Don’t know if anyone else on here saw this today but about 30 mins in, after losing the ball, Zaha has a 5-10 second stare down with a palace fan in the glaziers lounge area, towards the front, spat in his direction and quite audibly told him to F*** off.

After that he passed the ball backwards for the rest of the half every time.

I do get the anger towards him sometimes and he does need to grow up, he’s a grown man ffs, but he is still always potentially a match winner for us and has been our best player for years.

Doesn’t bode well anyway you look at it. I’d love for someone to come in with a proper offer for the summer. That way he’d maybe relax do his thing for the rest of the season and his departure would not be acrimonious, I wouldn’t feel good if he left on bad terms - Id like to remember his time here happily. Not saying that I think this will happen of course.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Zaha must go ASAP, while we can get someone to pay the ridiculous asking price.
His value is going down every game he plays, and today he couldn't even summon up the effort required to acknowledge the Palace fans, who were applauding him off the pitch.
I can't stand to look at his miserable sulky face, he's really not as good as he thinks he is.

Today yes when he appeared not to be interested by being too negative and cautious every time he collected the ball which was very sad for us considering how very good Arsenal were at times reenacting our passing around the back while eating candy floss and wearing roller skates, I was quite impressed with them.

its very difficult to be as dynamic as he is when he had 3 men on him whenever he gets the ball.

His agent probably told him don't bother today, don't get injured etc . Disgusting attitude, never thought I'd see the day he would stitch us up.

Almost every time he received the ball he looked backwards instead of the other way it was as if he was frightened of being involved in any combat, this played us into trouble on a number of occasions really not at the races at all, seems he is aware of not jeopardising himself

Precisely and so obvious. Started to play well recently but now doesn’t want to get injured so it’s like playing with half a man or less.

which was most of the time, certainly in the first half (I'm in the Glaziers stand so saw how tightly Arsenal crowded Wilf virtually every time.

Despite the talent, he'll never be top draw because of the tantrums. If he was really as good as he thinks he is another team would have been in for him.
One thing is for certain and is human nature, is that when working in a team environment if one member isn't pulling their weight and mucking about they soon get told by the others. I wonder if the other players put up with his stroppy moments hoping for a bit of magic?

His display today would suggest he is very aware of some solid interest in him for if he wasn't he hasn't done himself any favours in this department at all.

They certainly doubled up on Wilf but he never looked his normal self today. I reckon he must be carrying an injury. He didn’t even have a go at the fullback who was on a yellow and they were down to 10 men. Normally he would have been drawing fouls in those circumstances. It looked like he didn’t want to be tackled today

Now the transfer window is open he's turned back in to the incredible sulk, it really wouldn't hurt him to acknowledge the supporters.
