Should Crystal Palace have to accept their place in football's food chain?

Just eight months ago Crystal Palace and their manager Oliver Glasner were lifting the FA Cup. Fast forward to now - no wins in 10 games, captain Marc Guehi sold to City, knocked out of the FA Cup by 6th tier Macclesfield. And then Glasner, who’d already admitted he’s leaving at the end of the season, tells the media he feels "abandoned completely" by the club.

As we record this he’s not been sacked, but does Glasner’s anger over player sales ignore the reality of Crystal Palace’s place in food chain? Is it cynical to suggest Glasner was trying to get sacked? And why are so many managers throwing their toys out the pram this season?

Former Crystal Palace player Clinton Morrison and Dan Cook from the HLTCO Fan Channel, join Gabby and Mark.

Plus, we discuss the chaos of the AFCON Final, Manchester United winning the derby and a shock British win at the Australian Open.
