Arsenal 3-2 Crystal Palace: ‘We played with too much respect’ – Oliver Glasner reacts after defeat

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner: “It was the perfect start but already in the first half we looked like we played with too much respect, a little bit too cautious. Especially in possession.

“We need a performance of our top level and it was not a performance at our top level.

“It was positive that we scored two goals, but at the end it is a little bit frustrating because if you score two at the Emirates then it should have been a penalty shootout at least.”

On Arsenal’s second goal: “I think it was offside but there is no VAR. Everyone knows this. They had too many chances in the second half, we gave them too many chances. When they found the gaps we shifted too slow.”
