Premier League: Arsenal's top-four hopes suffer blow with 3-0 defeat at Crystal Palace
Arsenal's hopes of securing a top-four Premier League finish this season were dealt a blow as the below-par visitors suffered a 3-0 defeat against rampant Crystal Palace on Monday. Arsenal were put to the sword in the first half by the clinical hosts, with goals from forwards Jean-Philippe Mateta and Jordan Ayew giving Palace a deserved 2-0 interval lead. The Londoners improved after the break, with Emile Smith Rowe and Martin Odegaard missing big chances to get their team back in the match. Their wastefulness proved costly as Wilfried Zaha put the game to bed with a penalty 16 minutes from time.
Arsenal's Top Four Bid Rocked In "Unacceptable" Crystal Palace Defeat
Mikel Arteta apologised for Arsenal's "unacceptable" performance in a 3-0 defeat at Crystal Palace that dealt a significant blow to their bid to finish in the Premier League's top four. Arteta's side were destroyed by first half goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Jordan Ayew at Selhurst Park on Monday. Unable to muster a revival after the break, Arsenal's second defeat in their last three league games was sealed by Wilfried Zaha's late penalty. Arsenal had gone into the weekend in fourth place, but Tottenham's 5-1 win against Newcastle on Sunday piled pressure on the Gunners and their response could not have been any less convincing.

Kieran Tierney could be out for rest of season with Mikel Arteta "not positive" on chances
Mikel Arteta admits he is "not positive" about Kieran Tierney returning before the season ends.
Every word Mikel Arteta said on Partey's injury, Tierney's absence, Tavares sub and Spurs
Yes especially in the first half. Congratulations first of all to Crystal Palace for winning the match and the way they performed, but we weren’t at the races today especially in the first half. We were late to every ball, we were soft in the duels and we didn’t earn the right to play. When we did a little bit we were sloppy on the ball and we didn’t have any dominance, any sequences of play where we could take some control of the game and we conceded two poor goals. Overall it’s unacceptable, we put our hands up, apologise, regroup. Tomorrow is a new day and a new opportunity to prepare the group against Brighton.
Arsenal stay fifth after Palace humbling
