Just hope our directors, board and Zaha call this right. Only they know where this is heading.

Surprisingly find myself siding with Lanzo here. Wilf is no longer the best player at the club. He just about sneaks in the top three alongside Olise and Eze.

I continue to say - I hope he stays.
He can have a positive effect both on and off the pitch and if he does stay will likely have a role at Palace for many years to come.
Come on Wilf - sign on the dotted line - you know it makes sense!

Not convinced….he’s not the player he was and it’s a very long contract on a very high wage. Injuries and age taking a toll.


Maybe the money could be better spent on the next Zaha…not the previous one.

Mixed thoughts here.

Im totally with the 'positive effect both on and off the pitch' however that is mixed in with the 'dangerous precedent 200k a week sets' thought.

At the end of the day Olise had 11 assists last season, Wilf has had 9 in the last four seasons, and has never bettered 11, they are the stats, he is a busted flush now and a 3/4 year contract on a similar salary is ridiculous in all aspects of the signing. and i think a disaster for the morale of the players that are better than him, and their are many, on much lower salaries.

Agree with you there Lanzo 100 percent .

I still have my doubts that the contract is worth the £200k per week that’s being bandied around in the media.

It just doesn’t make sense for our club to be paying that to anybody.

But Sprites, do you think there is a player we can currently sign who will be better than Wilf?

I’m finding it very hard to believe that £200k myself.

Have you ever gave consideration that he might not be as good as you think now, as no decent team has come in for him, even though he is a free agent.

I actually share Wilf's desire to see how he could perform in Champions's league football and from that point of view I'd like to see him move on. Putting CPFC first - as we should - I was actually startled at how much better we looked without him when he was injured after Roy's return; but it's too easy to forget how easy a run of games we had then; against Wolves I found myself wondering if he could maybe have found a way to crack their defence and against top 6 sides that might be even truer. But I wish he could merge better into the much more talented attack we now have and I worry about the too generous contract we're offering.
