But, it's good to have a HG player that actually contributes. Cahill was a starter, but he's not going to be around much longer, and only from the bench anyway.

If the move goes through...I will say we have a terrific transfer window...He is gonna be sensational under Sarri... And I hope willian/martial swap...anyway one can dream..

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I'll bet my house he does not stick a transfer request in. IF we got him i think it'd be something like £40m plus Drinkwater or RLC on loan https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DjnvgoCXoAYXyRx.jpg:large Also posted that on IG, seems to be hinting that he hasn't said anything. Or maybe i am reading too much into it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,944 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Convinced he'd be a beast for us opposite Hazard. Opposing fullbacks getting roasted repeatedly on each flank. Fucking delicious. Unfortunately, the thought of Palace selling their talismanic best player who carried them last season doesn't sound possible with mere days left in the window. Not like them getting mega money for him does them any good when a club like Palace can't attract someone else on his level. Would be like us and Hazard. No use having money sitting in the bank with no one to spend it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only scored 9 goals tho. But with a pro active forward system them numbers should grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 2,717 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 This probably has the most steam behind it since the Golovin rumours. He is a great player, and has obviously worked very hard on the things fans and he himself identified as weaknesses. On top of all that, he is strong, agile, quick, technically proficient and has an eye for goal. Like mentioned, he can play up front too. He can be that Mertens type potentially. People really underestimate the amount of good a dynamic player can do, even if they aren't that tactically aware. Well Zaha is, and has worked on that part a bunch. Would be a great signing, and a player like this would excel on a bigger team with better teammates. Unionjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way would be to include a swap and I cant see any of our lads up for a move to them unless it was a loan.

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Zaha's contract runs till 2022. Who amongst you think this is even remotely possible? This is all the same window dressing that has gone on for the past 3 summers. We negotiate till the deadline then when the media latches onto propaganda and its out that we are after HUGE targets, end then go to the deadline and sign Drinkwater or Djilobodji.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Be delighted if we get him, would rip shit up on the right wing for us and he's miles more productive than Willian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
