Addressing the media post-match, Glasner confessed his initial disbelief at the team’s high finishing position but expressed his gratitude to everyone at Selhurst Park who contributed to this achievement.

When questioned if he had envisioned a tenth-place finish back in February, the former Eintracht Frankfurt manager responded, “No! I don’t know how many points we were away but I never focus on the table – never, not since the first day. I focused on the team on the players, we need to improve, we need to win games.”

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the players, the club, and everyone who supported and trusted us throughout this journey. Even during the six-game winless streak, we remained positive and continued to work hard. Now, we are reaping the rewards of our efforts.”

So nobody has told me any different. We’ve demonstrated our ambition, our playing style, and the journey we want to embark on together. They have the opportunity to showcase their strengths, personalities, and qualities with us. This is what we can offer. If anything else happens, it’s just part of the football landscape.”

When questioned about the potential need to offload players to maintain financial stability this summer, the Austrian manager responded succinctly and confidently, stating, “No.”As Gareth Southgate prepares to announce his provisional squad for the Euros on Tuesday, Crystal Palace supporters eagerly await to see if their standout players like Eberechi Eze and club captain Marc Guehi will be included.Expressing his desire for their selection, Glasner remarked, “I am very eager for them to be chosen. We wish all our players the best. While as a Palace manager, you hope for some players to have a break, I understand that for the players, participating in major tournaments is a significant ambition.”
