Clubs do seem to be more willing these days to invest in older players if they think they can bring success. Look at Ronaldo's fee and Hazard (who remember only had one year left on his contract), while Neymar moved for £200m last year when he was around Wilf's age and could move for a huge fee again this summer. If Arsenal, for example, believed Wilf was the difference between getting Champions League or Europa League football then they may see the investment as worthwhile. Wilf takes care of himself and recovers quickly from knocks, so he could potentially have another 6 or 7 years at the top flight left in him. These deals are all misleading. Any deals involving the super powers all involve so much merchandising revenue that it actually offsets the cost. Juventus has some number crunchers work out how much they were gonna get in shirt sales before signing off the Ronaldo deal for example. So you can kinda assume the “real” cost to Juve was less than the actual price.

Think we need to put our foot down now and say not for sale, Parish has said he will not sell both in the same window, lets hope he keeps his word, think Wilf going after AWB could be hard to recover from. As well as disastrous for ticket sales. If we thought our football was turgid last year at times imagine a season without those two!

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle This post has been merged from a topic called 'Zaha wants out' by Midlands Eagle 16th May: "I have to experience the Champions League. I just need the opportunity, that’s it. And I’ll do the rest." Not going to get that at Arsenal for a while is he? Don't mind him leaving to achieve that dream but leaving for Arsenal isn't on and they haven't got the money to pay what we'd want anyway.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The Wilfried Zaha Thread' by Midlands Eagle This post has been merged from a topic called 'Zaha wants out' by Midlands Eagle Just exchange Wilf for Aubameyang plus cash. I know Aubameyang at 30 is pushing on a bit, but we might get a couple of reasonable years out of him if we're lucky.
