When's the last time we had a Wilf in football?
Wilfried Zaha
- Thread starter Carl
- Start date

Mannion
McGuiness.
Rafael van der Vaart's missus was pretty nice.
One from the glory days.Sounds like young Walcott and Chamberlain
Would also cost a lot more and expect a lot more starts. We cant always sign high profile players
I see your Ashley Young and raise you Arshavin.
Plus, 6-2 is in no way as emphatic as 8-2. Young made that happen.
To be fair the way our wingers have been playing this season I reckon pretty much any player we could sign would expect to be a starter.
No he wasn't. Easily our worst player against Liverpool.
Everytime I see this thread bumped along with the twitter thread, I instinctively think there's a development.
Walcott yeah, but he was wasted while playing on the Wings at Arsenal. Is playing centrally now and doing better.
Chamberlain is not the same.
His confidence got shot playing for England in the WC, where he was out of his depth. Has started to recover this season.
We are utilizing him pretty well for 2 seasons now, despite him being a limited player.
So have we prepared the bid yet ? 
So have we prepared the bid yet ?
Mike Phelan lost count so they've had to start over.
What bullshit is this?
Maybe a reference to his central role.
Oops.
Don't know how i ended up typing World Cup instead of the Euros there.
He was good last season in a squad role, and this season his confidence got shot due to the Euros where he was found out of his depth. Started the season like shit and has improved in recent games.

WC...Euros...it's still a load of shit. Blaming Hodgson for his shitness is ridiculous.
Huh ? Where did i blame Hodgson ?
I said he was found out at that level, which shot his confidence. You just need to see the start of the season.
And anyways, he was bought to be a decent squad option and we have given him plenty of chances in his best position. Overall he's been decent. He is the type of winger Wenger doesn't use or give regular game time too with enough room to fail and sometimes lose possession too.
What are you babbling on about. How do you know how confident Ashley Young was? As for Wenger and what you know about wingers, Walcott's success has come from the wing most of this season...he's been quite unremarkable in the central role.
Stick to what you know...whatever that is.

Whatever that thing is in your Tagline seems more intelligent than you. Stick to it, and some may rub on to you.
:/
I thought he had been poor for a few months and was on going to be dropped at this rate.
And didnt he play just 55 minutes against Stoke?

Ollie can taste that £12M, he wants it!
Has this actually turned into a serious rumor now. Or is it all just tabloid rubbish still?
There's a lot of persistent rumours, and enough to suggest we are actually scouting him. Whether that means that United want him or not remains to be seen.
Yeah I haven't seen much of him so im not in the best position to judge but after watching Sunday Supplement the journo's on there have been raising doubts about him. Since the speculation about his future and the England call up he's been dog shite apparently.
He wouldn't be the first player to lose form when his future is being sorted out.
Today is "tomorrow". Where is he?
Gill is still preparing the bid.
Perhaps Palace are preparing to accept it? Or Zaha is preparing to get in the car to drive up to Manchester?
Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
Zaha is the most overrated English winger since the Ox who is the most overrated English winger since Adam Johnson who is the most overrated English winger since Theo Walcott who is the most overrated English winger since Aaron Lennon who is the most overrated English winger since Ashley Young who is the most overrated English winger since Stuart Downing.
All wrong. Phelan still hasn't prepared lunch.
For £12m I hope Gill is preparing his arsehole for a nice big shafting he's going to get
See I was quite happy with Fergie saying "No dealings this window!" - I've been sucked into this one now oddly enough. Someone sign him already!
Preparations are going on as we speak. Gill is now preparing himself for the photo-op.
Getting the white sheet ready as we speak.
Can't say I'm in any way excited about the prospect of this, swap him for Bebe + £5M perhaps?
£2.5m seems a bit cheap.
