Wilfried Zaha - On The Move

Wilfried Zaha - Crystal Palace - Winger / Forward

Possible Transfer - Manchester United, Tottenham


108 appearance while scoring 12 goals  for Crystal Palace since 2008

Wilfried Zaha has been linked with a move to the EPL during this Januarys transfer window.  Zaha has exceptional speed and phenomenal foot skills.  He showcased his skill time and time again for Palace in the Championship.  He seems to be a great fit for Manchester United who at times lack the creative winger with the dip in Nani's play this season.  Zaha posses creativity and smooth on ball talent mixed with his stunning speed.  His ability to draw fouls and leave defenders flat footed makes him a top name on Alex Ferguson's January transfer list.

My biggest draw to this player is his ability to cut the ball.  Time and time again he used his Cristiano-Ronaldo-like moves give him a leg up on most defenders he faces.  A great example of this was seen when Palace play Manchester United in the Carling Cup.  His slicing and dicing of defenders such as Fabio and Chris Smalling reenforced his readiness to make the jump to the EPL.  With all eyes on the youngster I believe Manchester United will be the one to win the race to sign the Crystal Palace standout.  

See for yourself the ability of the tricky winger
