Who is Zaha similar to?

United have had some great wingers. But who out of all of them does he remind you of.

Is he a Ronaldo?
Or is he a Obertan?

Not long ago our fans were convinced Obertan was the big deal (not me though). However, who remembers that funny player

Obertan and Zaha have many similarities. Pace, trickery and both their crossing ability is mismatch. However, maybe it was Obertan's mentality that let him down.

The honest truth is that we don't know how he will turn out. Always seems to be a fascination to compare new players to current / older ones - can we not just let Zaha develop and see how he turns out.

He has played 3 games for us, yet a judgement is to be made on whether he will be a superstar or just a 'bog-standard' EPL player. Let's not forget that very few players make the 'superstar' level, so if he turns out to be a decent quality winger, then I will be happy.

He has shown good potential, but how good he becomes depends on his own natural talent, hard work and luck.

Doesn't seem overly brilliant.

If he's anymore than a fringe player this season it's a sad state of affairs

Kinsang how much did he cost utd?
Was it more or less what ronaldo cost? ronaldo always showed promise and zaha has showed promise at palace so the OP has just asked a question of what people think...not judging or putting pressure on the lad.

Vidicschin. If you was on the boards in 09 around November time, you will know I am not talking rubbish. Especially after the Wolfsburg game when he done that piece of skill, a lot of fans on here were stating how he was better than Nani. Some of our fans, actually quite a lot at the time wanted us to sell Nani in the Jan 2010 window.
