hes going to arsenal for 9 million so ive been told. this is not good news, give Holloway half of that to spend and he will improve the squad big time. hope he stays put and his head gets so big after his England call up he goes on strike unless they make him lord croydon.

Zaha overated last year mainly the commentators battering on 24/7.
This season he does look the business.

Joey Barton has taken to Twitter to question Roy Hodgson's decision to call up Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha to the senior England squad.
A succession of injuries have led to the Ivory Coast born forward to be drafted into the team to face Sweden in Wednesday's international friendly.
However, Barton believes the call up is purely to prevent Zaha from being capped by his country of birth.
“Not a fan of the latest craze, giving caps out so as players don't go and play for other countries. Doesn't sit well with me that...," he tweeted.
“I'm not on about Sterling, I'm on about Zaha. Not played in the Prem yet. Nolan scored more Prem goals, yet don't get a look in? Baffles me.”
The QPR loanee also expressed disappointment at former Newcastle midfield partner Kevin Nolan’s continued omission from the England setup.
“Good to see Leon Osman get a call up, about time. My brain is asking why no Kevin Nolan? Surely, he warrants a call up more than most?" he added.
“On Premier League goals alone, consistently for the last 8 yrs, he deserves at least a call up.
“Osman [has been a] good player in the last few years. But he's 32 and isn’t gonna improve an average side.
"If they’re giving out charity caps, all I am saying is, Nolan should have had a call up years ago.
"As for me, well that’s something entirely different. Let’s not go there.”

Personally I think he's a little overrated. Good player, yes. But and England call up and Real Madrid are looking at him? There are much better players out there, young and older who deserve call ups. Kevin Nolan being the main one, but I even think Whitts should get a call up for a friendly in the near future. He's performed outstandingly at a good level consistently over the last few years, been named as the best outside the Prem and been in the Championship team of the year more than once.
