At the moment, the following probably seems unlikely to many however I can see Graham Potter being in the frame come the end of the season given how wretched Chelsea's run of form has been domestically (unless they pull off the miracle of Euro cup win). Can't see Potter staying on as Manager into 2023/24 season and yet a club like Palace should seem like a perfect fit for rebuild; opportunity and ambition of the kind that he was able to steer for Brighton that he achieved so effectively.

I'm not sure he's quite the right fit for us - not that it's ever stopped us before. I just think his tactical tinkering muddies the water for a small squad like ours.

Red and Blue Army!

I am convinced that the only answer is Roy.

What I want to say is that it doesn't surprise me as Rodgers is such a yes man.
However, I feel I'm being a little harsh.

Red and Blue Army!

It would be beyond incredible if the club appointed Roy permanently at his age, but I wouldn't rule out the idea of him staying on to help out if the club can't get thier first choice target (whoever that turns out to be) come the summer.

Though I feel he did a decent job overall, Vieira did appear to be third or forth choice (at least), and I wonder if his appointment was partly due to a lack of options and time that summer. It would be far from ideal but I wouldn't object to Roy continuing as interim manager come preseason, if the only available and willing permanent candidates are not ones the club fully believe in.

Clearly you missed the fact that Palace played yesterday and were a revelation,Roy could ,in time, bring Paddy along as an eventual replacement.Age is a number,the worlds leading country is run by a chap called Joe Biden who is 81 in November. Don't be so ageist!
