Wilfred Zaha - an epilogue

Things don't always turn out as you wish. It's a shame really. The boy with the world at his feet has taken more backward steps recently.

It just goes to show that pace, skill and a big head aren't all that's required to make it as a top level professional footballer. 

After announcing to the world that he was the next great thing Wilfred Zaha has gone backwards. It was never meant to be this way...

After Fergie mindlessly blew £15 million on the self appointed teenage protege, Wilfred must have thought he'd made it. The biggest club in Britain wanted him.

Unfortunately, no one told him Fergie was retiring and handing over to Mr Moyes. After bit parts in early games Zaha was shipped off to lowly Cardiff. 

This is the guy who wanted to show Premiership defenders how good he was. So, how did he do?

Well he only managed to play 15 games all season netting...never. This gives him an awesome career of 138 games in total and 18 goals. Yep 18. Defences everywhere must be quaking. 

There is obviously something lacking or maybe he's had far too much too early. He's still young though and could still come good. 

Thing is, I doubt it!
