Wilfried Zaha
This is an unpopular pick I know especially as he is only young and still gets loaned out to Premier League clubs, but it has to be acknowledged that the old Palace chant of “he’s just too good for you” simply does not apply to Premier League sides. Zaha was signed by Sir Alex Ferguson but his first United manager was David Moyes. He spent half a season watching his sides less than impressive wingers fail while he still couldn’t get a look in and was soon loaned to Cardiff. He managed 13 appearances and only assisted once with the Bluebirds. Next Louis Van Gaal came in and inherited a side where Zaha could be seen as one of the more attractive wing back options due to his pace and dribbling ability as well as his well documented crossing; yet he was once again cast aside and has now been loaned back to Crystal Palace, where he has scored 18 and assisted 28 in 143 games. The signs now look ominous for his Old Trafford future. It has to be said that, while he still has time to develop, Zaha is nowhere near the confident player that got two England caps whilst still being a Championship player.
