Glasner leads Crystal Palace to the FA Cup final-a new glimmer of hope!
Crystal Palace made a bumpy start of the Premier League this season. The team never won in the first eight games and has the worst start to the season with only five goals scored in the same period since the 1992/93 season. Despite this catastrophic balance sheet, club president Steve Parish tirelessly captures coach Oliver Glasner.
The support of Parish shows not only in words, but also in deeds, while he praises Glasner for his positive attitude and leadership style. The trainer himself emphasizes the cohesion within the team and the support of his players. Last season, however, Crystal Palace was able to look back on an upswing when the team won six of seven league games and landed in twelfth place.
Success in the FA Cup
Despite the difficult start in the league, Crystal Palace caused a stir in the FA Cup. The team moved into the final after an impressive 3-0 win against Aston Villa and is now in the club history in the FA Cup final for the third time. Oliver Glasner is the first Austrian coach to achieve this prestigious opportunity. The fan base will be expected next Saturday in the Wembley Stadium to support the team.
There was a certain squad break in the last transfer period: Michael Olise was sold to Bayern Munich in summer. Nevertheless, Crystal Palace remains well positioned with talented players and has the potential to improve in the second half of the season. Glasner already showed that he is able to lead the team by even seeing it in the European ranking lists.
Upward trend and challenge
After a long wait, the team only achieved the second win of the season in the 14th league game. By the end of November, Crystal Palace was in the lower half of the table, but the upswing could be decisive in the decisive phase of the season. The next games will show whether the trust that Parish puts in Glasner will be rewarded and whether the team can experience an upswing in the league and the FA Cup.
