Dropping a division to QPR only option for timid Man United star
Wilfried Zaha must seek a move after another confidence-sapping episode at Man Utd
The collapse in confidence that Wilfried Zaha has experienced since signing for Manchester United resembles a man that has spent one too many late nights watching the England cricket team during the Ashes.
The latest chapter in The Curious Case of Wilf saw the winger dropped from the starting lineup for his clubâs most recent U21 match, before coming on as a substitute and performing particularly poorly.
So with his self-belief clearly shot, weâve drawn up a list of teams that are in need of a winger and can help Zaha rediscover his mojo, grading the suitability of each one.
Liverpool â E
The Reds, who are battling to make good on their 17/20 odds to finish in the top-four, would just be a too high-pressured move for the 21-year-old.
Signing for a Champions League-chasing club isnât going to do Zahaâs poise any good, as heâd be expected to perform right away.
Stoke â D
The Pottersâ direct style of play wouldnât suit Zaha, who needs a team that will make full use of his pace and powerful running with the ball.
Stokeâs preference to play up to, and off of, a tall striker like Peter Crouch makes them and Zaha a poor fit.
Swansea â B
Swansea, who are relegation candidates and 11/1 shots to go down, would be the ideal Premier League landing spot for the former Crystal Palace man.
Playing a possession-based style of football, and with a host of injuries to attacking players, the Liberty stadium would likely offer the game-time Zaha craves. Except thereâs just one destination that appeals greater.
Queens Park Rangers â A
Signing for a high-flying, London-based, Championship club would rekindle happy memories of Zahaâs time with the Eagles and QPR, who are 9/5 to win the division, fit that bill.
A drop in league would be of great benefit, while Harry Redknappâs notorious love of attacking wingers plays right into the Man United manâs hands.
All Odds and Markets are correct as of the date of publishing.
