Crystal Palace fired a three word message to Liverpool after a title favour at Arsenal put them on the brink of glory.

They return to action against Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham on Sunday, and should they bag at least one point, then they will land their 20th national league triumph, equalling the record set by rivals Manchester United.

Anfield's finest had assembled to view the Arsenal-Palace match, primed to partake in collective jubilations should events turn to their favour, reminiscent of 2020's scenario when, amidst closed-door games, Liverpool were crowned champions subsequent to Chelsea's victory over Man City in a midweek contest.

Nonetheless, some supporters have expressed a desire for Liverpool to win the crown under their own steam, following one of their own fixtures.

With Arsenal benched this coming weekend and the necessity of a win obsolete for the Reds, they'll have the opportunity to realise that ambition.

Post-match, Palace took to X, and wrote to the league leaders: "You're welcome Liverpool...,"

Arteta conceded that his team "dropped the standards" in their match against Palace, with a crucial Champions League semi-final tie against PSG on the horizon.

The first leg is set to take place at the Emirates on Tuesday.

Arsenal took an early lead within three minutes as Jakub Kiwior nodded in a Martin Odegaard free-kick.

However, Palace equalised with a strike from Eberechi Eze before Leandro Trossard put Arsenal ahead again before the break.

On the other hand, Palace manager Oliver Glasner was overjoyed.

"I'm really proud of the players and how they performed today," he praised.

"But the reaction was great it was unbelievable to be honest.
