Glasner outlines Palace ambition vs Liverpool Speaking via CPFC. co. uk ahead of the clash, the 51-year-old didn’t hide his ambition.

Glasner said: “And now we have the opportunity to win four times against Liverpool in one season. I think that’s something unique. First of all, you don’t play a team like Liverpool four times a year very often.

“And on the other side, then having already three wins, that’s massive for us, and that’s why we’re really highly motivated, because maybe this will never happen again, and it’s a massive chance. ” That alone tells us everything about the mindset heading into this one, because for Palace this isn’t just another fixture, it’s an opportunity to make a statement against the reigning Premier League champions. The Eagles boss also made it clear that their approach won’t change despite the occasion.

“If we don’t go to Liverpool and have the ambition to win there, I would say… we could stay in London… because it makes no sense going to Liverpool… and saying ‘if we lose, it’s fine’. ” Liverpool must respond at Anfield That makes this match even bigger, because we simply can’t allow that narrative to continue, especially at Anfield where our standards have to be set. Glasner did acknowledge the scale of the challenge his team faces, praising the atmosphere and quality within Arne Slot’s squad, but that hasn’t dented Palace’s belief.
