Why does he want to manage that tire fire?
This is late but I wouldn't exactly call Palace a tire fire... they've been up for a while, they have very wealthy owners, their catchment area in south London is massive and they have a solid roster to build on with some good pieces like Zaha, Benteke and Dann. If they can ever get the Selhurst Park redevelopment done and get that stadium up to 35k or so I think they could be a permanent PL club. Granted they are not in the nicest neighborhood and Selhurst is run down but when you look at some of the tiny cities in the Premier League these days I think a club like that that's been up for a few years now based and is based in London is well positioned.
