy a couple of young wingers from the Championship/overseas with the potential to grow rather than spunking loads on an established winger who might flop.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

Wilf commands respect in whichever move he decides upon or not, lack of goals is a consequence of creativity within the team generally although the team has got better technically as has Wilf this season. With Dortmund they have many technical players thats why they are 6 points ahead of Bayern and top of the Bundesliga having scored 45 goals.

This transfer rumour if true must be tempting for Wilf the question is to coin a phrase "home or away", which might be the decider does he for go all of what he has in the UK or take a chance abroad we will see.

My opinion is go for it , its his life , he has done a great deal for the Palace and owes us nothing but leaves with a potential golden goodbye of say 35 mil our halve of any transfer if 70 mil was agreed transfer figure
