True although i cant see him being first choice in a 433 which also contains eriksen, kane, moura, zaha because poch ALWAYS plays dier and alli. No matter how good or bad.
Imo alli especially is actually the one who is/should be most at risk of losing his first 11 spot. If moura, lamela, son and potentially zaha or martial (id prefer martial) are in good form then it should be in place of alli unless he starts to consistently perform.

I'd never tell some random bloke on the street about my career plans. No idea why people expect footballers to be any different, fans or not. I'd especially not say anything about on-going talks.

After five pints I'll tell random people on the internet how our clubs finances look like.

Let's hope Wilf is more you than me.

But one thing that you needs for that to take place is a cm with the ability to play those passes out wide and to switch play quickly and effectively. Only player we have that can do that is eriksen.
This. I don't understand how a speedy strong winger is going to help us break down teams that pack the defence. In those games, and we have plenty of them, we need a top class CM to find the right pass quickly.

But then look at Alli assists goals his age ... not saying you are undervaluing Alli but wow, what a developing player

But why would he say he was leaving unless it was 100% happening? If the deal didn't happen he'd have egg on his face with the Palace fans.

Its really not hard to understand. Anyone with any common sense, is going to deny something happening if its not definitely happening. So if its in the pipeline no one would be stupid enough to turn around and go - yeah I'm loving.

He isn’t leaving at this moment in time. As the ITK tells is there is more to be done yet.

Of course because it's bad form to kiss and tell FFS. Keep your private life private I say.

So Gard's just told me on twitter it's not happening. Gutted seems that Levy has got his thumb up his ass.
Between JJ and Herc in the Grealish thread and you with Gards in here we're gonna just spend this entire forum in meltdown mode right up until deadline day aren't we? :rolleyes:

So either
1) Gards is hearing false info
2) Zaha has chosen Chelsea
3) We never actually agreed a fee for Zaha

or 4) Zaha decided to stay at Palace

Odds on him staying have been shortening over the weekend.

Wonder if this times with Hercs post last night about fastenin seatbelts. Maybe Levy decided to go all in on trying to get Martial at the expense of Zaha (with Zaha having been ready to come to us).
