Image for Crystal Palace: Fans react to Wilfried Zaha’s tweet

A group of Crystal Palace supporters have been discussing a recent Twitter post from Wilfried Zaha. The 27-year-old posted an image of himself in training with a ball at his feet and captioned it: ‘Doing what I love.’ 

With the Premier League set to return on 17th June, Roy Hodgson will be putting his players through their paces and judging by Zaha’s post, he is raring to go. There was much interest in the winger from the Eagles’ London rivals Arsenal last summer, but having failed to agree on a price for the player, a deal became impossible.

To kick off this 1990s Premier League quiz, which season was the Premier League's inaugural campaign?

The Ivorian has made 29 appearances for the South London club in the Premier League this season, scoring three goals and providing his teammates with three assists so far. He would need to score seven goals in the last eight fixtures in order to match his tally from last season – therefore, you could argue that his performances have been impacted by the transfer speculation.

Here is how a sample of the Selhurst Park faithful have responded to the player’s post.

Are you confident Zaha will still be at Palace next season?

Yes

Yes

No

No

It’s clear from the above responses that Zaha remains a very popular figure amongst the Crystal Palace fans.

Whilst Zaha’s outputs compared to last season appear as though they will be lesser this time around, he boasts an impressive average performance rating in the Premier League of 7.06/10, according to WhoScored.com – which is the second-highest individual rating at the club this season.
