Do Man U have a buy back on Zaha? Or am i imagining that? What did Palace pay for Zaha? can't be much, absolute steal really
Edit, no buy back, Palace paid around 6m, Jesus...as if. 6m well spent.

Can't remember what the fee was, probably peanuts.
Zaha is the one of the most inconsistent players about tbf.
Yea, he can be unplayable on his day, he's played alright tonight, only 23 as well, inconsistency is natural at that age i suppose.
I dunno, 23 doesn't seem too young for footballer these days to me.
He can be unplayable certainly on his day, makes it all the more frustrating.
23 is still young mate, definitely, even more so nowadays with players playing later into their 30's because of training techniques and diet.
Players play later agreed for the reasons you say.
With the same reasons you cite and with coaching facilities and money in the modern game for youngsters - I don't consider 23 to be young.
I don't suspect to see Zaha suddenly maturing put it that way.
OK, i don't agree but we're all entitled to an opinion.
I agree, at 23 the really talented players can have 5 years of senior football under their belts, Zaha has been playing first team football since 2010 (126 Championship games, 73 Premier League games says Wiki), if he hasn't found that consistency and maturity yet, when would he?

I thought Sturridge may have started today. Swansea aren't a team that like to sit deep and defend so they'll likely push forward and leave space at the back which would've been ideal for Sturridge to exploit.
Still, nice to see a consistently good team week in week out at the moment regardless of who Klopp plays
