Sympathy for Hodgson: BBC Sport Pundit Reflects on Palace’s Managerial Shift

BBC Sport pundit Michael Brown who previously asserted that Crystal Palace under Roy Hodgson would avoid relegation maintains his belief despite the recent managerial change. Brown expresses sympathy for Hodgson’s departure citing a health scare as a challenging circumstance.

He believes Hodgson deserved a better send-off with Palace fans. Brown acknowledges the appointment of Oliver Glasner as an interesting move aimed at injecting excitement and a change in playing style. However, he highlights the difficulty in implementing a new style without key players like Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze.

Glasner faces crucial fixtures against Burnley and Luton and must secure positive results quickly. Brown emphasizes the importance of staying clear of the relegation battle and notes that the managerial change would have been more ideally timed in the summer.
