Why should SP hold on to Marc for the rest of the season, basically four months just to please a manager who’s announced he’s leaving anyway. He has to do what’s best for the club which has been and will be around a lot longer than Ollie’s two years.
Imo the reason Ollie had his rant is to make it perfectly clear to any possible future employers that our recent demise is not his fault, in other words self preservation
This is my concern/resentment.
Ollie deservedly took a heap of credit for our success last season. In the same vain, he’ll receive a lot of criticism and blame when things are going so horrendously wrong, as they are now. Rightly so, he’s in charge of the team.
When things have gone badly before, my one desire is always for the manager to address the issue, confirm he has an understanding of what has gone wrong, and inspire some hope of fixing it/finding a solution.
When the manager confirms he’s off, therefore has little to lose if the club suffers the worst consequences, and refuses to take any accountability for our atrocious situation, for me the whole situation is a write-off. It smacks of “this isn’t my fault and I don’t care, it’s Palace’s problem not mine”.
I support Palace, I don’t support the career of Oliver Glasner. If he is demonstrating an inability to solve our current woes and a refusal to take accountability for the situation, I’d really rather someone who will, regardless of what has occurred in the past.
If Glasner is unable to resolve the current situation, it is in his best interests to make it seem as though it’s anybody else’s fault but his own for the sake of his career. That would appear to be what he is doing.
