Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is feeling the pressure as his team struggles to replicate the success of their incredible run at the end of last season. The Eagles won six out of their last seven games, defeating top teams like Liverpool, Manchester United, and Aston Villa to secure a top-10 finish in the Premier League. However, this season has been a different story, with Palace failing to secure a win in their first eight matches and only managing to accumulate three points.

Glasner is quick to point out that it is unfair to constantly compare the team to their exceptional performance in the final games of the previous season. He highlights that Crystal Palace has never been known for being a high-scoring team in the Premier League and that their recent success was truly extraordinary. The manager emphasizes that the team should not be judged solely based on their current goal-scoring record, especially when considering the context of past seasons.

While fans may be disappointed with the team’s current form, Glasner remains optimistic and points out that there are still opportunities for the team to improve and find their rhythm. He acknowledges that confidence plays a significant role in a player’s performance and believes that regaining that confidence will be crucial for Crystal Palace to turn their season around.

Looking ahead, Glasner is focused on the bigger picture and is determined to help his team bounce back from their slow start. He emphasizes the importance of efficiency in front of goal and highlights individual players like Eberechi Eze and JP Mateta as examples of what the team is capable of when they are in form.

As Crystal Palace continues to work towards finding their winning formula, Glasner urges fans and critics alike to have patience and trust in the process. While the team may be below expectations at the moment, the manager is confident that they are not far off from returning to their best form. With hard work and perseverance, Glasner believes that Crystal Palace will soon be back on track and competing at the level that fans expect and deserve.
