Arsenal skipper-for-the-night Theo Walcott, speaking to Sky Sports: "We thought we had bounced back from that bad patch with the draw against Manchester City and win against West Ham. It doesn't look like it after this.
"That wasn't us tonight. We are all disappointed in the changing room, like the fans are - we let them down.
"We don't go out there to lose games, we work the best we can. Tonight it didn't happen. We can only apologise.
"They wanted it more. You could sense that from the kick-off."
Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha, speaking to Sky Sports: "We’re buzzing. It’s a great win. It's a massive confidence boost. It shows that if you have a plan you can beat the big teams. You have to run the whole game and when you get your chance, take it.
"When the second goal went in we felt we could go on and win this comfortably. The win is massive."
