Has Jorgen Strand Larsen been injured at Palace, or is he an overrated player who got lucky thanks to having Rayan Ait-Nouri and Matheus Cunha feeding him chance after chance?
Every time I now check up on Palace, he's not in the team, and when he is he can't score. I watched one Palace game and he was awful.

The awful ex-striker picks up a winner's medal. We were so far in front of these lot a few seasons ago. Unforgivable.

Please, let's have some reality on where/who Wolves are as a club. Crystal Palace has been in the Premier League for 13 or 14 seasons. They've had two FA Cup finals, one FA Cup final win, a Community Shield win, and now a Conference League win. Even when Wolves had a short spell above Palace, they won nothing.
Two 7th place finishes in the PL, an FA Cup semi-final, and a Europa League quarter-final don't make Wolves the incredible side that enjoyed years of sustained success, but then threw everything away.
It could be argued that Wolves simply punched above their weight for a short while and then fell away.
Wolves have spent more time in the Championship than the Premier League. Promotion next season is possible, but they'll likely struggle when back in the PL.

Everyone keeps calling JSL awful, personally I thought he had a very good first season. Ok, he fell away after, but was this due to injuries or poor tactics? Look who we have ended up with now in the number 9 shirt, all huff and puff with no end product, and he's more appreciated for it.

Ice, your comments are not good enough. We are a club with a losing mentality. Strand Larssen, yet another who has stuck two fingers up at us. Shi and Fosun have made sure our heritage has waned even further. We can only sit back and watch as others continue to move forwards by legal, or in certain cases, illegal means.
Sit back and admire in wonder at the arrogance of others as they tell Talksport they are "going to be the biggest club in the world".
We have to accept everything and anything associated with Wolverhampton Wanderers amounts to failure.

Like any organisation, it's about getting key personnel into the critical positions and holding on to them. If you can't do that, you need to be able to replace them and to anticipate that change occurring. The winning mentality will evolve naturally if the recruitment at all levels is good, and improvement is visible to all.
Fosun made a good start, but were unable to build on those first two seasons.
Change management in any organisation is incredibly difficult, and probably impossible other than by luck with the wrong people at the top.
Liverpool's transition from Shankly to Paisley overnight is a perfect example, something Man Utd post Busby and Ferguson couldn't manage. In reality, most clubs have never transitioned seamlessly from success to success. It will be interesting to see what happens at Man City.
