Hourihane wasn't breaking into the Englsnd side, he wasn't on a lucrative five year contract and he had just finished a season mid table in the Fourth Division. Zaha has gone backwards since leaving Palace but that wasn't foreseen nor was it the intention when he joined United.
Yes get what your saying and using Zaha as a comparison is a bit silly from me, but the gist of my point is that 200k for a decent league 1 potential championship player is low especially bearing in mind today's ridiculous prices.
At least 500k with add ons. I don't care about a year left. We seem to always have an excuse as to why we've let a player go for tuppence. Barnsley must be pis@ing themselves!
