Transfer Rumour Zaha with poll

Iwobi coming 40M

 

[Hitchy]

Actually laughing at how many of you have completely ignored the last overpriced winger we bought from Palace.

The only thing Bolasie and Zaha have in common is the fact that they play for/have played for Palace. Zaha is 10x the player Bolasie is and would improve us immensely

If we bid £80m, they'd have asked for £90m. If we bid £90m, they would have asked for £100m.

The Chairman had no intention of letting him leave, gentleman's agreement or not.

So we shouldn’t of bid

 

[Bebeto]

If we sign iwobi zaha is going to go mental with his chairman...do you think he might even go on strike Mahrez style? Or I hope he does and make sure cp is relegated...in fact without zaha, they have no chance of survival right...

So we could of paid the extra for zaha? Makes no sense

Arouna Koné?

Giving Arsenal the money to buy Zaha next summer

He's only got himself to blame really for signing that big contract with no concrete clauses in it, only to be wanting off shortly into it. Van Dijk did similar at southampton, signing a long contract only to want to get away 6 months later. Bin the agent i say, he's plainly been given some very poor advice

Zaha first choice Iwobi fall back option 40M seems rather high

 

[Alan Whittle]

We bid £70m, McCarthy and Cenk Tosun.

McCarthy you bought for alleged £8m-£10m, Cenk Tousun cost us £27m, although in the current market i'd say he's worth about £10m

Ah, yes sorry mate. I think we have paid £3m up front for McCarthy. I agree with you on Tosun, maybe a bit low if anything. Clearly we didn't want Tosun and I'm not sure you bid anything more than £55m. That may turn out to be a good decision long term however frustrating and annoying it seems now.

Palace were never going to sell in my opinion.

Widely rumoured our last bid was £70m and 2 players mate. Your chairman just wasn't going to sell regardless, it's a bit underhanded on his part IMO.

So we’ve chased someone we aren’t getting again
