Zaha is a shithouse on the pitch but gives back to the community off the pitch. If he signs for us your second paragraph is my point of reference, if he doesn’t then that’s confirmation of the first part of your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather us take a punt on upcoming talent with longer potential upside such as Jackson from Villareal. This isn't true at all though. He's been excellent this season.

sne Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Zaha is on £130k/w apparently. How much do we think he'll be asking for his last big payday contract? £200k/w? He might settle for £150k/w if a team throws in an extra year and give him a 4 year contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 My verdict on Saha, he's not a player I would have wished for without a link because of his age, but also he's not a player I would complain about if we signed, as he's almost guaranteed to bring goals and assists, he's not reliant on pace either, so probably still good for another two or three maybe four seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t go for Saha to be honest especially since he’s retired and 44 yrs old. I think there are better options for striker if we are looking for one.

I’m not sure that should be us though, while I think he’s a good talent I’m hoping they can take a different route in terms of age and value for money.

Jonesy7211 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 If we do sign Zaha I'd worry for the future of Digne. Zaha isn't exactly known for tracking back and Digne's strengths aren't really as a defensive full back. I don't think you could play both on the left at the same time without leaving defensive holes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was 30 and could land a relatively "soft" big contract in Spain or Ligue 1, I'd give B6 a skip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there big pay days available now in Europe, the big money is here in the PL aside from a few. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He ain't good enough for Real and Barca are broke. PSG have a pretty decent attack already. Maybe one of the big Serie A clubs would go for him, they seen to rate PL players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Maybe I’m in the minority but I’d love Zaha here. I hate the kid when we play against them and we don’t have enough of those players. He’d immediately be our best attacker imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted November 21, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2022 Zaha is quality and is the player I wanted us to sign to replace Jack. His age isn't ideal now and we would have to give him a deal up to the age of 34, but he'd definitely aid us in the next couple of years getting us European football.
