He's had a few calamity moments, but he was very good in spells when he was alongside Kompany. Stick him next to a leader and he'll be a good capture for somebody.
Suppose it doesn't matter too much to a club like City but they'll have to take a huge hit on the fee. No concentration at all, awful on the ball and a constant bombscare. Telling that Deschamps ended up playing two players who weren't even in the original squad ahead of him at the Euros.
His end product is nowhere near good enough for that amount of money. His tricks look great, but 10 goals and 10 assists in two seasons doesn't scream £30m to me.
Great deal for Palace if they can then spend it on Benteke.
Benteke would do well in a mid-table team who focus all their attacking play through width, which is what Palace aspire to be and how they play.
He was never going to work at Liverpool as they had one winger at the club when he signed, then loaned him out in late August. Nonsense management from Brodge.
