Crystal Palace's £210m SCR budget laid bare after Strand Larsen and Johnson deals

🚨 EXCLUSIVE 🚨
www.wearepalace.uk www.wearepalace.uk

I did wonder where we were after the Johnson and JSL deals in Jan.

Although we haven't breached PSR (or the new SCR - Squad Cost Ratio) we don't have too much head room left. Whilst we don't need to sell Mateta or Wharton, it does seemingly impact our ability to bring in new players.

I think we are in a situation where we need to sell to buy. Therefore, it seem that we will surely see a few players out the door over the summer.

Lacroix
Mateta
Nketiah (hopefully)
Devenny (looks like he is on his way).
Rak-Sakyi
Esse (possibly)
Franca (seems to going on loan again)

If the first 5 on that list can be sold for good prices, that should enable new players to come in. Maybe some deals can be done with an obligation to buy, so cost doesn't appear until the following year's figures.
 
Makes the signings seem even worse now.

Overspent massively on relatively poor replacements for the the players they're supposed to come in to replace. In order to invest in the squad, which is massively needed, we will need to sell a couple of our best players to compensate for the overspend. The prices seemed mad at the time, now they're just beginning to look plain stupid. Awful planning.

I think to many people are to quick to right of JSL, Pino and Johnson, i think Larsen will become a top Premier league player, like Mateta wasn't and now is, Pino is a good player, and will improve, hopefully Sage can get Johnson back to the level he was a couple of years ago, fingers crossed, Nketiah and Mateta are the ones IMO, we need to move out.

I thought we got a good season out of Pino? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Took a little while to adapt here and there but overall a good first season.

In my opinion:
1) Larsen will not ‘become a top Premier league player’. His first touch is poor and he’s easily bullied. Can’t see how you can coach that out of him. May prove to be adequate if overpriced.
2) Agree Pino is a good player with the potential to be very good.
3) Johnson is a basket case.Was never any good a couple of years ago as you claim. My Forest mate couldn’t believe the fee they got from Spurs. At Spurs the fans couldn’t stand him.Scoring some far post tap ins doesn’t make up for no control, poor passing and no ability to beat a man. He’s the player we should be trying to get rid off even if we only get back half the money.
4) Nketiah. There is a player in there somewhere but always injured. Sell for the right money.
5) Mateta. Give him a bit more money and keep if he will sign a new contract. Can you imagine a forward line of Larsen and an injured Nketiah?

Really, we are Palace, based in Wigan & clickbait on every EPL club, if you believe them, then I feel sorry for you. They only clickbait every other clickbait site & not very well.

I had cross checked it against this website as well.

PSRwatch - Premier League spending room and squad-cost risk

Plain-English Premier League spending room, transfer effects, UEFA rules and old PSR context for every club.

Does appear to be truth in it.
