Come on Crystal Palace, nothing less than 60 million
Ridiculous offer. Won't go for less than 70m in my view. imagine he went for 5m less than AWB.
Hopefully 400m and funds our bid for koulibaly

Wheres that extra Pound Arsenal?
Don't think Palace will even negotiate with them after that bid.
We get 25% as well right? Arsenal are a joke 
.
.I would gladly pay that 30m for Zaha and take him back. Such a steal !
Obviously, if Palace are willing.

Yeah, crazy money for an average player.
He's not average at all. He's a very good player/Yeah, crazy money for an average player.
The 25% we get from this deal is always going to make Zaha moving on difficult.
40m bid would result in them receiving 30m.... Not gonna happen

Agreed, been thinking this for a while. Definitely suited better to a deeper role than he often plays. Him next to Pogba could be great if he settled into a metronome role.
hard to see Zaha moving with that clause
he'll have to kick up a bit of a fuss to make it happen

It's insulting isn't it. Just sold a young RB for £50m.
Everyone knows about the 25% clause, so Arsenal effectively just offered them £30m for their best player.
I wouldn't even respond.
Looks like Brahimi to Arsenal haven't got enough klicks for Sky Sport News.
If true I don’t like these tactics. Just get the deal done
They just got £45m for AWB...
So Arsenal think £30m will be enough for their best player who has a contract until 2023

Agreed. Will certain cost Palace a whole lot more than 30M if they get relegated.They just got £45m for AWB...

With the money they got for AWB, dont think Palace need the money from a sale either..
60+m I think.
60+m I think.
More dicking about. We must really want this player in before they travel for preseason.
He's a 10 goal a season forward, and saying that is quite generous as he achieved that only once at 26. Definition of average.
I'd say it's CP taking the piss asking for the world for him, not Arsenal for putting a fair offer. CP are entitled to turn that down, let's see if they can keep the player happy after that. Arsenal can look elsewhere, there are plenty of average to good forwards available in Europe for ~40m.
I thought for a second that they've wrote "haha, haha" in the background of the picture.
Haha. Good signing if they get him! Could take them to another level!
Good signing, but he will probably cost twice that much.
They won't get him for anything less than 70 million imo.

José Félix Díaz: Martin Schoots, the agent of Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen, is set to meet with Real Madrid as he looks to discover more about Los Blancos' potential interest in the player.
Paul Pogba remains Madrid's primary target for the midfield and the Frenchman will discuss his future with Manchester United upon his return from his holidays.
Eriksen, on the other hand, has decided against renewing his contract with Spurs, who are willing to enter negotiations with Real Madrid about his possible departure.
Under the current circumstances, however, last season's Champions League runners-up are open to reaching a deal with Madrid, who will wait - above all else - for Manchester United to make a decision on Pogba's future.
Is he really that much better than Iwobi? Zaha is the vocal point in a bottom half of the table side, I'm sure Iwobi wouldn't look too bad being treated as the star player in a small pond.
Also out of curiosity how would our 25% sell on clause work if Palace did a swap deal with Arsenal instead?
I know you dont make starting bid of 100mil. right away but if you take everything consideration, 40 mil. offer is so out of touch.
Believe he's on holiday at the moment, might be similar to the AWB situation where the media report stuff to fill the gap when actually it's all waiting for the player to become available to finalise everything.
Or maybe it's all bullshit and we don't actually want him.

They are desperate.
Arsenal are a disgrace.
It wouldn't.
More than likely that it's the journo's latching on to spin up an article based on the whole 5 million if 35+ million rejected clause. I think we are in for him and would settle for somewhere near 50 million.
They would have to assign a value to the players included (just as if you were including your old house in the purchase of a more expensive new house).
However just as in the scenario with houses you'd manipulate the cost of the traded players to ensure maximum cost efficiency (in this case to avoid paying a huge sell on fee, in the case of houses to avoid SDLT).
E.g. If it was Iwobi and £40m they'd value Iwobi at maybe £7-8m.
