‘He knows why’ – Glasner claims Crystal Palace player is training alone

Crystal Palace finally got their first point on the board this season with a 1-1 draw against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Nicolas Jackson scored for the Blues but Ebrechi Eze equalised in the second half to give Oliver Glasner his first point of the season.

After the departure of Michael Olise to Bayern Munich, the Eagles attack will take some time to get used to the new setup.

Players like Eddie Nketiah have arrived along with Ismaila Sarr to help the Eagles in their attack this season.

One player, however, is away from first team football and manager Glasner has revealed that he is training alone.

Defender Rob Holding was not a part of the squad that faced Chelsea at the weekend and Glasner confirmed his decision to drop the player.

He mentioned that the player is training alone and only the two of them know the reason behind it.

“Rob [Holding] is training individually at the moment,” he revealed after the match against Chelsea, as quoted by We Are Palace.

“We will talk together.

“He knows the reason, but it is something that stays between Rob and me. Nothing public.”

The former Arsenal defender has made just one appearance for the Eagles after his move from the Gunners.

The centre-back has faced fitness issues at Selhurst Park and with new centre-back signings joining the club this summer, Holding will find it difficult to make his place in the starting line up.
