VillaChris Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I think it's a harsh decision. Poor run but not like they've even been losing that many games in it. They had some lax transfer windows and surprise surprise you don't strengthen in key areas and look worse although they haven't had drop in league position West Ham and Wolves had had. They'll stay up comfortably so getting Hodgson or Big Sam back makes no sense whatsoever to me. Jesse Marsch linked, that's probably a decent job for him to go back into. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Bit of a trend developing with ex-pros and management, especially the crop from the early 2000s that are now stepping into top jobs without much dress rehearsal. A big ego and a 'name' may have worked 20 years ago, but like Roy Keane, I think these blokes go into clubs, expecting everyone to be able to emulate what they did and have no idea how to actually 'coach' and 'train' players to become better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Timing that new manager bounce for after the Arsenal game where they have winnable fixtures. First Google news article was Gerrard was favourite lol, defo going down if that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair. He started in the Man City youth system, got a job in the MLS and Nice. But naturally hit his ceiling. I don’t think he’s on par of doing a Gerrard and taking the easy route with the Scottish league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakemineVanilla Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 They looked a pretty solid unit last season and I think they have missed Conor Gallagher massively. It just shows how vulnerable clubs are who rely on loaned players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth looking back to this time last year......didn't Brighton lose six straight games. Yet not question at all of sacking Potter. They picked up again in last 5-6, started this season very well and now have kicked on under another manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 To be honest after Hodgson left we were all saying that preseason they looked in big trouble as only had like 15 players. They've done very well to stay comfortably in the league since. Missing gallagher though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it's not the results - as you say, quite a few draws and they've been playing tough teams - but no shot on target in 4 games tells the story of dire football to watch. Them at home was the easiest game we'll have all season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same for most managers. 2-3 years tops at most clubs before you get sacked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Can't but help feel Palace mroe likely go down now than if they'd have kept Viera, they probably will still survive but with Viera seemed almost guaranteed, only reason they've been on such a bad run is because they've just played all the division's better and most in form teams, previous to that against the bottom half teams they've been very good and still have to play every team below them in the league plus Fulham, so I think would have stayed up comfortably, didn't need to sack Viera to bring in a firefight like Hodgson, unless there was something else going on behind the scenes with Viera and Hodgson just a stop gap until the nd of the season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
