Put in a big performance last night against Liverpool including a lovely assist: https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/patrick-vieira-eberechi-eze-liverpool-
Before anyone says ‘he’s not our player any more’ let’s remember that we have a reported 30% sell on clause so it’s in our interest for him to have a good season. Maybe Newcastle will switch their attention to Eze if they can’t sign Maddison for £50m+
Either way it’s good to see him shining again after his injury last season. |  | | |  |

I thought he was incredible, though Zaha doesn't often seem to agree. |
Zaha has been like that with Eze ever since he joined Palace. I’m not sure if it’s because he’s feeling threatened by Eze’s talent or just a moaning git. | | | |

Zaha is very difficult to warm to, and as an unabashed Eze fan boy, the disdainful attitude he appears to show towards our boy wonder really grates.
But...second youngest of nine siblings who moved countries aged 4, was temporarily homeless at 6...subsequently donates 10% of his salary to charity, has funded an orphanage in Ivory Coast, and paid out of his own pocket to keep CPFC's women's team going...beneath that snarling exterior there seems to be a damn fine human being. |  |

He’s no right to moan at anyone. Apart from his goal he stank the place out. |  | | |

It was reported as 20% of the next sale, not 20% of the profit (Sell-on clauses can be either).
So 20% of, say, £50m.
When we sold Ferdinand for £6m, Hayes got £600k.
When Liverpool sold Sterling we got a cut of the overall fee, not the profit. |
Thanks Brian |  | | |

He lives near me (well the posh bit at least) and in the house he lived before he would always find time to chat to everyone apparently. | | | |

I try to watch Palace play whenever Eze gets a start, as mentioned the manor in which he conducted himself whilst at the club and when leaving was exemplary. He does seem like a genuinely humble guy which makes you like him that little bit more. Hope he can really kick on this season after fully recovering from his injury which kept him out for so long.
Played very well yesterday, a few missed passes but other than that his first touch and ability to go past players was class, annoying when the big teams concede its always bad defending but when they score its considered a great attacking move! Eze didn't get enough credit for his performance, unfortunately the nut from Nunez took centre stage. | |

The ‘Hitler lived in Croydon’ story has long been debunked
But he loved shopping there |  | | |

I thought everyone knew that.
Before he died, Sigmund Freud posited that it was the trauma of living in Croydon that contributed to Hitler's psychosis. I think it explains a lot about what happened. | |

In complete contrast to Eze, Zaha is impossible to like - though I suppose Palace supporters have to. It's hard to imagine a more moany, self obsessed player - Ronaldo excepted of course. |
Lot worse than Zaha - in fact a role model to a few in addition to this I read he paid from his pocket to keep the Palace Women's team going - think he gets a bad rap as he as an attitude when playing

Brian, off-topic but see West London's man of the moment and Cork City fan Mick Lynch was guest on an RTE podcast 'second captain' at weekend, some interesting stuff on Cork football and being black-listed as an electrician on London's construction sites in the 80's for being a member of a trade union. | | | |

Zaha seems to hate him, has done from day one. Very odd. |  |

"Lovely touch, balance and a perfectly weighted ball to open up the defence of one of the best teams in the world."
Jamie Carragher explained at half time, in excruciating detail, that the goal was a result of poor defending by his beloved team. If Eze had really shown the great skills you and I thought he had shown, I'm sure Jamie Carragher would have mentioned it.
Cough. |
To be fair, Neville highlighted his performance after the game and asked Viera about him specifically. The half-time analysis from Carra did grate though. |  | | |

We know what 20% is :)
Keep in mind that in my opinion the only one of our squad who might fetch more than £8m in my own option is willock. And that is not a bad amount of money for us
Edit. Just done the math. You ribbing us. 20% of 50 is obviously 10. I should pay more attention [Post edited 16 Aug 2022 8:43]

Surely it’s 30% of any profit Palace get over what they paid us | | | |

Just to say, thanks for the info on what Zaha does off the pitch. That's impressive to read and shows his on pitch persona is not all he is. Just wish he'd cheer up a bit. | | | |

Wonderful skills from Eze and one in the eye for Danny Murphy, who was moaning on about Eze's allegedly poor closing down at the start of the game.
Liverpool had most of the possession - 75% at the point at which Palace scored - but Palace had a couple of gilt-edged chances which they failed to put away.
So pleased to see Eze delivering at this level  |  |
| "Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1." |

Yes it's a shame. And I think it's affected Eze's enjoyment of the game a bit. He's not his usual irrepressible self these days. |  | | |

Zaha is a petulant baby. It's a shame because he is extremely talented. Definitely the reason no big club ever gambled on him since returning to palace

Playing in the same team as Zaha is holding Eze back IMO. |  | | |

Seems to have knocked the post-injury rust off and is getting better and better. Has earned Viera's trust too.
Oddly, he's been missing an end product so far this season. Missed a great opportunity against Arsenal and I believe he did the same last night. Once he starts finding the goal again, sky's the limit. | | | |
