“I’m loving this job” – Oliver Glasner speaks on Crystal Palace exit

Crystal Palace and Oliver Glasner: Full Commitment Until the Final Whistle

Oliver Glasner has made it clear that, despite announcing his upcoming departure, his focus at Crystal Palace remains unwavering. With his contract set to expire at the end of the current campaign, the Austrian coach has addressed concerns about motivation with a calm assurance that reflects his management style.

In January, Glasner confirmed his intention to step away from Selhurst Park once the season concludes. Yet, rather than creating uncertainty, the decision appears to have sharpened clarity within the squad. Results on the pitch suggest a side still fully aligned with their manager’s demands.

Commitment Driving Palace Momentum

Palace’s recent performances underline a team still pushing forward with purpose. Having already secured their first major trophy under Glasner by lifting the FA Cup in 2025, the club now finds itself chasing further success in Europe. Progress to the Conference League semi finals signals that belief remains intact.

Glasner addressed his mindset directly, stating: “For me it’s easy because I’m doing this job, because I’m loving this job and then it’s always 100 per cent.”

That sentiment captures the tone around the club. There is no sense of drift or distraction. Instead, there is a manager intent on ensuring standards do not slip, even as his tenure approaches its conclusion.

Standards Set by Leadership

Glasner’s comments offer insight into his personal philosophy. He continued: “As soon as I feel I can just give 99 per cent, I would leave and then maybe retire or whatever.”
