I'm sure people said the same when we stopped Stones going to Chelsea that season

Palace are protecting their own interests at the end of the day
From a palace perspective what would be the point in selling your best player, even for a world record fee, if you know you cant replace him and run the risk of being in a relegation scrap? They had no time left in the window, dont think it would have mattered if we offered 80million straight cash, they'd be stupid to accept imo.

He was involved in a quarter of all their goals last season, it's just self preservation on their part. If it was the other way round and spurs or someone came in for richarlison today with a 100m pound bid or whatever we'd all be raging if we let him go, and weve got a far better squad than palace. Nobody can afford to lose their best players, especially on deadline day. It's all a bit of a farce imo.
 

Silver lining here.. when we next play Palace and Zaha is in the team he is absolutely nailed on to score against us. Put a bit of money down on it and you can win some beer money to drown your sorrows

Exactly

There would have been carnage if they let him go with, what, just over 90 minutes to go in the window and no replacement in sight?
