However, the confirmation that Marc Guehi, captain of Manchester City, would be leaving the club for £20million and Oliver Glasner, manager, would end the season, provided proof.

When Glasner claimed he felt his squad is being “abandoned completely” by the club’s hierarchy, those hopes were all but extinguished on Saturday when Palace fans hoped he would enjoy his final seasons at Selhurst Park.

Although Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney both claimed on Saturday’s Match of the Day that they saw no way for him to stay in charge, according to BBC Sport, there are no immediate plans to sack Glasner.

The Austrian claimed the defender and he had planned the entire week’s trip to the Stadium of Light, but he never learned that Palace had reached a transfer agreement with City on Friday morning.

He claimed on BBC Match of the Day, “I think we are completely abandoned.”

“We don’t feel any support from the squad because we have 12 or 13 players available.”

Selling our captain one day before a Premier League game is the worst thing, they say.

Glasner compared the situation to that of Eberechi Eze’s sale to Arsenal at the start of the Premier League season, blaming both for giving the impression that the club’s heart had been “torn out.”

After winning the FA Cup last year and eventually being admitted to Europe’s Conference League, Glasner has made numerous public appeals for Palace to strengthen their squad so they can compete on a variety of fronts.

However, it is obvious that his pleas have fallen on deaf ears after spending less than £30 million on four players last summer.

For the 2-1 defeat at Sunderland, Glasner appointed two goalkeepers and a number of academy players on the bench. His side haven’t won a Premier League game since December 7th.

Is it appropriate for Glasner to come out like this and be so critical of his own boss, said Julien Laurens, a member of the European football expert? He has previously attacked co-owner Steve Parish and the board.

No manager at any level would be happy if someone from his club said to your captain and perhaps your best player can’t play in the league because they have just sold him to Manchester City on a Friday morning.

Palace are out of both the FA Cup and League Cup at the halfway point of the season, but they are still on pace to stay in the top flight for a 14th season despite having only won one of their last eight Premier League games.

Next month, Palace and Zrinjski Mostar will compete in a two-legged play-off tie in the Conference League.

The South London club could only play 18 games until the end of the season, that is.

The decision to cash in on Guehi now makes sense in Parish’s eyes.

Alan Shearer, a former England international, agrees.

On Match of the Day, he said, “I get his frustration but you look at Crystal Palace as a business.” To get £20 million now, I get that because they would lose a really good player for nothing in the summer.

Connor Coady, a former Wolves defender, told BBC Radio 5 Live: “I don’t like what he has done.

“Seeing them argue against one another doesn’t seem to be the best way to portray Crystal Palace,” said one witness.

“Palace must sell Guehi,” they say. Not Manchester City, but rather Place. With a very small squad, I played for Wolves in Europe. We never complained; instead, we cracked on. That is life, really.

In addition to Michael Olise, Wilfried Zaha, Yannick Bolasie, and, of course, Eze, who all left the club for high fees during Parish’s tenure, Palace have also sold highly sought-after players.

Former England captain Steph Houghton remarked, “The evolution of football clubs is that, unfortunately, your best players move on to better clubs that are playing in the Champions League and European football.

You have Jean-Phillipe Mateta and Adam Wharton, who could be the next two major household names to move, but Glasner is the only one to do that.

Nedum Onouha, an ex-Manchester City defender, stated on BBC Radio 5 Live: “In today’s world, maybe this is Palace’s identity; they will look to sell the younger players.”

“Glasner did a fantastic job, support him,” Gluckner said. Is Glasner mistaken to believe that when the club is actually who they are?

Look no further than Glasner’s post-match remarks on Saturday to find out if there was ever a football manager who appeared to be actively looking for the sack.

After being informed a little over 24 hours prior that captain Guehi was being sold to Manchester City for £20m, Glasner launched into an astonishing tirade in which he claimed the club had “abandoned” the team after they had just lost 2-1 at Sunderland, extending their winless streak to 10 games.

Glasner will argue that his divisive remarks reflect his sincere opinions.

Some within the club are skeptical of Glasner’s alleged motives because they believe Parish should have had no choice but to sack him.

With around £2 million left on his current contract and a pay-off, it might be appropriate for Glasner to depart from Selhurst Park with a pay-off, as he has already stated that he will do so when his contract expires, and it would be appropriate for the coach to do so with a pay-off as soon as possible.

If Glasner’s intention to force him to leave sooner than later, Palace has failed to do so.

After internal discussions, Palace anticipates that Glasner’s position will last until his contract expires at the end of the season.

What the club can do as a whole to improve their current poor form has been the subject of discussions since Sunderland’s defeat.

It appears that Glasner will have to resign and waive any termination package if the club and manager decide to leave before the summer.

In the same way, we shouldn’t discount the fact that Palace would be compensated if another club made a decision to appoint Glasner between now and the end of the season as a result.

For instance, Tottenham are considering changing their management after Thomas Frank’s underwhelming performance since taking over as manager in June.

Before the club’s eventual choice in 2023 to appoint Ange Postecoglou, Glasner spoke with Tottenham before the final meeting.

If Spurs were to appoint Glasner for a potential position, Palace would be due compensation for doing so.

The Premier League has once more teamed up with international leagues and player unions to request that temporary concussion substitutes be tried by law enforcement.

The International Football Association Board (Ifab) has turned down requests to implement temporary replacements on numerous occasions.

28 other competitions and player bodies concur with the Premier League’s new motion.

Major League Soccer, Premier Soccer League South Africa, the European Leagues, Serie A, France’s Professional Football League, and the European Leagues and World Leagues Association are just a few of the players who have co-signed the proposal.

According to the letter, based on available medical and scientific evidence, it is in the player’s best interests to pursue this position.

Before Tuesday’s Ifab’s annual business meeting in London, it has been sent to Ifab.

The Premier League has requested that the trial be held and results fully disclosed in a separate letter from the EFL and the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA).

Following a trial period, permanent concussion substitutes were added to the game’s laws in 2024. Ifab thinks this demonstrates zero concussion tolerance.

A player who is alleged to have had a concussion must be substituted and is prohibited from returning to the field.

However, the Premier League contends that making permanent substitutions increases the risk of a team leaving a player on the field.

Temporary replacements are said to significantly improve the management of concussions right away and give medical teams enough time to evaluate players.

The Premier League will meet with Ifab to discuss the situation, as will Fifa and the international board.

Ifab hopes to advance the concept to its 28-february annual general meeting in Cardiff, where trials might be able to receive final approval.

Many leagues and unions have consistently opposed them despite Ifab’s claim that permanent substitutions are the safest approach.

When Ifab’s trials began in 2021, Fifpro and the PFA first raised objections to them.

The PFA urged temporary substitutes to be used in 2022 to allow medical personnel to conduct more thorough and in-depth examinations of potentially injured players away from the field of play.

At Ifab’s AGM in March 2023, a group of leagues submitted a joint application. The Premier League claimed that it was “disappointed” and that “all available scientific evidence” was being disregarded.

Fifpro reiterated its position on temporary substitutes a few months after being rejected, citing British Journal of Sports Medicine research that suggested that concussions on athletes should take at least 10-15 minutes to be evaluated.

Recent research from the Premier League indicates that between 27% and 53% of concussion victims are not replaced right away in the letter to Ifab.

Temporary substitutes have significantly decreased the number of players returning to play who have been later found to have a concussion in other sports.

Rugby Union saw a decrease of 58% to 8%, while NFL players only saw a decrease in the percentage of players returning to the field.

The Premier League will inform Ifab that temporary replacement trials must be rejected with a detailed justification.

To prevent teams from relying on substitutions to gain a competitive advantage, a regulatory framework has been created.

An oversight body would review all incidents’ video to determine whether they were true, while the opposition team would receive an additional substitute.

The Blues are currently being quoted more than £60 million to complete a deal this month despite having spoken with both Rennes and the 20-year-old’s agent regarding a move.

Although it is known that the France Under-21 international is interested in the move, BBC Sport is aware of rival interest.

The talks come after Stamford Bridge’s internal decision to move forward with signing a center-back by six months rather than the summer.

Other options will also be taken into account. Marcos Senesi and Como defender Jacabo Ramon are reportedly in the spotlight, both of whom are also attracting Real Madrid’s attention.

Senesi’s contract expires at the end of the season, and the south-coast club has not yet received any formal correspondence from Chelsea.

Prior to last summer’s transfer window, Chelsea had considered signing a centre-back for former Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, but Real Madrid’s main target Dean Huijsen made the move.

One of Maresca’s early frustrations, which ultimately resulted in his mid-season departure, was assessed, but Chelsea did not believe they could find a suitable alternative.

After Levi Colwill suffered a serious knee injury in the pre-season, the team felt the need to sign a ball-playing center-back. However, his recovery is progressing well and he has faith that he will play in the offseason. He continues to be a key component of Chelsea’s long-term goals.
