Sage Given More Time as Crystal Palace Manager Amidst Heavy Defeat

Crystal Palace manager Pierre Sage is under significant pressure following a heavy 5-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion. The loss, which matches a 70-year record for the club's worst defeat against their rivals, has intensified scrutiny over Sage's future.

Despite the poor performance and the club conceding the most goals in the Premier League this season, Sage has been granted additional time to address the team's defensive frailties. However, he has been warned that immediate improvements are expected, with potential replacements reportedly being considered.
