I would like Palace to be planning and acting for,life after Wilfried Zaha while he is a very good player he is very one dimensional only wanting to play wide on left in a very small pocket. Wilf demands the ball and as a result it makes Palace predicable . Wilfried is not a team player he berates his team mates constantly expecting the perfect ball played to him, plus loses possession too often. He knows he is the best that Palace have had for the past ten years and will always be a legend. Let him leave on good terms at his peak and find some other team to reward him well in his final few years. We will see him eclipsed by Eze, Olise and others going forward.

Wilf sometimes berates his team mates. Well, is it any wonder when most lack simple ball control and passing skills? Hopefully, if the new supposedly 'creative' midfielders settle in then he will get passes to his liking and strengths. Unfortunately, when he returns from injury he won't have many matches to enjoy these riches before he departs in July. Wilf is, and has always been, our talisman and despite his faults and declining pace we have a better chance of goals and winning matches when he is there. I am afraid life after Zaha looks pretty bleak to me.

Maybe you should have stayed in bed a bit longer this morning.

Sounds like you hate him, so life after should be pretty sweet

Latest rumour is the Saudis want him to go and play with Ronaldo. I would be surprised as it shouldn’t be about a lack of money for him, but I suppose we will find out whether it is football or greed that appeals.

But what about his dreams of Champions League glory? Unless the plan is to earn enough to buy Palace and come back as owner/player.

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

He could 100% sign for a team in the champions league but he'd have to ask for realistic wages. Depends what his motives are but I'd be very disappointed if he went to join Ronaldo. He needs to get Choupo-Moting's agent. Stoke - PSG - Bayern!

We currently have a vision of life after Zaha.
Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes) |

Not sure being Ronaldo's side kick would be his preferred destination. I think he still wants trophies, so what he really needs is a bid from a top 6 PL side, But it's far from clear that's going to be on the table for him
