Crystal Palace arguably had the most successful end to the transfer window of any Premier League club, and Saturday’s game against Leicester will be a chance for manager Oliver Glasner to unleash his new-look Eagles side.
His potential back three of Marc Guehi, Trevoh Chalobah and Maxence Lacroix may not even have been at the club given a different set of circumstances, as Palace did a flurry of late business.
At one point in the summer it seemed as if the Eagles were going to be raided for several of their top stars, with Newcastle bidding hard for Marc Guehi and interest in Eberechi Eze - on top of the sales of Michael Olise and Joachim Andersen.
