Glasner's Departure Leaves Palace in Crisis
Crystal Palace is reeling from the news that manager Oliver Glasner has announced his departure at the end of the season. The 46-year-old, who led the club to their first major trophy by beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final just over eight months ago, revealed he had informed the chairman Steve Parish of his decision back in October.
Glasner's parting shot was aimed squarely at Palace's owners for failing to invest in the squad after a record-breaking summer. He lamented that the club lacked the resources needed to sustain European campaigns and satisfy their ambitious manager. The Austrian's frustration with the situation was evident as he stated his hope that the departure would inspire a "turnaround" in fortune.
However, Glasner's exit marks the latest in a series of high-profile departures at Palace. France striker Jean-Philippe Mateta has 18 months left on his contract and is wanted by Juventus, while Adam Wharton, Daniel Muñoz, and Daichi Kamada are also coveted by bigger clubs.
The club's future now hangs precariously in the balance. With their next manager to be appointed, Palace faces an uphill battle to get back on track after a dismal run of nine games without a win. The departure of Glasner, who achieved significant success during his tenure, has left fans wondering what could have been done differently.
Glasner's own future is uncertain, but it's clear that he will be tempted by other top-flight clubs. Given his impressive track record in south London and ability to deliver results, it won't be long before he receives interest from bigger clubs looking for a manager with his credentials. One place on his radar could be Manchester United, where he would relish the opportunity to test himself against some of the best teams in the world.
For Palace, however, the only thing that's certain is that they must act swiftly to address their current crisis. The appointment of a new manager and significant investment are now crucial if they hope to avoid relegation and restore their status as a top-flight team.

the guy who led them to the fa cup final was saying out loud that the owners didnt invest enough in the squad lol like, come on steve parish 
but seriously this is bad news for the team and their fans they gotta find a new manager ASAP or else its gonna be a long season 
i heard manchester united are sniffing around oliver glasner though thats not good news for palace 
hopefully someone will come in and fix everything 
. Glasner seems like a really dedicated guy who wanted to take Palace to the next level, but it's clear that the owners weren't willing to back him up 
. Now he's off, and Palace is left wondering what could've been done differently 
. I'm curious to see how they handle this situation, because if they don't make some serious changes, it's gonna be tough for them to stay up 
.
but now palace is in crisis mode, and i'm not sure if anythin can fix it... maybe they need someone with fresh eyes to take over? 
...glasner's departure does feel like a massive blow, especially after everything he achieved with the team...i can see why he'd be frustrated about not getting more backing from the owners, it does seem like they've been holding back on investments 
...he'd definitely be a great fit for old trafford, especially given his track record at palace 
. They need to seriously step up their investment game and give the manager some real backing if they want to compete with bigger clubs. The fact that top clubs are sniffing around for Glasner is a clear indication that Palace needs an overhaul 
. I'm keeping an eye on them, hoping they can turn things around before it's too late 
. Time to make some serious changes at Selhurst Park 
its like palace just gave up on themselves? 
the fans are gonna be super disappointed trust me ill still root for them but come on ppl we need a solid manager ASAP 
I need to see some numbers or reports on what the owners have been spending before we can have any real conversation about the team's future
