#3 Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace)

Crystal Palace v Newcastle United - Premier League
Wilfried Zaha style of play is very similar to Eden Hazard.

The Crystal Palace talisman was the last signing made by legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

He lasted just one season at United and he was loaned back to Crystal Palace after which he rejoined them permanently.

He is scoring and creating crucial goals for Palace and was the catalyst in Chelsea's surprise defeat at Stamford Bridge last season, where he scored the equalizer and set up Christian Benteke's winning goal.

Again this season when the Blues faced Palace at Selhurst Park, he again the defence apart and scored the winner.

His playing style is very similar to Hazard as he is very direct in his dribbling. He enjoys attacking the defenders with skill and trickery and he has rescued Palace many times like Hazard has done for Chelsea.

Zaha is valued around £35m and it seems a reasonable price tag considering how important he has been to Palace in recent seasons.

He has been playing in the premier league for more than four seasons and has plenty of experience at the age of 25.

If he moves to Stamford Bridge, he could prove to be good value for money since he is only 25 and his best years are yet to come and his dribbling style of play makes him a good replacement for the Belgian maestro.
