I'd include Palmer in that list too.Because Akanji was bought for 15m. Even if he didn't work, it was not a big deal. For 80-90m, you expect a starter at the very least. I don't think Eze or Nunez are better than Kovacic, Bernardo, Foden, KDB or Rodri. There are better midfielders out there, and plenty around their level that would cost much less.
The problem is, we are too late in the transfer market, with KDB's injury and lack of depth, so there is an urgent need of bringing someone. A position you never want to be in.
