Also makes good players look average as well though Yeah I'd go along with that. Although to be fair 2014 was a tough group. Like is said I thought he was let down badly by his players against Iceland. No doubt he made mistakes but that was no excuse for the players putting in that performance

Although I do feel he was let down by his players against Iceland. He’s always done pretty well when expectations are pretty low, both at club level and international sides as well. It’s when he’s at a big club or England that he suddenly looks out of his depth.

Put him in charge of a team with ambitions to win stuff and he turns into a turtle. I thought Hicks and Gillet lacked ambition Another good performance from us to continue what's been a good season. Solid in defence, battling in midfield and took the opportunities we needed too. Very good time to be a Palace fan at the minute.

They had massive ambitions of milking everything they could from our club. They then sacked a manager who had a voice. Roy is a decent manager, nothing more in my opinion.

They were expecting us to be in the CL, but they also wanted a yes man who wouldn't be put pressure on the board to make expensive signings he wanted to build the team in his vision. Comparing him at Liverpool, Inter, and Blackburn (when they were the richest club in England) to... pretty much anywhere else he's ever been... it's 3 clubs where he's been a disappointment... and then the rest of his career is pretty much a success story. I don't know what it is, but his tactics really just tend to fit some clubs more than others. His time at Fulham he had them playing great football, but his tactics with us (and with England) were so far from that. There's probably smarter people who are better at football analysis that can explain why exactly his success has never translated over to bigger clubs. For me it's just an interesting observation.
