"Led to believe"? If he'd watched a few games he'd have seen exactly how good they are and are not. Did we say to him, "Look, I know Puncheon goes round and round in circles and passes backwards all the time and puts all his set pieces into row W, but he's actually Neymar in disguise"?

If he's misunderstood the capabilities of our players then that's his fault. No, I think the problem is that he thought *he* was better than he was and instead of changing things safely and progressively he could be Billy Big Bollocks and transform us into Barcelona overnight. Pardew might have been a decent manager if he'd realised that that wasn't working and gone back to what would work; let us hope de Boer takes on board the bollocking he received today.

that made me actually laugh out loud. thank you.

Saved me typing. 'Led to believe' is the most stupid thing said in 24 hours. He's a football manager. He assesses players, formations, opposition etc. You know where this is going.

We have had our differences on here but this doesn't prevent me from congratulating you on this highly amusing comment.Raucous laughs from Willo !

Hope this is so ... FDB has a lot to learn about the premier league, but he also has a lot to give. He can only learn through experiance...yes he may have to change his style, although you could argue that he sticks to his principals... he strikes me as an intelligent person and proberly finds the hostility towards himself at such an early stage difficult to understand, particularly those from the fans of the club he is Managing. I saw the pre-season game against Shalka and I thought we looked quite good. Agree the two homes games were very poor, but Liverpool away, we were unlucky to come away without a point.
Some of our fan's are really despicable, wise up, your doing the job of the newspapers ... they want a head, and your doing it for them! Steve Parish is, in my view the best Chairman that Palace have ever had, indeed I would put him in the top 5 in the Premier League. I don't for a moment think that he is out of his depth regarding his Football knowledge. Whatever Football work he does his does for Palace. He gets my vote everytime. Trust in Steve Parrish. He's trying to change the Palace way for the better ... let's just get behind him, the Manager and team to help.

Ah at last, a really sensible post on this issue I totally agree PP.

That seems to be FdB's situation sorted at least for the time being. Now SP and his team can concentrate on the last 3 days of the transfer window and fill some of those important gaps.

It would be fantastic if we could follow the turmoil of the last 3 weeks by signing Sakho + a decent goalkeeper + a back-up striker, get 4 or 6 points against Burnley & Southampton and beat Huddersfield in the League Cup (or whatever it's called now).

Here's hoping!

Thanks for summarising what I believe are the hopes of most Palace fans!

Sakho deal would certainly inspire a lot!

COYP!!!!

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Disagree.

It could be getting to the stage where he's understanding that some of our players are not as good as he was led to believe.

Like I've also said elsewhere, he'll walk before he's sacked.

You really think so? Close to six million reasons that he won't do that!

 


Jackson.. Wan Bissaka.... Sansom.. Nicholas.. Cannon.. Guehi.... Zaha... Thomas.. Byrne... Holton.. Rogers.. that should do it..

It would be a surprise to me if he was signed for reasons which I won't go into.

A Sakho who hasn't played at all this season and whose last appearance before injury was back in April.So you expect Sakho to come straight in to the side to cure all our ills ?

I'm more interested in what Sammy Lee thinks about this on going saga.Is he complicit in this fiasco or simply just a yes man? All this conjecture really gets us nowhere.

As I just posted in another FDB thread!

If this is true - and I suspect that it is - then he has been told to forget his ideals and to manage the players we have and use them to the best of their ability.
Never a good thing for the Board to tell the Manager what to do but my guess is that it was our way or the highway.
It does not bode well for a long term future and shows that the Board do not have a clue sometimes.
It also once again leaves us up in the air with little stability - again!!
Sorry - but employing De Boer (who I thought was a good and exciting Appointment I must add) given his playing style desires and given the failure of Pardew to change things reeks of poor decision making on the footballing side.
Is it SP or has Mark Bright got a lot to do with it?
If they wanted De Boer and were accepting what he wanted to do then they needed to give or get him more in the transfer market.
If Sakho is £30m then just buy him - if he stays fit he is cheap compared to some deals going on right now - Johnny Evans - £27m - really?
Back the Manager with the players he needs or don't employ him in the first place.

What a good post. Let's get behind the club, the team and lets even give the manager another few weeks!
