• Cardiff City favourites to agree deal for winger
• Manager waits for injury news on Ashley Young and Nani

Wilfried Zaha may be allowed to go on loan by David Moyes, once the Manchester United manager has weighed up his options in wide positions as he waits for injury news from Ashley Young and Nani.

Moyes has Adnan Januzaj, Antonio Valencia and Shinji Kagawa as three players who can operate in the position and with it being unclear when Young, who has a shoulder issue and Nani, a hamstring problem , might return, the Scot has yet to decide if he can afford to lose Zaha for the rest of the season .

Cardiff City are favourites to sign the 21-year-old , the strong links of the new manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with United – from his time there as a player and reserve team coach – helping to push his club ahead of Stoke City and Newcastle United in the battle to sign Zaha.

Moyes wants regular Premier League football for Zaha, along with a guarantee that the coaching he will receive can best help to develop the winger, who has struggled to establish himself at Old Trafford.

If the reported 1.5 loan fee is correct plus his 50,000 pound a week wages stay well clear i would say that will be over 100,000 a game no thanks .there is a reason why he is not getting into a very poor Man utd team.

Zaha is on 35k a wk :? And I don't think the loaning club pays all the wages?

Madness, we are just a money pit throwing million after million away, well Tan is anyway. You would think a club like ours would not be paying more than 25k a wk for a signed player or loanee.

Not sure where I first became aware of this story! Is Zaha not going out with DM's daughter? It was all over the press some time ago. Also it's well documented that he want's to keep him away from London nightlife!!!
Personally I think we could do much better with a 15 goal striker. I really rate Frazer but he can't keep running like he does till the end of the season it will kill him!!
Always behind the team no matter what :ayatollah: :malky:

That sort of money is a joke

If we agree to that, then Tan is more of an idiot than i gave him credit for......and to be honest, so is Ole. We could do far better with that kind of cash

Maybe taking Zaha on loan is linked with the deal to sign Fabio on loan, with the promise of signing Fabio on a free in the summer (only way that I think your allowed 2 players from the same club on loan). That way we would get a £5m plus player for free, but have to pay £1.5m loan for Zaha, plus both players wages. Also, it would take Zaha away from the possible trouble mentioned previously in this post.

Ole is an idiot? Holy shit. He's only been in charge for two games. He seems pretty intelligent to me.

What do you expect us to get him for nothing? :lol:

I bet the majority of our squad are on 35k+ already. We arent going to get many players in this window who wont want a similiar wage.

if man utd keep him for about 15seasons then that would work out they've paid 1.5mil each season for him. so what difference does it make with us doing it? could do with someone unpredictable in our side.

VT can't win with you lot :lol: Here is an owner who will back his managers to the hilt in the transfer market, yet he gets called all sorts :lol:

If paying someone of Zaha's proven quality £35k with fee of £1.5million is madness, what does that make the signing of Cornellius?? Yet many on here think that the sun shines out of of former managers arse. :lol:
