You cannot line up a manager for the future. That isn’t how it works. All you can do is watch the performance of managers and do your homework on them, a bit like scouting players. That is why I think when we’ve found a better manager we can hire then we should, and not wait for when Roy decides he’s finished or he suddenly becomes unwell and we’re scrambling around, which if he’s unwell, could be be mid season and very disruptive. I also agree that Roy doesn’t improve or progress players. He might do for his own way of not playing football, but he doesn’t, apart from AWB, who was naturally the best tackler and stopper at RB in England, but didn’t develop going forward. Which of our players have developed or have been courted by other clubs? None? I won’t be surprised if Eze wants to get the bell out of here asap. Luckily Roy is the age he is, or Roy could be here longer to slowly erode the intangible things people don’t notice until it’s too late. LoftusCheek, came to Palace, a talented fringe player at Chelsea.

Good post but it won't make any difference to the Roy Out mob I'm afraid!

After 3 seasons of not showing up against Brighton and helping them survive with 6 easy points? Yep.

By " line up " I mean identify targets, talk to them and if a deal is there to be done then decide on the incumbent. Recent example is Darren Moore Originally posted by Rudi Hedman

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

It's 9 starts and 3 goals. 2 goals and 3 assists in the last two. RB Leipzig are second in the league. There's not much you can read into is. Some people, including me, think with a run in a team at a higher level he could get going. That could take more time than we could afford to give him though. Physically, he seemed to have all the attributes of a great athlete, technically and tactically he needed to improve. I think we was worth a punt at £10m and it was a shame it didn't work out. What I would say is another cross into Benteke resulted in a goal. Roy or no Roy, only Giroud had more goals from headers. Surely some analysts somewhere had to tell the management what to do if we want him to score goals.

Anyone notice how Chris Coleman was nice about Palace and constructive. Auditioning ? Or just keeping his options open.

We have defenders who are ageing and can be caught on there heels from time to time. Midfielders who aren’t quick enough and don’t create enough for the attackers. I don’t think Hodgson can do much about this, the blame is starting to lay at the hands of the owners, we need more investment. Roy can’t turn average players into world beaters that can compete at the top, top level. Even if Pep came to us nothing would change that dramatically without some funds.
