Under Roy Hodgson, this team had a tonne of unrealized potential. However, under Glasner, that potential has been easily unlocked, as Palace has already put five goals past West Ham United, Aston Villa and Manchester United at Selhurst Park this month.
According to the Ornstein article from Thursday morning, Freedman has emerged as a front-runner for the Newcastle position with Ashworth expected to leave, and the club and he have held discussions, with the Magpies hoping for their own massive transfer window.
However, following a successful few months in south London, Freedman has made the choice to remain, putting an end to rumours about his future. Newcastle was notified of his decision on Thursday morning, leaving the Magpies in the dark.

Even though Ashworth hasn’t left for Manchester United, his transfer saga continues. Most recently, he used his Newcastle email to communicate with Omar Berrada, the incoming CEO of the Red Devils, about possible new deals at Old Trafford before a move was even made. This has opened up a legal can of worms. The sporting director, however, now supposedly asserts that Eddie Howe attempted to eject him from the team.
Maybe this is what’s persuaded Freedman to remain at Palace. He played with the Eagles for more than 300 games before leading them to victory as manager in 2011–12, which included a historic victory over United at Old Trafford. His dedication to the cause could further solidify his legend status.
It could be better for Freedman to stay at Crystal Palace.
Over the last six months, the Eagles have had a swift ascent.
With players like Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, Jean-Philippe Mateta, and Adam Wharton shining under Glasner’s tutelage, Palace was the best team in the Premier League towards the end of the season. In just a few months, Palace went from being ranked 15th to 10th. In the interim, supporters will be hoping that the good times can continue at Selhurst Park.

The moment is wonderful to be a Palace supporter. It is anticipated that one of their more valuable stars—Eze, Olise, or Marc Guehi in particular—will depart in the summer, but that will only allow Palace greater leeway to strategically use the incoming money to bolster their roster. Even in that case, keeping the players they currently have could be extremely important in the long run.
