Wilfried Zaha not in Arsenal anymore

Wilfried Zaha a determined supporter of arsenal could not decline his offer of being a part of the team- Manchester United from the next season as offered by Sir Alex Ferguson.

Zaha said, “It was always Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal in terms of where I could be going, I have always supported Arsenal. I did not expect United to come in but they did. Arsenal are a good team but United are one of the best in the world.” However, the England international says he took this decision for his future with his head, not his heart.

As announced in January that Zaha will move into a new team he cant ignore his excitement to meet his new team-mates. He excitedly said, “I am just anxious and excited. I cannot wait. It will be something different. When I walk into that dressing room at United, I do not know what I will feel. I will keep my head down as I am there to play football. But I have to admit I will be a bit starstruck. Robin Van Persie and Ryan Giggs will be in there – wow. Wayne Rooney will be in there – amazing. How can I not be looking forward to this? I have to be patient. I do not expect to walk in and play week-in week-out. Once I get the chance I will take it. Moving to Manchester will be something I have to get used as I have lived in the south of England since I was four. I will come down to see my family so I do not think my accent will change. At the moment, though, the priority is Crystal Palace. I can only assure everyone this is the case. I’ve had a little dip in my performance since I signed for United, I will not deny that. But I have to get back to what I do well.People are saying it is the speculation of going to United which saw me struggle. But Robin van Persie went 10 games without scoring but it was one of those things. He was still doing his best and playing a part. Equally, I am desperate to get Palace up to the Premier League.”
