But anyway, back to Zaha. That's mentioning £30m plus £15m add ons and a clause. That's miles off the £70m we were hearing earlier but I believe an ITK said the real fee would be lower? I may be wrong.

Maybe Aurier is going to Palace to link up with Zaha, we have been fooled by agent Aurier!!

No but I would like this deal to be done, would add another element to our attack and its a player I think Poch can improve, he is good but still bags of potential for me.

I read it as 45 mil plus 15 in add ons. Probably a fair deal all things considered. 30 was what Chelsea offered plus Drinkwater, all falls in line with what ITK told us today. Only part that is unnerving is Lucas & Serge.

Not sure what people expected, we were told it was the same source that rose did the interview with last summer and they've embellished slightly with the moura/aurier stuff. it's the sun the best you can hope for is a 50% credible piece.

I wouldn't call Aurier leaving unnerving. KWP can step up but yeah, I don't buy it or the Moura part.

Pretty much everything that Pablo said is in the article, so one must assume there's at least something in it

I read it as £45 rising to £60m with add ons. Sell on fee does not sound very Levy though.

Quite a few things seemed off in that article actually, I'd be surprised if we were binning Moura off already, especially for no profit. Made out Grealish was an alternative to Zaha/Martial too.

But it does all fit in well with Herc's ITK as the Sun were good on us last summer.

Hopefully this moves quick, significant amount of ITK that Poch really rates Zaha, so be good to give him a player off his list.

Zaha stuff is interesting but difficult to believe with the Moura stuff and the suggestion that Zaha is an alternative to Grealish, which makes no sense at all.
Yeah but this summer I'm pretty sure they've been a tire fire of trash on us. They've been heavily snorting the Kane and Poch leaving dust.
