Is Arsenal target Wilfried Zaha all that? [have your say]

I’m hearing rumours circulating around the media and Twitter that Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha will become an Arsenal player next week.

The 20-year-old forward has been heavily linked with a move to The Emirates in January and will make the switch, with the England international being sent back to Selhurst Park on loan until the end of the season, according to reports.

So if reports are to be believed and Zaha will sign for The Gunners next week – if he hasn’t already – would you be happy with this acquisition?

A lot of people that I’ve spoken to believe the youngster would be an excellent signing for the club and although he looks a talent, from what I’ve seen, I just don’t see where he will fit in to the starting line-up.

If he has signed for Arsenal, or on the verge of doing it, then he must be coming in to replace Theo Walcott, who has yet to sign a new deal. This is the only possible reason for this signing.

He possesses great dribbling skills, pace and athleticism. But is he the man to strengthen our squad?

Let me know what you guys think of this. Would love to get your views on the Crystal Palace starlet.

    Assuming Wenger goes for Zaha,whta will happen if he finds the epl out of his depth?Then it will be more time wasted.
    If Wenger is pragmatic he better go for the trusted brand.If not the gunners will fall further behind and deline to mid tabel status like Liverpool. Even with a massive spending spree,there are no guarantees they can fight for cl status by 2014. Such a seismic decay will result in Wenger biting the bullet and could even set back the gunners for years.

    get him, wenger can make an good player brilliant, so zaha will only get better under wenger. but let him not be a replacement for theo! make theo the striker, with as striker, opp defenders will always be trying to back away. if they don’t do that theo’s pace will get the better of them. with the cb’s guarding theo the midfield will be getting more spaces to create chances!

    It appears to me Wenger is preparing the way for a new coach. If that is so Zaha is an excellent acquisition.
