• Mikel Arteta on Bukayo Saka, who left Selhurst Park on crutches: “We are pretty worried about Saka’s injury. He grabbed his hamstring and couldn’t continue. He will have to be assessed but we are pretty worried, yes.”

• Arteta praises Declan Rice’s impact: “When Rice came on, he changed the game, he gave us more dominance, still the same threat but we were much better.”

• Gabriel Jesus: “I’d never go to Arteta’s door and say: I want to play. People say: he played 20 games and scored once. But they don’t say I am coming on for five or ten minutes. Even if I score 10 goals they will ask for 20!”

• Jesus: “When I play with smile on my face, everything is different. I want to work hard, I know my qualities, I can score goals. I just have to put myself in good position to finish the actions.”
