No thanks. Love Zaha as a player but that ship has well and truly sailed.

Report: 'World-class' player tells club he wants out after reported Arsenal interest, £35m gets him
Wilfried Zaha has told Crystal Palace that he wants to leave the club amid rumours that Arsenal are keen to sign him, The Times say....tbrfootball.com
There is a hyperlink in there to a Times article about Paddy Vieira taking over, but is paywalled and I can only read down as far as saying Palace would take bids, not on Arsenal interest. Of course I don't see us going up to 35m, but did theorise earlier when @Jakarta brought up what he heard, that if we can offload Reiss and Willian there would be space for Zaha, especially if we sold Laca also, and we could possibly get the price down to 10m + part exchange (e.g. Reiss, maybe AMN, not sure about Eddie).Wait, so Tbr football is saying the times is saying that 90 minutes has reported this?
This would be perfect, bring Zaha in, loan out Pepe to Palace.@Jakarta @Garrincha

An idea, but one I personally am not in favour of. Pepe did seem to come on strong late last season and I'm looking forward to continuity into the next season. I understand the doubts over Arteta though, his selections are unpredictable, and often unjustifiable.This would be perfect, bring Zaha in, loan out Pepe to Palace.
Before anyone who strongly supports Pepe strongly jumps on me this should let Pepe show the talent he has, most of the comments I read it is Arteta stopping Pepe doing his thing. Arteta will be here until Christmas at least so it would benefit Pepe in the medium to long term if Arteta is the problem. So in a year if Pepe has exploded we get an amazing player full of confidence under a new manager, if he doesnt we havent lost much.
