Well without reposting my stance on it , let’s see what happens. I’m well aware of how the transfer window works and if we wind up with Zaha leaving and us signing Demari Gray, expect to hear from me ! Edited by NEILLO (09 Jul 2023 8.11pm) No point you trying to contact me under those circumstances, I'll be busy booking plane tickets to wherever Wilf is playing! I've always felt it unlikely Zaha will be at Palace next season, and the chances are we will end up with someone like Gray instead no matter what we do. My position is simply that the club's approach is the right one in that it gives us the best chance to avoid that outcome.

If I was wilf I wouldn't think twice about going to Saudi for a year of two with all the money being offered. He will probably rejoin us in two years when he gets homesick being away from Croydon. And nothing would have changed club wise...still finishing 12th and knocked out of cups early. I would say 2 FA Cup semi finals (one final) in the decade we have returned to the Prem probably compares favourably with our peers outside the top six. But agreed I would love to see us win something other than the ZDS before I pop my clogs

Wilf has been excellent for us and carried us for a number of year - for which he was well paid, earning more in a week that a lot of us in a year. Recently he's slowed, and his influence has waned. He can still turn a game on his own, but less and less, and against the lower sides. He's a free agent, yet how many of the top 10 are vying for his signature - none, and that tells it's own story. I'd love him to stay, but not on 200k for 4 years as that handicaps our ability to sign, develop and grow. We are CPFC not Wilf FC, so if he does not want to sign, and let's be honest he's had months to decide, then it's time to move on.

He just posted a picture of his kids in Palace kits playing on SP's pitch. In the background the scoreboard has the message "Thanks for all of your support. See you next season" (or something like that). Either he's really f*cking with people or he's staying.

Why are you all getting your knickers in a twist ? It is public knowledge Wilf is waiting for the deal with his agent to run out at the end of this month before resigning for Palace. That is why no top six team has come in - they have been quietly told he is staying. And before loads of you start going crazy about a waste of 200k a week, get this - it’s none of your business. The club will pay what they believe is good business for them and it is only gossip that it is 200k a week. They will pay what they believe is a fair deal and that’s all that matters.

I hope this thread has just attracted the anti Wilf brigade and does not reflect the majority of supporter's feelings. I doubt that it does. Zaha deserves more respect for what he has helped this club achieve.

Zaha deserves more respect for what he has helped this club achieve. He has been amply rewarded for his excellent play in the past, he already got 45k a week more than anyone else, we dont owe him any thing, Olise, Eze, Andersen, Guehi and Doucoure are all better players than him on less money, i think it shows lack of respect to the previously mentioned players, how many clubs would want that five on a free
