Keith Millen says he's happy over his role at Crystal Palace.
Millen acts as an assistant to Palace manager Tony Pulis.
"I always said the job wasn't right for me permanently at the time and it panned out that way," Millen told the Croydon Advertiser.
"Tony's experience of the Premier League, the whole club needed, not just the playing side of it.
"The whole club needed to get a Premier League mentality. It's all right talking about it but if you haven't been there and done it, it's very difficult to justify what you're saying.
"Tony was the perfect appointment. The way the players responded was perfect for him and his experience of running a Premier League club is why we have gone from strength to strength.
"I am in no rush to leave Palace. This a dream job for me working here. I am not going to walk away from that."
