Would get my vote but (1) can't see our board signing off the cost & (2) they'd have to be up for staying if we go down & not sure I can see that either. | | |  |

If he failed at Palace because they had the wrong players why does anyone think he will do better with ours? | |

Be great, even if just because it’d mean bye bye Jenkins | |

Laudrup back with Leon assistant and Curtis back in the coaching would be amazing, but we'll have to pay to get Laudrup back. | |

The quality of football he produced at Ajax was heavily criticised in much the same way Clement's style was at Derby: slow, boring, overly cautious etc. | | | |

I thought his Ajax team were heralded as a return tot he total football Ajax of the 70's & they were also compared to the mid 90's side?! | |

'The Dutchman's footballing philosophy centres on dominating the ball in the manner of his former clubs Ajax and Barcelona. In his final Eredivisie title-winning season in charge, Ajax averaged 60 per cent possession.
"Frank has always stood for his football to be attractive," said his twin brother Ronald recently. "He likes teams to be pressing high up and make sure that the ball most of the time stays on the ground, to hopefully have the ball quickly in the possession to try to score."
De Boer prefers to use a 4-3-3 formation in order to fulfil his high-pressing, short-passing tactics, and the off-the-ball work demands a strong team ethic. In that sense, he will take encouragement from the togetherness Palace demonstrated while achieving survival last season. For De Boer, the team is more important than any individual.
De Boer won plenty of admirers for the manner in which his youthful Ajax side won four consecutive Eredivisie titles between 2011 and 2014, but there was also criticism towards the end of his reign. De Boer's side continued to dominate possession, but their build-up play was often slow and unimaginative.
It was more reminiscent of Louis van Gaal than Johan Cruyff, and it led to criticism from his former assistant Dennis Bergkamp after he was sacked by Inter last year. "At times, it seems like he would play a positional game just because he liked positioning, as if the whole aim was to obtain the highest possible percentage of possession," Bergkamp told Santos magazine.
"I don't care much for that kind of football, it's football without any sense. You need to seek adventure. You need to have the courage to play football, the courage to take risks and not refuge yourself in a waiting kind of football." | | | |

I think reading that a De Boer / Bergkamp combo is out of the question | | | |

How many of those would get into the Crystal Palace side? | |

Reading that I think I'd prefer a punt on Bergkamp than De Boer. | |

Well if it`s De Boer it may be a little late to install his style of play to keep us up hopefully he can pull it off, he`s going to have something to prove meaning he`ll be up for it big time, if we do then go down and at least we`ll be ready to give the championship a real go playing the style of football we all enjoyed. | | | |

Didn't we say that last time?
Everything the club does is short term and doesn't address the key issues. Changing the manager won't change anything without major restructuring upstairs. | | | |

What 4 games do me a favour give him a chance is it... | | | |
| Frank de Boer on 22:12 - Dec 21 with 3358 views | jackjackjackjack |
He lasted 85 days at Inter, and 77 at Crystal Palace, so you'd think there would some reasons why they chose to get rid of him pretty soonish, and not give him more time... | |

Not convinced by this guy whatsoever. And for what it's worth although everybody assumes he plays beautiful stuff, it's not really the case.
If you last less than 3 months multiple times it means you have failed to get control of the dressing room.
There is nothing about his experience that shows he is the right person for this. He is an egoist who simply wants to be in the premier league. Do not confuse a famous name with a good manager. | | | |
| Frank de Boer on 22:35 - Dec 21 with 3229 views | Jango |
The very last thing we need is a manager who’s coming off the back of 2 disastrous spells at other clubs. Palace didn’t even score a goal while he was In charge ffs and some on here think he’s gonna bring fast flowing attacking football. | | | |
