He's just too good for them. I'd have him back in a heartbeat. Wilf is red and blue through and through. COYP.

Cardiff Players angry at Wilf might want to look closer to home, for example at their shoddy defending, lack of commitment and complete inability to close players down - We'd never have conceeded Puncheons first goal, and probably not his second either. Leadleys, maybe, but you have to question how easily he ran through the back four, and how bad the challange was on chamakh when he went for the header. Although wilf didn't have a great game, its not like they looked better without him. At least he was getting to the line, beating ward on occassion - Where was the midfield support coming into the box and the attackers? I could understand complaint if they were breaking down our back four in the second half, but they didn't their wings were dead. They weren't good with him, but there were worse without him.

Zaha is a confidence player. His first two seasons for us he had the odd good game but never really had a run of matches where his talent shone through. In his last season he was brilliant and it was all down to confidence. He has been starved of that this season with limited game time so is obviously not going to be at his best. A move back to Palace could see him regain that confidence. Look how TP has given Chamakh a new lease of life here. He was lost at Arsenal not getting a game but has come here and TP has made him one of our most vital players and you can see the confidence has come back to him. If Wilf did come back I am sure TP will turn him into a top quality prem player. Edited by cheswickeagle (07 Apr 2014 3.49pm)

He played very poorly IMO. Good at getting past Ward in the first half but that's what comes naturally to Wilf. I don't think for a second he wasn't trying with us and it's always some guys "mate" with some insider knowledge. Wilf is throwing his career down the drain and honestly, is sounding more and more like another useless idiot that can't break into any team the way he is going. Fans always over-hype their players as we do with Wilf but whether he's getting first team football or not the one thing we can all see is that he has not improved at all. Not yet cut out for the prem, still doesn't work for the good of the team in 90% of circumstances and I much like many other am wondering if he'll tap into his talents and hopefully learn how play as a team and how to cross in a good ball. I can see him at 34 in league 1 or 2 and only ever played a handful of matches in the PL.
The only problem with the whole Zaha situation is people who thought he was going to make the step up in a matter of weeks. I can't think of one example of a Championship youngster carrying the same form into the Premiership following a move - it always takes time (Moses and Clyne being good examples of this). I still have every confidence Zaha will make it as a good Premiership player, people just need to drop the ridiculous expectations.

His attitude is a concern currently, but if he was to come back to us, who better to get him into shape than Tony Pulis?

I disagree about his attitude. Once he knew he was going to Man Utd he could have coasted and avoided any 50/50 balls. I remember Chris Armstrong did just that when Spurs came knocking for him.

Zaha means something to a lot of people at Selhurst. He is loved here.......He played a big part in getting us promoted by providing the X factor and he was the difference in the semi final. He came through the academy.....Every player that makes it into the first team from there is a little special to fans. He bought ten million into the club.....Ten sodding million. Zaha is fecking great and we would jump at the chance to have him back home. He's young but with the right handling he'd rip many an opposition a new one.
