Part of the reason he was sacked from Palace is because he refused to change from 3-4-3 even though the players hated it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inter was a basket-case and Crystal Palace are one of those English clubs that literally cannot afford the time or patience to change their philosophy - they're a Pulis club, full of limited players and satisfied just with staying in the league every year getting that sweet TV money. He did very well at Ajax and has the pedigree to do well here, presuming he has the money to do so. Unlike his last two clubs, he will also be dealing with a calibre of player that is better than most of the league he's managing in. He also knows Rangers and will presumably bring in Ronald as well. I'm struggling to think of how we could do better, to be honest, but maybe that's more an indictment of where we are. We're a basket case of a club as well though ForeverAndEver 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Robot 21,148 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 They won’t make a decision on Murty until the STs are in. If it was Murty and I had the choice to renew or not, I would be edging towards paying game by game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cos that’s worked so well. Pedro was a nutter and obviously took no shit and dropped players. He lost the dressing room players have too much power now for that to work. You need someone who commands respect but is excelllent at man management. Murty I believe has the man management skills but doesn’t command respect because he’s achieved nothing.
