Big No from me. He does not have the work ethic required for a Glasner team. Look at how players have improved since he left, right across the pitch. He was a great servant to the club and we thank him for that but he was paid very well for it. He also held us to ransom until the end of his contract last year until the last minute preventing us looking for an adequate replacement. If he cared about Palace not his own personal gain he would not have done this. I hope SP will not push through his recruitment against a manager's wish like he did in the past a good post. I agree, however, not sure he held us to ransom. The issue for me was that we didn't sign a young winger/striker a year before Wilf left. He could have had a year on the bench coming to terms with the Prem league and then would be in a better position to replace Wilf if/when he left. Semenyo for example was linked with us but joined Bournemouth in Jan 2023. He would have been ideal and can play on either wing

We knew way in advance that he wasn't signing a new one. And/or Olise was already signed as the Wilf replacement.

I am unsure about Wilf coming back, he has lost some pace, however a slight change to formation to 3-5-2, Wilf up front with Mateta, Wilf has enough pace for most centre halves, got a feeling that would equal a lot of goals, just a thought

What’s he like in the dressing room? He would need to play 2nd fiddle now or forget it. The last thing we need is a disrupter. I’m not saying he is but caution needed.

Interesting thread. Seems to be a 50/50 split.

A very big No from me . Just read a bit on News now where he said he didnt want to be remembered as just a Palace player , so No .
When your children are teenagers, it’s important to have a dog so that someone in the house is happy to see you |
