Oliver Glasner - Welcome To Nottingham Forest
Any news on his backroom staff? I assume they all left Palace at the same time if they all had the same contract lengths?

Does anyone know what his signings have been like? Has he had a decent hit record in terms of success?

Seems like quite a few clubs are active so hopefully he’s been preparing well in advance.

Palace had Dougie Freedman until last year, so recruitment is 90% done by them, and the manager then gives the green light.

Major Palace signings since Glasner were appointed are:

- Kamada (Free)
- Sarr (£12.5m)
- Lacroix (£18m)
- Nketiah (£25m)
- Esse (£12m)
- Pino (£26m)
- Canvot (£17.5m)
- Johnson (£35m)
- Strand Larsen (£43m)

Some hits there but definitely a few misses too.

Lets hope Nketiah wasnt his idea and we dont sign him. I think both Johnson and Strand Larsen arrived after he announced he was leaving so I doubt he had much input in them. Stand Larsen is a modern day Bob Rosario.

Are we adopting a similar approach or will OG be given more control?

No point having a recruitment team if you just let the coach write a list of players down and sign them !

No coach had Murillo & Anderson  on their list ! 

He will have a say, but it will be about getting the players that he needs to meet his requirements, and then him giving his choice from the available options.

Club confirmed appointment of Glasner's coaching team.

Not many spanish/portuguese speakers amongst that lot. I always thought that was an advantage that Pereira and Nuno had with our squad.

luckily they've all had 10-12mths or so to pick up some English and who's to say the backroom don't speak spanish/portugeuse - a lot of europeans speak multiple languages.  Get what you mean tho - we've done well with NES / VP.  Get the impression Glasner isn't a "vibes man" but then again, Palace players all got on well him.

Is Glasner a "working from home" Manager?
