Although there might be some hope he will stay so we can keep kicking the can down the road, the chances are that Wilfred Zaha will be off by season's end. Then, that question we've all dreaded facing will have to be answered; 'how do we survive, let alone prosper, without him?' The larger question is, where do we invest to try to make up for his loss?
For the sake of argument, let's assume Zaha is definitely going and the club knows it must spend big. The same level of outlay as the summer when PV arrived. Where should the money go, given our existing strengths / weaknesses?
Should it be forking out massively on a 'new Ian Wright,' which would fix the loss of Zaha's goals and give us the pace and potency our attack would lose?
Or do we stick with our current strikers and spend on a pacy winger who can cross and also get in an attacking midfielder, in the Gallagher mode, who will give us back some threat ( and goals ) through the middle?
Or perhaps we should concentrate on making the midfield and defence ultra-robust and mean, allowing us to get by on what would be a less potent creative unit of just Eze, Olise, Ewobei ( hopefully ) and Schlupp, perhaps playing behind either Edouard or JPM? Revisit the loss of Zaha after a season of survival?
Thoughts?
