A new poster has been unveiled on the South Circular, the latest in a line of “South London & Proud” promotions by CPFC 2010.
It features Wilfried Zaha and the chant which is sung seemingly almost every time the England Under-21 winger is on the ball “he’s just too good for you”.
Palace fans have known for a while now that the boy is a bit special, on the level of a certain Mr Moses even.
The increase in the quality of Zaha’s performances this season has been very encouraging.
Four goals in the two games against Wolves and Burnley have demonstrated the shooting practise he has been putting in.
All too often last season Zaha’s fantastic work on the wing was undone by a lacklustre or wayward shot.
This term however he carries a genuine threat in front of goal, coupled with the added physicality he has added to his game following a summer spent in the gym mean Wilf can give any defence in this League a torrid time.
His fine performances have drawn the attention of Arsenal who are apparently considering a £12m swoop for Zaha in the January transfer window as a replacement for the wantaway Theo Walcott.
One thing is certain, if Zaha does leave it won’t be for Wigan- they may have captured Victor Moses on the cheap but Palace are no longer in a position where they have to sell.
Any anyway Roberto; he’s just too good for you.
