The Voice of Reason In An Otherwise Mediocre World

"Crystal Palace have offered Frank de Boer the manager’s job at Selhurst Park. Argentine Mauricio Pellegrino had also been linked with the Eagles position, but Palace officials believe he is heading to Southampton to replace Claude Puel, having impressed the St Mary's hierarchy during his interview." This alarms me. It implies that the only reason that we've offered it to FDB is that Pellegrino has decided that he prefers Southampton which puts us firmly in our place. De Boer may (or may not) turn out to be the better appointment but I thought we were on the cusp of being able to attract the people we want, rather than having to settle for other mid-table clubs' leftovers. Crystal Palace - dull it's not!

Since when has De Boer been a PL mid table leftover? He's won the Dutch league title 5 times. He will be an excellent appointment and is far closer in culture to the PL than Peligrino.

Or Pellegrino didn't impress at Palace interview and has rushed down to Southampton to see if they will offer him a job. Meanwhile we have offered our first choice de Boer the job. You can see it both ways, but for Fs sake be positive.

From BBC: It is understood he was the first choice of Palace chairman Steve Parish and informed the south London side they were his preferred option. Who knows whats true with all the Southampton and Pellegrino stuff? De Boer may have been our first choice all along. He's got to have something about him to have got the jobs he's had in the past. I'll be happy with him.

We look like we might appoint a huge name in the game who has managed some top clubs and people still moan. Plus I got 25/1 on him.

One challenge for FDB will be to prove that he can outperform Pellegrino in the management stakes re: team performances.

to be honest, i don't think that if true its not too bad an appointment, having said that at some stage of his stay he will either be sacked or jack it in, that is what happens, hopefully he will be a success, which is what we all want at the end of the day, but we have to go with who is appointed and hope for the best, although we are supposedly an established premier club, that can all fall apart, apart from the top six all the rest are happy to get to the 40 points mark then go from there, that will not change for us or the majority of the division, sit back and enjoy it if poss because there is sod all we can do about it
