Emery acknowledged that the team was motivated to perform well, but ultimately couldn't match Palace's level of play.

He recognized that the team has made significant progress in recent years, including reaching the FA Cup semi-finals and competing in the Champions League, and expressed his desire to continue improving and pushing for European qualification through the Premier League.

Emery emphasized the importance of staying motivated and focused, even in the face of disappointment, and reminded the players and fans that their objective is to secure a European spot in the Premier League.

He encouraged the supporters to stay behind the team and provide energy for the remaining matches, particularly the upcoming game against Fulham at home.

Emery's message to the fans was clear: the team will keep working towards their goal of playing in Europe consistently.
