Frankly, Zaha is Eagles’ Neymar
FRANK DE BOER has described Wilfried Zaha as the Neymar of Crystal Palace.
The new Eagles’ boss has been impressed by winger Zaha’s trickery and willingness to run at players at the Asia Trophy in Hong Kong.
De Boer, who played for Ajax, Barcelona and Holland, said: “In his skills he is a lot like Neymar, to control of the ball at the highest speed.
“He also has the quick feet and he’s gone. Very skinny, so fast, every touch, every pass. Wilf is fantastic offensively and defensively.”
