Guehi began and captained Palace to a 1-0 victory within the first leg of their Convention League tie towards Fredrikstad on Thursday evening, however the registration deadline has since handed, that means no new signings can function within the second leg subsequent week.
Glasner joked he’s contemplating filling in at centre-back if Guehi had been to depart earlier than then amid his issues over the shortage of depth in his squad.

“At the moment, we had 17 on-field gamers out there. One from the academy, two gamers we already advised that they need to depart the membership. So meaning we’re with 14 and having six video games from the tenth of August till the thirty first.
“This group, I do know we are able to depend on them. I belief them fully. However it’s actually not one of the simplest ways it’s best to begin into the season. With the outcomes, third sport, no defeat, that is all good. However I feel we’re beneath the sting.
“I just know if Marc leaves and is not available for Frederikstad, we will have big troubles. That’s pretty clear. We can’t register anyone. So from my side, he has to stay.
“We performed with Jeff Lerma within the again right this moment. He is a midfield participant. Now we have no centre-back out there in the mean time. If Marc leaves, I’ll strive my boots as a result of I used to be a centre-back, and this might be a great possibility. I’ll give it some thought.”
But in contrast, Parish said: “If Marc needs to signal a contract, then he can keep!
“It is a difficult situation. If you are in Europe, the financial rules are a lot tighter than in the Premier League.
“Gamers leaving on a free just isn’t superb. We should take a look at it over the following 11 days.”
‘Not replacing Eze sooner is our fault’

“We have to add not numbers. It is easy so as to add 10 numbers. We’d like the appropriate gamers. The profile is outlined for months. It isn’t shocking for everybody that Ebs left. Truthfully, it is not shocking.
“Five days earlier, we couldn’t have done anything if he leaves. We knew that the chance was very high that this would happen. Honestly, and I say it like it is, we missed replacing him early enough. That’s completely our fault and nobody else’s fault.”
‘We’ll look to get the standard we are able to’
On Eze’s departure, Parish added: “We have to move past it. He has been fantastic for us and we are pleased he will go on to fulfill his ambitions.
“Now we have to seek out different gamers to help the staff and Oliver Glasner. We’ll herald gamers, it’s about discovering the appropriate gamers.
“I don’t think Oliver wants too many, I think it is the right number. It is about getting the balance right, we are a bit thin anyway. We are working on what we are working on and will look to get the quality we can.
“We’re very fortunate with Oliver as a result of he’s very concerned, he’s a really data-driven supervisor. He’s very particular about what he needs.”
