Just how much match fit is he?

Indeed the Bolton game will be perfect for this.

Agreed I just don't get why every one is banging on about a player who was just above average in the championship.
United spent way to much money on him.
Has played next to no time in the premiership hence why he hasn't featured much for United.

He could be a massive flop.


Baffles me how anybody can claim he was 'just above average' he practically dragged palace up on his own

I've always said he's overrated and Id prefer Ince but I don't think we're in a position at the moment to be fussy. We need flair and a creator who can make something from nothing. Zaha has that in his locker and he also wins penalties which are something else we could do with. Its easy to be critical of Zaha but he's shown in the past that he does have it in him. Would I prefer Ince? Yes I would but I'm also more than happy for Zaha to come here and contribute and I think he'll have a chip on his shoulder and will want to prove to Moyes why Moyes is wrong and should be playing him. If he can channel that energy into good performances on the pitch which I think he will I think that we've got a good player on our hands.

The only reason Palace are in the PL is because of this man!! I'm not creaming over this signing but this is defo a signing to get excited about. He has pace, skill and can nick a goal out of nothing, what more do city fans want???

The only concern I have about is that he won't track back and help the defence out which I think will be a bit of a problem area.

lets hope the deal gets done in time for Bolton to give him a run out because I can't see Moyes allowing him to play against them on Tuesday

They are such a vile, scummy club. Its like seeing a love of your life, who dumped you for David Beckham, going out with some chav on Jeremy Kyle.

The boy is mega talented and is desperate for first team football. I think he's keen to prove to Moyes what he's capable of doing and I for one can't wait for him to start.

As for the Stripey Nigel's not being happy about Wilf joining the Mighty Bluebirds I say to them "WTF has got to do with you", get used to it cos we are staying UP and you are going DOWN!!! :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Any loanee is not allowed under PL rules to play against their parent club anyway.

Cardiff City expect Manchester United misfit Wilfried Zaha to sign for the club - but the 21-year-old has NOT had a medical, despite being spotted arriving at hospital.

The winger was snapped leaving the Bridgewater Hospital in Manchester on Wednesday, sparking rumours that he was on the brink of a move.

But MirrorSport understands that the 21-year-old was having a regulation x-ray on is toe after a knock during Manchester United's reserve game against Middlesborough on Tuesday night.

While the Bluebirds have asked to be kept abreast of the results, the tests weren't undertaken on Cardiff's request, nor were they conducted by City's medical staff.

Zaha's former club Crystal Palace were told last night that they had no chance of signing the exciting wideman on a permanent deal, despite him not being in David Moyes' first team plans. :laughing6:
