Glasner does deserve this sh1t. I hope he leaves and finds a team with some belief and backbone.

Glasner is as much to blame as anyone. His refusal to use his squad earlier in the season has led to this team being in the state it is now. We were flat and lacking the pace we showed earlier in the season. I’ve defended his persistence with 3 at the back regardless of personnel but his stubbornness and refusal to use his squad is costing us.

I accept we’re not the same without Sarr Munoz and Kamada but Uche and Nketiah should have been playing more games. Mateta looks like he’ll never score another goal in open play.

As the saying goes, players win games, teams win cups, and squads win leagues. We have a cup winning manager. If he does go to a big six club he’ll be no different.
 
No win in 5, (3 losses) after playing just one decent opponent.

Our defence is faltering, our forwards couldn’t hit a cows arse with a banjo and unsurprisingly our paper thin squad has meant that just 4 absences (injury or otherwise), has left us looking like a bottom 6 team.

We desperately need Sarr, Munoz and Richards back to give us some right sided strength and the way Pino is playing I reckon we need to buy another forward.

3 or 4 new players in the window probably needed.
 
We desperately need some injection into this squad. Somebody else mentioned it but it's true, without Munoz and Sarr we have no attacking threat whatsoever.

Weird thing is without the ECL I genuinely think we would be in the top 6.
We look tired and devoid of any attacking threat.

To make it even worse for me I just needed a Mateta goal to complete my £10 bet builder and win me £680... My own fault really for backing him to score with how he's been playing.

Have to question the great Glasner.

Doing same thing for months expecting different result.

Hes the boss and tbh all this about playing too many games? So mix it up!!

Since Ebs went there is no goal threat.

Train the players to score.

No goal scorers in MF or attack

If i was a defender id be well pissed off with those in front of me

Spurs were awful but we showed no threat

Pino, Devenney, Kamada, not good enough (and please no Kamada is great fans)

Depressing and now watch the slide

Sorry but Glasner needs to own this and not just blame the board

Normal service has resumed

We will all remember 2025

Digging out someone who didn't even play today due to injury is low. The last 4 games has shown we don't have a Kamada replacement. He makes things tick in the middle. Absurd assessment.

Will we even get 1 or 2 though
 
That was the worst I've seen us play in a long, long time. If it had been against somebody who had actually bothered to turn up it could have been an embarrassing scoreline.

But two disallowed goals is the most Richarlison thing I've ever seen 😆
 
Next three games - Fulham, Newcastle, Villa - will surely be three straight defeats, without Palace scoring.

Will Glasner continue after this...?

If someone said a year ago we'd win the cup and shield but have to be shite in some games whilst playing in Europe with a thin squad but still in the top half - who wouldn't take that?

Thinking back I sold my soul and all future happiness at Selhurst in the 91st minute at Wembley so I guess I cant complain . Many will be the same .

I do believe there is a buy back clause on NYE though so Im doing all I can to cash that in

That’s just not true.

Clinton said it about 20 times. We dominated Spurs. We just couldn’t put the ball in the net.

Build out, good. Midfield broke lines like knife through butter. Entered the final third with ease…it’s just finding the player who can finish we’re lacking right now.

That’s sort of the whole point.

There were three headers I think, none of which were on target, plus Devenny with a reaction so bizarre I thought the whistle had gone when he was about 4 yards from goal. I can’t remember Vicario making a proper save, I find it mind bending to acknowledge JPM and others were even on the pitch at any stage.

Sometimes it’s sheer willpower to get the ball in the back of the net and we looked completely absent of that today as we have on other occasions.

There’s no wind in our sails, no fight in our hearts, etc. etc.

We look like a team loathed to be playing and without any desire to even get a goal let alone a result.

It’s very worrying, Spuds were awful today and could have had 4 without doing much else.

You seriously pinning you hopes on Kamada returning? After 1.5 seasons im glad hes out.

Munoz and Richards and Sarr the real losses.

Id go as far as saying Kamada one of poorest players ive seen in a Palace shirt. Lightweight and never scores.

Just my opinion. People only praise him
When hes out of the team

Agreed.
Spurs were very poor yet we made them look incredibly dangerous. Worrying.

His stock must be falling. If he loses a few more then he may not be in a position to move to a bigger team next season. Maybe he should sign a contract at Palace while he has the chance.

Well a season that promised so much a few weeks ago ....

Lack of squad depth .. Mateta reverting back to Mateta under RH.

Midtable averageness beckons once again.

This is all on Parish - I called it pre-season we have no depth in quality, a few injuries and we're stuffed and the last few games have proved it..!!

Parish needs to get his wallet out on the 1st January immediately and bring in at least 3 players - right back we need cover for Munoz, Central midfielder - Hughes, Devenny just ain't good enough and another 10.

Boey, Johnson and Hackney would do fine.

But Parish has got to do it - otherwise we're gong to lose Glasner and all the progress of last season and the start of this will be for nothing..!!

If Parish can't/doesn't do that then he needs to go and leave it to someone who can..!!

Kamada was part of our 19 game unbeaten run.
