Ziyech won't even cost that much, he's being touted around for £25-30 million.

He's supposed to have a €25m release clause. But if he does you have to wonder why no one's activated it yet.

What's your explanation, hes not worth it?

Ziyech seems a better fit if only Auba is ahead. But if we're playing with Auba and Laca, then I think Zaha seems a better fit.

Or more likely that the release clause isn't being accurately reported, because that's pocket change to most Premier League clubs. Brighton just signed Leandro Trossard for around £20 million.

Not that it makes much difference, but United get 25% of any sale minus the £6m Palace paid for Zaha. So 25% on any profit Palace make.

£40m plus Calum Chambers would mean United get £8.5m. I think that would be a good deal for us and for Palace.

What are we valuing Chambers at here? £30m plus Chambers would be loads. I like Zaha enough but £40m plus Chambers is about £60m worth. No way Zaha worth that, if we are entering that sort of price level we should be chasing Pepe.

Key difference is I doubt Pepe has any desire to join us...

That being said, I'm still not convinced by this. Just not the right profile of player we should be targeting with our limited funds.

@[deleted] - for what it's worth, I made the same case you did. The prevailing opinion would suggest I'm mistaken but whatever...

He isn't going to leave Ajax for most PL teams, he rejected Sevilla. And he seems to be an Arsenal fan too.

Sell Iwobi for 20-30m and make it happen.

Would you target him if money wasn’t a problem?

Must be fun to be a footy hack in July.

Barca mistimed that transfer. They should’ve done it at the time when Fabregas moved to Chelsea. We would’ve had close to a decade of Fab, they would’ve had their Xavi heir, and we probably get a bit more cash. Everyone’s happy. We move on and get our Fabregas replacement.

That Fabregas moved under those circumstances was also indicative of the mess we were in. This was before Ozil and Alexis. We were in a dark place when he wanted out.

AW should have also been sacked re the shit show our end of season form post the CCup debacle v Brum.
Then there was the Fabregas & Nasri shit fest, followed by the OT 2-8 debacle & ensuing trolley dash on the last day of the transfer window. AW proved at that point in keeping his job that he was Teflon coated & the club CEO and BoD didn't have a frakking clue between them. Still shits me that he managed to steal a living for another half dozen years and effectively fuck us over big time in the last 3-5 seasons.

What's with the 101 reasons as to why Wenger should have been sacked? It's painful to read. He's gone. Let it go already.

As for Zaha, he's the exactly the profile of player this squad desperately requires. Zaha and Iwobi running down either flank is going to turn out like Robbery or Gervcott.

Nah, I'd target someone better and more expensive, haha. ;D

Yeah but Brighton aren't exactly smart spenders. I think when Ziyech moved it'll be for around 30mish, that's the price range touted for quite a while now. Hes not as young or in demand as De Ligt or De Jong but was more instrumental to Ajax' season than either from what I hear from most who follow Eredivisie. Hes still not the most consistent but should be eager to impress at his boyhood club also we badly need someone with his ability on the ball. Just let him get his head out his arse and win the AFCON first before turning his head with offers.

Can't believe you don't trust Jack Figg. 😆

Do they make up the rumours they write AND give themselves fake pen names?
