“They Paid Far Too Much” – Pundit Slams Crystal Palace Over €30.5m Midfielder
Crystal Palace have come under fire from pundits after their €30.5 million summer signing was labelled “not good enough for top-flight football.”
The midfielder, who arrived amid high expectations, has endured a difficult start to life in the Premier League. His performances have sparked debate among fans and experts, with many questioning whether the Eagles overspent on a player who has yet to deliver.
One outspoken pundit criticised the deal, arguing that Palace had taken a major financial gamble that has not paid off:
“They paid far too much. For €30.5m, you expect a midfielder who can dictate games, win battles, and raise the team’s level. Right now, he’s struggling to cope with the intensity of the Premier League. He looks far from the standard required.”
Supporters have been divided, with some urging patience and pointing out that adapting to English football often takes time, while others share the pundit’s concerns about poor value for money.
With the season still in its early stages, the midfielder has time to prove his worth. However, pressure is already mounting as Palace fight to climb the Premier League table. A strong run of performances may be the only way to silence the critics and justify his hefty price tag.
