The Saudis have other means of persuasion besides money.

Dom Fifield and Matt Woosnam writing in The Athletic say the most likely outcome is that Zaha will be offered and will accept ‘slightly improved terms’ to extend his contract. This would be a great result!

Wilf is looking very strong on the pitch. Maybe he has been weight training. He also looks super fit. I don’t see any injury problem. He is definitely improving his mental issues albeit he has taken to openly having a go at some of his team mates. He looks a tad slower but he is still quick. I believe as our new style evolves and more quality players start to shine for us, Wilf could emerge once again as a super talent. Truth is he is still a very very good footballer. If he is helped getting his head around his weaknesses and builds on his strengths he could still become a giant.
With i our high intensity style we have the players to create a new and very exciting future. We have seen it in the last few games. Wilf has definitely played his part in this. He is still right up there as one of our best and I believe PV will help him reach new levels of play that will make him even better than before.

Perhaps the new talented, energy & flair signings & our approach to games this season (as opposed to recent previous ones) has a lot to do with it - I am not saying Wilf is suddenly reborn but if we could win a few more games & he sees that we are climbing the league instead of just doing our best to stay in it he would want to stay & be part of the new improved journey

(OK the lack of him having better offers will also play a part but having him with us & wanting to play inevitably makes a significant difference)

I can't find that piece in The Athletic. I subscribe and have not had a notification. Any more clues as to where I can find it please?
