They’ve not been the same since the Eagle carked it.

They've had a good run this time round though. Were one of the most relegated sides at one point iirc.

About time they went down actually. Too many London clubs.

Zaha goes this window, so it’ll depend on how they spend the money. They’ve got the basis of a half decent side, they just lack a clinical finisher and Woys tactics date from the time of the Old Testament.

They'll have to drop the asking price imo, no one paying £50m+.

The myth about their atmosphere pisses me off as well. When I went it was just 40 or 50 bellends, rest was like (almost) every other home PL support.

Yeah no chance. They wanted £70m last summer, he’s sulked all season and they’ll be lucky to get half that now imo.

I'm not really convinced he's all that really. End product ain't good enough for above midtable imo.

Said the same. Been Selhurst twice and both times could barely hear them, definitely has a TV speaker/ mic in front of them to make it sound like it's a whole stand on a mad one.

I think he’d be better in a better side, as he does draw the opposition to him, which leaves gaps for others, but at Palace there’s really only him on his tod.

But yeah his stats aren’t that of a top, top player. He’s always impressed me when I’ve seen in the flesh though.

Zaha showed he was just a dumb **** the moment he signed that new contract. Think he had about 12 months left on his deal prior to that but was short sighted by seeing that £125k a week Palace put him front of him, failing to acknowledge he was handing them all the cards with regards to his future. Wouldn't be overly surprised if he's still at Palace once the window ends, unless they drastically lower his asking price which is doubtful.

Rumours are that they mic that section and amplify it but in fairness it was a Brighton fan that told me that <laugh>
