Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson is reluctant to consider his plans next season.
The veteran manager says it's too soon to consider his options.
He said: You've got to be careful suggesting you're going to make a decision on the basis of one particular day when you feel that way. I don't know whether I want to [continue] or not, but I certainly don't have it as a goal to make certain I can keep going and keep going and keep going.
I know that the day will come when it's no longer possible for me to work, so I won't have the offer if you like to work at the level I want to work at. So I know that day is going to come.
I thought it was coming at the end of last season, but it was prolonged by the club asking me to stay on for this season. That's what I'm doing. I don't have any plans or any thoughts beyond that. I want to do well this season.
I want to help the club have a good season and then that will be me finished with Crystal Palace Football Club and whether or not I should want to continue somewhere else, I don't know.
I don't want to say because I had all that, well was it two or three getting on for two and a half years ago now? I had all that for about four or five months: 'You're going to be retire, you're going to carry on?'
And then of course don't retire. Not that I actually said I was going to, but I got sort of retired because people were reading as they thought between the lines in what I was saying. So I got retired then that retirement, lasted four or five months before I went back to Watford, and then another five or six months happened before I came back to Crystal Palace.
I determined not to make any bold statements that this is my last season, but I can say that I'm not actively seeking at the moment or planning what I'm going to do at the end of this season. I'm planning and hoping that I'll have a good season here and then move away and then I'll see what happens."
