If we are offering a better all round package then surely he is our player?

It's not all about money, though. Chelsea are a mess but in recent years they've won major trophies, whereas we haven't. Playing time also a factor - currently we've got Moura, Lamela, Son, Alli and Eriksen all vying for spaces behind Kane.If we are offering a better all round package then surely he is our player?
Im bloody amazed this hasn't broken in the media yet?

I'm just playing devil's advocate, though. I think we are in a much better place as a club than Chelsea.
I get your point, but Alli and Eriksen are the only two penciled in behind Kane. Son will miss time and I think Zaha brings more to the table than Moura and Lamela. In Moura's defense, he did not get much run so he might surprise everyone this season.It's not all about money, though.

I would think playing time would be the biggest sticking point.
Yeah - I always slightly question the authenticity when there’s been absolutely no noise in the media, but who knows?
Hope we tie something up for Grealish and either Martial or Zaha soon. It’s getting silly how long it’s taking

Lyall will be all over it in a few weeks.Im bloody amazed this hasn't broken in the media yet?
There are 4 competitions and we need depth.He can play wide left, right, behind the striker and as a striker. Even if he came in and was a squad player then he would still get enough game time moving between each of those come injury's or resting players.
Crystal Palace have made a move for Danny Ings. Probably unrelated but they need to find money from somewhere for these kinds of bids.
And they have to do them before any Zaha news breaks or else prices will go through the roof.
They've also been linked to Gonalons (CM) at Roma.
Would have thought they'd try and get RLC back, shocked chelsea didn't try and use that as leverage.
You'd probably need to give each of them about 8 pints as well to convince them all to join Palace... With a 25% sell on clause Palace will just demand more money to make sure they pocket as much as they can.An ITK said that Man U have a 25% sell on clause with Zaha and Palace clearly need to sell. Surely a more prudent approach to agreeing a deal at around £65m, let's just say is to do a player swap so that you don't miss out on over £16m to invest further.
Carter-Vickers, Sissoko, Nkoudou, Janssen, Edwards, Llorente for Zaha or £65m- £16m gives them £49m. I can't see where they'd get a better crop of players for £49m than we could give them in theory so they don't have to swallow a quarter of the fee to Man United.
It makes sense to me, but then again I have had about 8 pints tonight
