Alan Shearer, a Match of the Day pundit and former Newcastle United striker, has predicted that Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner will be axed by the club this week. The prediction comes after Glasner was involved in an outburst against the board during their 2-1 defeat to Sunderland last weekend.
Glasner had reportedly vented his frustrations at the stadium's directors and expressed dissatisfaction with the team's performance, which led to speculation that he may be on the verge of losing his job. Shearer believes Glasner will not be seen at the training ground this week, citing a lack of confidence in the manager's ability to turn the team around.
The prediction from Shearer highlights the pressure on Glasner to deliver results for Palace, who are currently struggling in mid-table. With several high-profile clubs reportedly sniffing around, it seems likely that the club will make a change if they fail to get out of their current rut. However, the situation remains fluid, and only time will tell whether Shearer's prediction comes true.
Glasner has been under pressure since his appointment at Palace last summer, with fans and pundits alike questioning his tactics and ability to adapt to the Premier League. The defeat to Sunderland was a particularly embarrassing one for the team, who have struggled to find consistency and win games against weaker opponents.
