The original post said that we "should be able to compete" with Huddersfield. We should all agree with that. The main problem is that this is a banana skin of an opening fixture, it is one we need to win. This reminds me of the start of last season when the Benteke saga was going on. West Brom at home first game should have been a decent fixture to set us on our way and we know how that turned out. No need to panic just yet, but it would be nice to start as we mean to go on. Seems to be the Palace way to have obstacles in the way though - such as no manager yet to prepare for our challenge ahead.

How many times-we get in the right manager FOR THE PLAYERS WE ALREADY HAVE-THIS IS WHY MAKING THE RIGHT DECISION IS SO IMPORTANT. We need possibly 4/5 additions to the SQUAD, even with the team that beat Hull and Sammy Lee in charge we will be able to compete with HUDDERSFIELD on the opening day, plus the 3/4 easyish fixtures that proceed. Some of you are saying you wish we had Brightons scouting network? Based on f***ing what? We've been in the premier league for 4 years under the stewardship of what we have, Brighton have not. I swear 90% of you are on here are off your heads.

I hope that whoever is appointed has good contacts in the transfer market because our scouting 'network', even compared to Brighton's, sounds a bit...well...err...crap frankly: Might also be inferior reporting of our set up. Reporter writes the one thing he knows and pads it out. Not to say that we haven't made some dire purchases which do show there's a lot to be done.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

This has been mentioned a few times already but it would be interesting to know if the two actually like and respect each other as if they don't it could create all sorts of problems.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'New Manager Thoughts' by kenbarr Originally posted by sa_eagle
The other main thread is now pointless! I would be happy with either Pellegrino or De Boer but would prefer Pellegrino. As for Dyche, I just can't believe how low we would be aiming with him. On the other thread I've mentioned Puel a few times and would still welcome him. However some jumped on me as they railled about his poor run-in in Southampton's last 8 games. Fair enough, but he still took them to 8th as the 'best of the rest' and did so under immmense pressure knowing that the board were about to "review" his position. Dyche's achievement at Burnley comes nowhere close to Puel's first season in the Prem! Firstly this will probably be in the main thread next time you look and secondly Puel may have taken Southampton to 8th place but their 46 points was only six points more than Dyche's Burnley yet Southampton had a vastly greater player budget to work with. It would have been interesting to see where Southampton and Burnley would have ended up if each had the opposing manager in charge last year

Apparently we're possibly going to talk to Dyche this week - for the first time. So what have Parish and co actually been doing in the past 4 weeks since Sam resigned?

I think that this is the same story being circulated and, has been pointed out, we don't know if it's actually true. Personally I'd be disappointed if we'd interviewed him at any time; he's not progress.

Disappointing yes and not progress given my understanding is that the club interviewed him a few years ago before he went to Burnley and deemed he wasn't what palace were looking for. Surely going back on that decision now wouldn't look good it'd be a bit like meeting up with your ex girlfriend and trying to decide whether you should make another go of it! Personally I would rather the club take a gamble on someone like Ryan giggs than go for Dyche and I don't even like giggs and never thought I'd find myself suggesting we should go for him but he would be preferable to dyche! Total lack of experience in the PL and we in our position cannot afford such a "Gamble". He was turned down for the Swansea job because of his inexperience and I think that Southampton have also formed the same opinion.
