Oliver Glasner is having a nightmare 2024/25 season so far with zero Premier League wins after seven games.

These struggles for the Eagles have dragged Oliver Glasner down into a relegation battle with his Crystal Palace side that in all honesty is too talented to be that far down the table.

Sitting 18th place after almost the quarter of a season played is a concerning situation which has relegation being discussed.

Crystal Palace have been predicted by Opta to escape relegation, this is a positive and does make plenty of sense as if Glasner can make a few adjustments.

Relegation is not something Danny Murphy is concerned about for the Eagles though, as he has claimed that Eberechi Eze will make all the difference.

How the Eagles dressing room feels about Oliver Glasner

Glasner’s Eagles have struggled this season with goalscoring being the biggest problem. Crystal Palace have struggled to create chances, instead being forced into shooting from range more often than not.

Amid this horrendous form, now it has been reported exactly what the dressing room is thinking about Glasner and his role as Eagles manager.

As long as these struggles continue, Glasner will face more and more scrutiny but now it is reported that his players are still in full support.

According to Give Me Sport, despite the struggles Crystal Palace have faced this season, Glasner still retains the backing of his squad.

The player remaining on board, combined with Glasner’s intent should be enough for the Eagles to soon start picking up points and rising up the table.

Crystal Palace insiders have described Glasner as being “very sure about his methods” which he has full faith will eventually turn this season around.

Crystal Palace could lose several star players in 2025

Despite the report of all being well at Selhurst Park, there are several current Eagles stars who are potentially set to exit the club in 2025.

Marc Guehi is one, with reports suggesting Crystal Palace are expecting his departure in the next two transfer windows. An exit next year will see the Eagles receive less than the £70m offered in the summer although Newcastle are not expecting to be handed a cut-price move in January.

Another name tipped for a possible exit is Jean-Philippe Mateta with the Frenchman expected to be the next big exit from Copers Cope after a falling out with Glasner.

Jefferson Lerma has been linked with making the move to Galatasaray, following Wilfried Zaha’s move from two years ago.

Finally, there will also be concern over Adam Wharton and potential interest from Manchester City arriving after Rodri’s injury.

Losing all of these players along with Glasner could be catastrophic for the Eagles.
