It's taken a while to get comfortable enough to just let go and trust the club fully after a decade and a half of Fat Mike and his Bebop and Rocksteady cronies. I love the professional process, research, interviews, presentations, references. I think Charnley just carried a massive Sports Direct bag and mug around for a bit and the job was his, spit on the handshake £45k a year ..........sorted.

Groundhog63 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Stay humble Ironic that there's a "get Olise/Anderson/Eze" vibe getting some toots 😂 Almost like it's ok for a self styled (by some) "big club" to help themselves to a "little club's" (by the same people) players 🤔 I watched that Eze, in house, vid where he's talking about Freeman selling Palace to him. I mean unless Freeman also said "if nothing else it will be a stepping stone to a bigger club" then what he sold to Eze, and by extention Olise, is coming together. Right manager, right players, they're not a small time as some would suggest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Freedman will be interesting. Palace have assembled quite a fun squad there, and got many young players, which he may have been heavily involved in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right manager, right players, they're not a small time as some would suggest. Interesting one this. Freedman has been personally involved in persuading all these players to come to Palace. With Wharton part of the draw with Dougie was apparently he'd been tracking Wharton since well before he broke into their first team. Personal touch. But.... Palace slowly, slowly have been on a buy to sell model. It's taken time because when he came there was no money, serious FFP issues and no one to sell. Part of the pitch has been come to Palace and you play first team football. That's why Guehi, Eze, Olise and Wharton chose us. There comes a time, though when you do in fact need to sell. It's all very well holding Zaha to ransom - that was a very special relationship - but to attract new blood you need to show that Palace isn't a prison but a pathway to glory. Yep, one more season with this team and European football is more than plausible but there's an obvious ceiling and we have too many players that would enhance any CL squad (note squad!!). We need to sell to get the next gen. The trick will be -and Parish is smart - not to do a Southampton or possibly a Brighton and lose them all at once. One a season - tops two. Our assets are Eze - right age for a move Olise - by consent generally considered the best player we've ever had Guehi - has that young English leader home grown thing - most likely to leave Andersen - the underrated one but actually the match if Guehi and wrong age bracket Doucoure - the forgotten one - our season fell apart when he was injured not when Olise and Eze were out Wharton - early days but just wow Richards - may look odd on this list but pedigree and only held back by the two ahead of him. Expect his tock to rise next year (sick note alert) Mateta - carefully left off the list Next note is that 10 years' later we're about to build our mainstand - obvious money pit and obvious scepticism about ring-fenced funding. Someone needs to go this season to avoid 4 leaving next! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that Olise has been impressed by Glasner's start and stays on for another season at least. The last thing he wants is to go to Man U and do a Zaha! Sort of agree. This involves though Olise deciding to stay because someone somewhere will trigger his release clause - quite possibly multiple clubs. For a Palace fan the nonsense with Chelsea this time last year is a source of hope. He could do it again - Glasner helps. Money is not the draw with him - it's exposure and playing footie week in week out. So this Palace fan hopes optimistically as possibly. The other thing is the better sources say he has quite a demanding list of requirements - he's very switched on about his career apparently: first team football - rules out maybe City (Pep) and Arsenal (Saka) settled environment - rules out Liverpool and Man U - Spurs dubious CL/European football - thinking Newcastle might well fit the bill - Villa seems a long shot tbh Though if City came calling he would of course go. I'm not quite that deluded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many times on this forum people think all of these guys just go after the money and living in some flash city. I think this is absolutely true. And I would add that we have typically only signed players who are of that mentality. Howe has certainly done a great job helping players improve but those players have to be of that ambitious, professional mentality for our plan to work.
