what about Carrick if ManUre don't make him the longterm solution?

Definitely not. He’s only really interested in Man U.
Paul Carrick is available and can hold a tune.
Richards cut his foor v Arsenal just before Christmas. I think he missed 2 games and was back v Villa in early Jan.
Not sure this can be used as an excuse for our terrible form/results from mid Dec to mid Feb.
Yes a few other players were out too, but that's why you have a squad - players get injured and suspended etc.
We lost one player to Afcon, yes an important one, but again we knew Sarr was going about 18 months beforehand.
Ultimately our squad players are not good enough and haven't been for some time.

Thank heavens the club didn't have the same view as some on here.

This thread should now be locked.
It should then be pinned at the top of Palace Talk - Forever a reminder of just how wrong some people can be and to give us all a good laugh when we need one.
Thank you for the incredible memories OG…and the trophies.

I echo these sentiments.
I wish Oliver Glasner every success in his future endeavours.
Why, with a better manager, with a plan B, we might be in the Champions League 😊

Roll on midnight on the 30th June, when OG’s contract expires and this thread can be locked.

I think this thread should indeed be locked. It'll be quite an interesting time capsule to look back on one day.
It shows the trends in the majority view, that Glasner is an excellent coach upon whom we were unlikely to improve, a view largely maintained even during a run of poor form, on to widespread anger with his conduct to the point many felt he would (should) be sacked for misconduct, to an uneasy acceptance that continuing with him until the end of the season was probably the most sensible option, to a gradual thawing in the relationship, to the very high point in Leipzig. The glossy media version of the story may miss a lot of that, but it's all here.
The thread also captures some of the fine point debates about Glasner. For many he was an excellent coach who took the team to a higher level, though for some he simply benefited from having perhaps our best ever set of players. He was either very consistent and clear headed in his tactical approach, or unbearably rigid depending on how you look at it. He was either right to call out the board for not backing him, or a classic case of the manager as petulant child, demanding the club make poor financial decisions that he wouldn't be around to carry the can for. Some players developed hugely under him, though many hope at least one of two of our more expensive signings will do better under someone else.
I suppose it goes to show that there is always more to the story than might meet the eye, even with the most successful managers.

Brings tears.
I know this was a discussion of other threads but the FA Cup win is for me the single greatest moment in my Palace supporting life (that has been all my life just FYI!).
I never, ever thought I'd see that. To win a European trophy is just ludicrous and in a quiet moment of reflection, OG really did deliver far more than I ever imagined possible. I think it's been so surreal it doesn't sink in properly sometimes.
What a time it's been.

Just read Olis open letter on the Palace home page, a really decent heartful letter it seems, seems strange hes leaving but probably feels to go out whilst on top as opposed to be being sacked.
A truly memorable 2 years thanks to Oliver Glasners guidance a top man and will be sorely missed i fear.

I agree Nick, reading his letter and watching the video made me a tad weepy too.
The man was Class with a capital C. He's gonna be a tough act to follow that's for sure.
Don't think class he did say things that still upsets me when things was going wrong ,
but I will never ignore his massive achievement he has done for us , gave me the greatest day of my palace life , I haven't watched a rerun think I may have a tear in my eye , but thank you again for a fun 30 months
