So you think him and John Stones, we don't know.
So him and Diaz will be the partnership at centre-back for between next month and the end of the season, probably, if there's no injuries, which is a very solid...
pair of centre-backs, and then for next season when Vardy is back, then there will be three or four for two positions.
I think he would be on the shortlist and he would surely be interested in a club like that.
Whether they would choose him, that's another matter and another debate.
He was out of contract, well, he's out of contract in June.
We knew that he had already rejected two offers from Crystal Palace to extend that contract, so it was pretty obvious he was not going to stay after this season.
He actually told Steve Parrish and the board at Palace,
back in October that he was never going to sign.
Now there's no point trying because it's made it official that he was going to leave.
I don't know exactly because I'm not too familiar with the Crystal Palace history from before the time I moved to England, but he has to be one of the greatest managers ever, really, when you think that he brought them the FA Cup.
They are very much amongst the favourites to win the Conference League and bring a European trophy to sell her spark as well.
So I think, as sad as it will be, I think for the club and fans to lose somebody who's had such a positive impact on the football club, I think they will look at him as one of the greatest memories that he brought to the football club.
And he really took this team and this club forwards.
Now, they can't really get wrong the next one after him because it won't be easy to follow Glasner.
But for him, I think he showed enough there to be amongst the contenders for bigger clubs' jobs.
