Crystal Palace chiefs are still behind manager Oliver Glasner despite the club's poor start, sources have told Football Insider.

Palace lost 2-0 at home against Fulham on Saturday (9 November) and remain in the bottom three of the Premier League.

The Eagles have won just once in the top flight this term - a 1-0 victory against Tottenham in October.

Glasner's side have scored just eight league goals in the 2024-25 season so far, with only bottom club Southampton netting less.

Nevertheless, Palace chiefs are believed to be ready to give him more time to turn things around after his impressive stint in the second half of last season.

Sources say injuries to the likes of Eberechi Eze and Eddie Nketiah have also been taken into consideration in the boardroom at Selhurst Park.

Glasner succeeded Roy Hodgson at Palace in February and won seven of his 13 matches in charge in the 2023-24 campaign.

Star man Michael Olise has since departed for Bayern Munich, who reportedly approached the 50-year-old boss in the summer, in what has proved to be a big blow for the Eagles.

The Austrian, who won the Europa League with Eintracht Frankfurt in 2022, is under contract at Selhurst Park until June 2026.
