Glasner's dream of managing MU is shattered.

Manchester United's management is questioning Oliver Glasner's abilities due to Crystal Palace's recent poor run of form.

Glasner was once a strong candidate, but Palace's poor run of results has made Manchester United hesitant.

Glasner was one of the candidates strongly linked with the managerial position at Old Trafford, but the Austrian strategist's image has deteriorated significantly in the eyes of MU's leadership in recent weeks.

Crystal Palace are currently on a nine-match winless streak across all competitions. The culmination of this disappointment was a humiliating defeat in the third round of the FA Cup, where Palace were knocked out by semi-professional side Macclesfield.

Former Manchester United recruitment head Mick Brown revealed that the club's board began questioning Glasner's abilities due to a poor run of form at Crystal Palace.

Glasner was once highly regarded for his role in helping Palace improve and even win the FA Cup. However, after an impressive start to the season, Palace have declined with six winless matches in the Premier League, currently sitting 13th in the table.

Manchester United's leadership is concerned that if Glasner cannot maintain his success at Palace, a move to another big club would make things even more difficult for him. Notably, Glasner also favors the three-centre-back formation that was controversial under Amorim.

Manchester United's leadership, particularly Director of Football Jason Wilcox, believed that the club's current squad was only suited to a traditional four-defender formation. Wilcox even clashed with Amorim regarding the three-defender system.

An incredibly bizarre penalty save at the African Cup of Nations: In the early hours of January 15th, goalkeeper Yassine Bounou made an impressive save, helping Morocco win 4-2 against Nigeria in the penalty shootout of the 2026 African Cup of Nations semi-final.
