Pierre Sage Facing Imminent Sacking at Crystal Palace Following Liverpool Defeat

A 3-1 defeat to Liverpool has left Crystal Palace manager Pierre Sage in a precarious position. According to Sky Sports, dismissing the French coach—who has guided the Eagles to an alarming bottom place in the Premier League standings—is now only a matter of time. 

The club's hierarchy has already drawn up a shortlist of potential successors. Initially, 53-year-old Dane Thomas Frank emerged as the leading candidate. Alongside the former Brentford and Tottenham manager, other diverse options under consideration include Frank Lampard, Sean Dyche, Vitor Pereira, Kim Hellberg, Vitor Matos, and Tony Popovic.
