Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner lashed out at the club’s hierarchy following defeat to Sunderland on Saturday, accusing them of abandoning the team. Yeremy Pino put the Eagles ahead after half an hour at the Stadium of Light, but the hosts hit immediately with an equaliser from Enzo La Fee. Brian Brobbey struck with 20 minutes left on the clock to hand victory to the Black Cats.Glasner, who this week revealed that he will be leaving Selhurst Park at the end of the season, was brutally honest in his post-match comments about the situation at the club.The Austrian coach complained about the decision to agree to sell Marc Guehi to Manchester City the day before the game and a lack of options off the bench.Crystal Palace ‘abandoned completely’ as Glasner hits out at hierarchy“I’ve seen a team that is leaving their heart on the pitch,” Glasner told BBC Match of the Day. “As you have seen we couldn’t make a sub, we had no one on the bench. I feel we are being abandoned completely. Because I can’t play many players. They did everything they could and this has been going on for weeks and months now. And we have 12, 13 players from the squad available and we feel no support.“The worst thing is selling our captain one day before playing a Premier League game. We are preparing, it’s the first week we are training since September, and then we are selling our captain one day before a game. So I have no understanding of this. I have always kept my mouth shut, but I can’t because I have to defend these players, because it was the 35th game today.“Yes we get under pressure here and we are unlucky. But again, you can’t react, we can’t help them, it makes it really tough tonight.”Read – Three Crystal Palace players Oliver Glasner could potentially take to Man Utd (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});Asked who specifically has abandoned Crystal Palace, he replied: “It’s pretty clear, yeah? It’s pretty clear. Again, I didn’t sell anyone. If you get your heart torn out twice this season, one day before a game, it was with (Eberechi) Eze in summer, it was with Guehi now, you know? What should I tell the players all the time? What should I tell them?“And then I see the performance today for 50, 60 minutes, today it was not easy with all the circumstances going here with 12 players from the squad, and yes then you have 15, 20 minutes when you are under pressure, you concede the goal, I look at the bench, I can’t react, just kids on the bench, and this has not happened yesterday, this is weeks ago. That’s why I’m really frustrated today.”Asked if he had told the board about his frustrations, Glasner responded: “Of course they know it, we’re talking all the time. But again, talk does not win the game.”The 51-year-old has been linked with the Manchester United job after Ruben Amorim was sacked earlier this month.Read More – Michael Carrick message inspires Man Utd to victory over Man CitySee Also – 10 defining moments in the Manchester Derby rivalryFollow The Football Faithful on Social Media:Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube | TikTokThe post Crystal Palace ‘abandoned completely’ as Glasner hits out at hierarchy first appeared on The Football Faithful.
