Has Zaha hindered his own situation?

I think Zaha is fantastic. So disappointed he chose to play for Ivory Coast instead of England.
I do think he gets a bad rap when it comes to diving. He gets fouled all the time, and it seems that opposing managers often mention his diving ahead of time - as if to prompt the ref. He runs at speed, and it’s not surprising he falls when he’s kicked.
I’d take him at Chelsea in a heartbeat. I think he’s a great player - and that’s at Palace. At a top team he’d see even more of the ball in an attacking position and he’d make an even bigger impact. I’m not surprised Palace want a fortune for him though. It’s impossible to replace a player like that.

Given a chance...we have a similar player in RLC...and he's shown it of late too when selected

Zaha has always been a headless chicken. Crystal Palace is his level. Certainly not what Arsenal needs.

Do you even watch football?
Complete opposite of a headless chicken, he slows the play down for palace, works to make space for others, takes it past people and usually chooses the right decision.

Some people on this site are just ridiculous.,

RLC has many attributes, but he’s not similar to Zaha. And anyway, I don’t have a problem with them both playing for Chelsea - they did ok together last season at Palace.

Completely agree.

Many wont like me writing this but here is a list of white players who have been labelled headless chickens;

Not sure if this is wum or whatever. But are you actually correlating this to race?
Talk about a wild statement outta nowhere. Reign it in.

Zaha is a headless chicken. He does little to nothing productive with the ball. Zero creativity and intelligence to his play. There's a reason why him along with the likes of Depay didn't work out. He's not good enough.

I simply made a list of white players labelled as a headlesss chicken. Feel free to add.

If you think Zaha does nothing with the ball I dont know what to say tbh.

Although dubbed is completely incorrect.

Jesper Gronkjaer, Diego costa (at times), Luiz, torres, bouhlarouz, zappacosta just from my own club have been called hedless chicken, just off the top of my head.

But yeah dubbed's opinion is ridiculous either way.

I don't rate Zaha. Simple. Bringing his race up, even though I'm black myself makes you look like a bit of a tool tbh.

Its something I see all the time.

Walcott, Lennon, Zaha, Sterling, Ibe

And yet no mention of the likes of Albrighton, Etherington and Jarvis.

Really couldnt give a fvck if you agree or not.

Zaha is different from Walcott,Lennon,Sterling etc.RLC is a talented player who should be playing more matches as a Chelsea player.
