Arsenal were simply not good enough against Crystal Palace as they fell to a 3-0 defeat at Selhurst Park.
Premier League: Crystal Palace 3 (Townsend 17, Cabaye 63, Milivojevic 68-pen) bt Arsenal 0.
Chants including "Arsene Wenger, we want you to go", "We want Wenger out" and "You're not fit to wear the shirt" were clearly audible inside the ground, with Arsenal's players then subjected to verbal abuse as they headed for the team coach.

"They are extremely disappointed and I can understand that, like we all are".
"I am determined to put things right, the worry is not me, it is that we lost a big game and it is a big worry".
After a run of five defeats in eight Premier League games, Arsenal have fallen from second to sixth - seven points behind fourth-placed Manchester City who have played a game more.

"One or two more results and we should be safe, but it's a massive night for everybody, and a huge week for us all".
