Crystal Palace manager, Dougie Freeman, on Zaha coming to Newcastle âWilfried is better than a Newcastle'' ''Newcastle are not the only club chasing Zaha, with Liverpool, Stoke and Queens Park Rangers all interested.â So he rates us lower then Stoke and QPR? But at least it means we are after him
Stoke won't buy him, he does not fit in with their philosophy (yes I butchered that word there) QPR - Liverpool - He does not play in black and white, they won't be interested. Dougie Freedman is an idiot and this just highlights his idiocy!
No you've read the article wrong that last piece was written by the journalist. However saying zaha is better than a newcastle is cheeky as if he goes to a top 4 side then he won't get a game for a couple of years
Think this from from NUFCblog.com sums it up best: Now let me just translate what Dougie really meant - Newcastle are not going to pay over the odds for Zaha, and we want as much money as we can get, so we have to hope that a club like Liverpool will come in with a stupidly high offer for him, like they did last January when they bough Andy Carroll from Newcastle. http://www.nufcblog.com/2011/12/21/palace-manager-newcastle-not-good-enough-for-wilfried-zaha/
Right having read the link now, I can actually get what he means. He is correct, we won't pay what he is looking for however even the bigger teams won't spend 10 million on him. He has done what he has done against Championship opposition and a reserve Man Utd. Tiote is worth 50 million if Zaha is worth 10 million lol
Somebody knows they're losing their superstar and is trying to start a bidding war! I'd do the same thing.
Given that he just signed a new contract for them I suspect Freedman's just having a cheeky giggle over the whole affair.
Jesus christ he is matt bellamy. Who'd have thought Dougie two timed as an awesome guitarist and frontman
