I've never been keen on him. He is something like Sterling a couple of years back. All speed with little end product.

Er, you serious? Have you seen sterling lately? Good coaching makes a difference you know...

I doubt he's willing to take a pay cut now tho. He'll end up at Chelsea in 2 seasons

Linked to PSG. If he goes there then that will tell us everything about how 'ambitious' mr Zaha is.

Sterling have gone from headless chicken to one of the best wide forwards in the league, under the guidance of Guardiola. A part of me believes Zaha, a player with more natural atleticism and talent than Sterling ever had, could become world class under Pochettino.

On the other hand I'm not sure it's worth paying the premier league premium price / wages for securing Zaha. There are some real quality players in France and Germany that might come available and it might be better going that route and instead focus on paying the premium prices on CM and RB.

The majority of people don't doubt Zaha as a quality player. It's the price tag that is really offputting.

Don’t forget we need to get our home grown quota up, so we can select a full squad for the champions league.
Poch/Levy may feel the extra cost is worth laying out.

Personally I think the media guesstimates are more than we will pay, so I don’t see it happening.
