Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Miggy is better than Zaha IMO, and more likeable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Anyone Newcastle fan who wouldn't be happy with adding Zaha to this squad has nowt between the ears. I was planning on spending more time/money at the FCC... Sticking with what I said earlier. Very overrated particularly at that price. Rather go for Willian on a Free for a couple of year with my Moneyball head on. I’ll let it slide saying you said Squad not Team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAK Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Zaha money, £60m plus, gets you Coutinho. Would rather Coutinho if we could attract him but I think the likes of Chelsea could be in for him and we wouldn't be attractive as them even with Saudi backing at this stage as no CL football.

KaKa Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 People just become enamoured with the names they hear being repeated all the time. Zaha would be so hated at Newcastle man. Have you watched the guy play at all? He produces something maybe 5% of the time. The other 95% of the time he is falling over or losing the ball and then bitching and moaning at the ref.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I would hate Zaha just because I despise his antics so much. But I imagine he's quite a lot less annoying when he's play for your team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 The Zaha output thing should really be given more consideration by Newcastle fans like Palace are a pretty defensive team, creation stats are down at the bottom near us afaik. Same excuses we were using for ASM and Almiron apply to him imo. Stick him in a more expansive team you're likely to get more out of him, though there is the chance he's only effective in that kind of setup and wouldn't suit a possession team. I'm really not 100% sure personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Zaha is a whiny little cheating prick, but very good at what he does. So much so I’d say Palace are relegation fodder without him and why they command such a high fee for him. For me it depends on where we’re going as a team. If we’re looking to defend well and counter then as an outlet he’s ace, if we’re intending to dominate and see more of the ball he loses his impact and for me why he never made it at manure (apart from being very young) I’d prefer us to be looking at someone who can score goals provided by the outlet and use asm and Or Almiron in that role. I also can’t see Zaha leaving London for any team, so pretty much ain’t happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 37 goals and 25 assists in 9 seasons. Added to the fact he's a diving cunt and that we could get way better for the £60m or so he'd cost it's a miss for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Carrick18 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 To be a great big massive nerd for a second. I bet his possession usage numbers are similar to Depay at PSV. You either run everything through him or you don't get a good return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
