Key strength: Pace and recovery
Overlapping full-back
At 34, Nathaniel Clyne remains a steadying presence in Crystal Palace's backline, anchoring the right flank as the Eagles sit 14th in the table. With 7 appearances and 630 minutes under his belt this season, the veteran English full-back brings invaluable Premier League experience to Oliver Glasner's side—particularly valuable when partnering with the club's defensive lynchpin Marc Guéhi (78-rated). Though yet to register a goal or assist, Clyne's contributions lie in his defensive positioning and reliable delivery from wide areas, traits that have kept him relevant despite a modest €750,000 market valuation reflecting his advancing years. As Palace's younger talents like Tyrick Mitchell (73) and Chris Richards (73) develop around him, Clyne's consistent presence offers the defensive stability a mid-table Premier League outfit desperately needs. His contract runs through 2026, suggesting Palace value his mentorship and squad depth as much as his on-pitch output.
