Im a Palace fan. By all accounts the players and staff all loved Vieira. We played some great stuff last season but its not been the same this season. Not all his fault though.
We played the first half of the season with one midfielder and had two horrific run of games against top teams only, but a few bad results against Everton and Forest was a sign.
Ultimately though, he was sacked because the players hated Osian Roberts (his no2) and told the chairman that Krystian Wilson (head coach) was out of his depth and not good enough. Instead of changing them, he sacked Shaun Derry and the writing was on the wall. Since Roy has comeback, at least 5 players have improved immeasurably.
Hooe that helps.
