I had to give up on that highlights video of his.
It showed he had great pace/power and some trickery, but it was hard to determine if anything came of it as it always cut before he made the cross or shot for goal.

Given it is a promotional video, you have to assume that after beating his man, he consistently wastes the opportunity he creates. And that matches my own memories when we have played Palace - he destroyed his marker like no other then we were not punished.

On the other hand, he'll give teams a fright - like Lennon used to - and give the fans something to cheer.
And if MP wants him, then I guess we'll have to lump it, for better or worse.

If only that Palace fan knew :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

The fans were interviewed after their friendly about the prospect of Zaha leaving and one of fans words were "You can't turn it down but I've heard Sissoko could be a swap so, it might be a good swap"
The presenter: "What, Tottenham's Sissoko?" Probably as bemused as many :ROFLMAO:

Fair enough, but why unfollow anyway?
Actually, why follow him in the first place? No, as a chairman, why even be on twitter? Would be embarrassed if Levy was spouting off on that shit show. But Palace are good for their "look at me" chairmen.

Who knows though. Poch clearly wants him, if we have the opportunity to buy him and offload some unwanted players, then I'm all for it, especially the way transfer prices are going. Wait another year and he'll be £100m.

Everyone seems to be guessing at the moment. They also state grealish will be a spurs player next week, while the mirror says he's now likely to stay. Hopefully the mail has better sources than the mirror on this

This is from a DM article about the top 6 clubs generally and is a throw away sentence in it. Seemed to be based on absolutely no evidence. Don’t get your hopes up.

if we pay 70 mill for zaha, even with outgoings,my mind will think 'hm a top quality CM could have been bought' in an area we need strengthening more. I am still yet to be convinced zaha is anywhere worth that.

70m would get us a world class player if we bought outside the PL. Zaha is a good player but I can't see what he offers over what we've already got. We're crying out for a top class CM.

He managed nine goals and seven assists in twenty nine league games last season so he definitely creates chances.

We need homegrown players though.
