Glasner’s Crystal Palace Future in Serious Doubt
Crystal Palace are considering the future of manager Oliver Glasner following a dramatic downturn in form that has intensified pressure at Selhurst Park.
The Austrian coach, 51, has already confirmed he will leave the club when his contract expires this summer. However, Palace’s recent struggles have sparked internal discussions over whether he will see out the remainder of the campaign.
A section of the club’s travelling supporters turned on Glasner during Thursday’s 1-1 Conference League draw away at Zrinjski Mostar, chanting “we want Glasner out” as frustrations spilled into public view.
One Win in 15 Games
Palace have managed just one victory in their past 15 matches across all competitions. During that run:
-
They suffered a shock FA Cup defeat to non-league Macclesfield
-
They slipped to within eight points of the Premier League relegation zone
-
They have failed to win at home since November
Despite a morale-boosting away win against rivals Brighton & Hove Albion earlier this month, consistency has deserted the Eagles at a crucial stage of the season.
With 12 league matches remaining, Palace face mounting pressure to steady their form and secure safety.
Glasner: “I Take Responsibility”
Speaking ahead of Sunday’s clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers, Glasner accepted responsibility for the team’s dip.
“I’m always realistic, and we’re not in the best moment right now. I understand, and I take responsibility for everything because I’m responsible for the whole team.”
He acknowledged difficulties integrating new signings and replacing players sold in recent windows, while also pointing to the physical demands of juggling domestic and European commitments.
“Right now, I’m just not good enough to replace the players we sold… not good enough to integrate the new players… not good enough that we can cope with the schedule we had.”
A Historic Spell at Palace
Despite the current crisis, Glasner remains the most successful manager in Palace’s history. He guided the club to:
-
Their first-ever FA Cup triumph last season
-
Community Shield success
-
European qualification and Conference League participation
His tenure delivered what many supporters consider the club’s greatest campaign.
What Happens Next?
Palace host bottom-placed Wolves on Sunday in what could prove a pivotal fixture for Glasner’s immediate future. The second leg of their Conference League tie against Zrinjski follows next week.
Whether the board opts for stability until summer or a decisive change now could define Palace’s final months of the season.
