Ally Quinn says:

Kermiki Pdang says:

Zaha skill and strength unmatchable 。。。。。

Cyrille Blaise says:

People questioning his comments should look at virgil or maguire.
All from small teams but are now dominant at the highest stage.
Since Wilf left united hes proven so many times he belongs at the top.
He could be a real madrid player coz jovic or vasquez and many others aint better than him

Steve C says:

Why has this guy still got a job? Not only does he talk out his arse but he's also so drool.

The Saint ST1 says:

Some of you guys are donkeys honestly…. zaha can’t play for the top two Spanish teams?? So for arguments sake he isn’t better than benzema?… ridiculous comments here

Stuart Hossack says:

Still waiting for that first Zaha goal for the season… I would quite go as far as Real Madrid or Barca,Graeme.

Luke Taylor says:

You know the rule of smoking weed, puff puff pass not keeping the joint for yourself.

D2EZY says:

At this point I think it’s a known fact that he has an agenda against pogba

Ray Bans says:

Everyone saying Souness is on crack, 99% of the time you are right, but sorry on this occasion you are WRONG!

Firstly, after reading comments and seeing some people say Dembele is better than Zaha makes it very obvious that where a player plies his trade CAN hurt him badly.

You're only saying these things as Zaha plays for Palace. Had he been doing this for Tottenham for 3 years you'll not be so sure as to say 'Souness is smoking something'.

Zaha is may not be significantly better than Dembele, but he is defo better, NO DEBATING. His stats as well as game intelligence (which has improved dramatically in the last 3 seasons) proves this. If you watched some games (hell…just watch highlights of the Champs League alone) and you'll see Dembele's shocking (and I mean SHOCKING) decision making.

Most of it is due to his age and lack of experience (which he will gain) but THAT is EXACTLY why Zaha is better than him. We are talking of very similar players here, attacking, fast, skilful, athletic etc but the main differences being one is older and plays for a mid-table club, while the other is younger with A LOT of potential but plays for arguably the best club in the world.

Put it this way, had the roles been reversed and Dembele was playing for Palace and Zaha playing for Barca, I would bet my bottom dollar that NONE of you saying Dembele is better will be saying the same thing. Why you ask?

Well because it is fairly obvious you go off what other (well respected) pundits (not souness) says and would have been saying something along the lines of 'oh but he lacks consistency, that's why I can't put him above Zaha…but he WILL be better than Zaha in the future, no doubt'. That is EXACTLY what you'll be saying as to not sound foolish infront of others that dictate the decisions you make.

You'll not only mention Dembele's inconsistency (which is coming from his attitude problems) but no doubt take Zaha's stats A LOT more serious as he'll have been doing it for 'BARCELONA' for a coupe seasons. I mean stats wise, Zaha is above Dembele, playing for a WORSER TEAM, so how on earth could you say he's not better.

Brian Whitehead says:

Zaha is a top attacking player utd should kept him got rid of him paid 50 million for martial zaha does better in a worse team

proper parcels says:

I'm reporting this video to the police

Ajay Job says:

Football saved Graeme Souness imagine otherwise he would probably be in the streets begging ?? he legit knows nothing who is wearing that suite

Haroon Nadim says:

Graeme Souness is a retarted clown who is on crack everyday

InTheCommision ' says:

No offence to Michael Owen, but if he couldn't play regularly in Real Madrid then Zaha wouldn't

DBOY738 says:

Souness said they have big squads, he never said he’s a certi starter. People have selective hearing on here. Zaha can go right to the top

Ned Ojniboji says:

A lot of these deluded pundits need to get the sack dreadful opinions never backed up by facts o stats and the majority are heavily biased towards there former club

Rudi Foulkes says:

He’s a very good player but not a Madrid or Barca starter

Mdizzy says:

I lol'd at the title.

K says:

Ashley Cole will always be a gunner.

Man from the Orient says:

My gosh, Souness has to be the worst pundit of all time. Zaha doesn’t have a football brain, he lacks intelligence, isn’t profilic enough to play for Barca or Real

The Bearded Critic's says:

Remember that This Guy Signed Ali Dia Now If You Have No Idea Go And Do Some Research

Velldog says:

Wouldn't mind seeing him at Liverpool to be honest.

Circle 25 says:

no way near good enough for that level
