Crystal Palace made it through to the UEFA Conference League final on Thursday after a 5-2 aggregate win over Shakhtar Donetsk.<\/p>\n

But unless you\u2019re an Eagles fan, or someone toasting wider English success in Europe, the result was immaterial.<\/p>\n

Most Fantasy managers instead would have been wondering what Thursday\u2019s match at Selhurst Park means for Gameweek 36.<\/p>\n

Palace are one of two clubs playing twice in the upcoming Gameweek,<\/a> with Manchester City also \u2018doubling\u2019.<\/p>\n

Concerns about rotation have dented the Eagles\u2019 appeal<\/a> as we approach their Double Gameweek 36, with Oliver Glasner resting key players in three of the last four Premier League matches.<\/a><\/p>\n

What chance of more tinkering from the Palace head coach on Sunday, then?<\/p>\n

GLASNER ON SUNDAY\u2019S CLASH WITH EVERTON<\/p>\n

Glasner didn\u2019t quite touch on the prospect of more rotation in his post-match interviews, only revealing that he had given the players a day off \u2013 and a night out in London on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, I\u2019ve just given them [the day] off tomorrow. One day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a good experience after the FA Cup win, and we had a bad experience after winning against Shakhtar in the first leg. We trained the next day [after Shakhtar], and I think the players were really not in good shape at Bournemouth. So, maybe this helps when they are out somewhere in London! But they deserve it. They really deserve it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t mean that\u2026 we said to the players, \u201cWe don\u2019t wave the white flag against Everton\u201d. But I think it\u2019s important [to give them a day off]. [With] all these emotions, they can\u2019t sleep. It\u2019s not possible to sleep after such a night. And so they should enjoy themselves and should sleep and should rest and then on Saturday, we will meet and prepare for Everton. Of course, it\u2019s now getting everything planned in the right way. So, that means we [the management team] don\u2019t have [the day] off. We will plan tomorrow.\u201d \u2013 Oliver Glasner to TNT Sports<\/p>\n

The Palace boss did, encouragingly, say that fatigue wasn\u2019t an issue against Shakhtar.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think what we always show is 100% commitment, 100% effort. We don\u2019t always play on our top level, but it was our 55th game today, and I think nobody looked fatigued.\u201d \u2013 Oliver Glasner to TNT Sports<\/p>\n

WILL WE HEAR FROM GLASNER AGAIN BEFORE THE GAMEWEEK 36 DEADLINE?<\/p>\n

We should indeed get more quotes from Glasner on Friday, potentially in the form of an embargoed section from Thursday\u2019s post-match presser.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Eagles head coach will likely talk more about the Everton game then, having not touched upon Sunday\u2019s match in the publicly available section of last night\u2019s press conference.<\/p>\n
