Glasner aiming for quick impact at Crystal Palace

Oliver Glasner is aiming for a quick impact at Crystal Palace.

The new Palace manager is aware of the short tenures at Palace of Frank de Boer and Patrick Vieira.

He said: “If I [was] afraid to be sacked in four games, I wouldn't have come to London.

“I could have stayed in Austria and gone skiing. I am convinced we can win many games this year in the Premier League.

“One of my biggest strengths and weaknesses is my impatience. So I hope it will be fast. Every manager has his ideas and the players have to deal with it. It is not that you click your fingers and the next day as that would be easy for us. It is daily work.

“Of my first eight games in [Eintracht] Frankfurt, there were five draws and three losses. Then the journey started. I hope we start better here.

“It's not possible to play that intensely tomorrow because the players are not used to playing like this and I don't demand it from them. Again, this will be step by step.

“But this is what I like, and I think it's what the fans like. The fans like to have this attacking [football]. We will try to implement this."
