Crystal Palace boss Frank De Boer expects the Eagles to play according to his philosophy by January.
De Boer has made his name as a manager who allows his team to play free flowing expansive football and the 47-year-old has now gone on to state that to implement such a style at Palace, he will require around four to five months.
The ex-Ajax boss said: "It takes time but we have very talented players and they would normally be quick learners. If we have the right spirit then it can be quite quickly but after four or five months you would normally say this is what I had in mind.
"Sometimes there are ups and downs but with all the teams it's never perfect but it comes as close to perfect as possible."
