    Has told Palace he wants to leave apparently. Might be time and actually might help Palace as they are so reliant on him that if he was sold they could probably buy 2 or 3 players

    True but what would they do with the ice rink?

    £30m, tempting. Might make a cheeky bid.

    Hazard’s replacement. Oh no wait, they can’t sign anyone.

    Will end up at Arsenal, back at Man Utd, or potentially Tottenham. If not those clubs, definitely to another club.

    He strikes me as the kind of lad who really needs the right manager.

    Klopp, Poch & Javi would be good for him.

    The sight of Harry Hornet at Colney might just spook him, though.

    I don't think Zaha would come here unless Harry the Hornet was sacked. I'd rather stick with Harry.

    He's quite talented (when not diving) but a £40m bid rejected????... The world's gone mad(der).

    If Zaha does go I fancy the Nigel’s to go down. They will have money to spend but it is not easy to bring in quality and integrate them straight away.

    If they get say £60m for him, that will be over £100m for Hodgson to potentially spend.

    Yet somehow, they will still have McArthur, Wickham and Scott Dann playing for them next season.

    Maybe a swap - Harry for Zaha and £20m would be about right

    I don't think we'd get £20m for H The H would we?

    I was outraged at your apparent dissing of Harry until the penny dropped!

    I can't see him going to another prem club unless it's manu. Only man city, spurs or man utd could probably afford him and he's not good enough for city or spurs.

    He'd be an improvement for most of the rest of the league but no one can afford him.

    Manu could get him cheaper as would negate the 25% sell on they'll get.

    So many or nothing I think.

    Palace will have a lot of money, but they’ll never be able to attract the type of quality player as the ones they would selling. They’ll be much worse off as a team.

    If Zaha does go I think they’ll be next season’s surprise relegation contender. Along with Newcastle.

    Agreed. Although I’m not sure it will be a surprise in either of their cases.

    Palace already being linked with Carl Jenkinson as a AWB replacement.

    Carl Jenkinson is the type of player you'd find on Football Manager running a Player Search of transfer-listed right backs

    I thought he was a conductor and was married to Mrs Boswell from 'Bread'?

    Nonsense.

    Carl Jenkinson was.one of those who bullied Billy Bunter when he first arrived at Greyfriars.

    Not much of a zaha but got to think arsenal's open pursuit of the player plus a derisory 40m offer is poor form

    They seldom seem to invest wisely.

    In short, they spaff.
