Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola speaking to Match of the Day: "We gave away two points. We had a good performance. We controlled the transitions really well and made a lot of set pieces but Crystal Palace’s second goal cannot happen at this level. We took bad decisions in the 18-yard box and we were punished."
We were punished'
FT: Man City 2-2 Crystal Palace
Manchester City
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "We give away two points for our mistake and what can I say? We do everything and a team that defends in the box like so, so deep. They arrive and we are punished but we have to be more calm and composed in that position. It is not the first time but it is what it is. Move forward, learn and [go to the] next one.
"It is so difficult, the physicality of them. But yeah the penalty cannot happen. It's happened so at the end in that level they punish you."
Woys view.
Our pride was stolen last week'
FT: Man City 2-2 Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "The masterplan was decided by the fact we had to get our best and most senior players on the pitch, because we have so many missing. It meant finding a way of getting both Ward and Clyne on the field. We did that by moving Ward in one and played with five at the back. Then we decided to take the risk on Eze. We wouldn't have done it at 2-0 and we thought at 2-1 it was worth the risk.
"Last week was specific in the way the game and any joy I thought I should have had from that game and any pride in the team performance was stolen by the way the game panned out."
Patience is the key' - Hodgson

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson speaking to Match of the Day: "Our first goal changed things really. Michael Olise was posing a few questions with his skill when he got up into that half of the field and I thought Jean-Philippe Mateta was excellent all through the game with his running and holding the ball up but of course, when you’re playing Manchester City in the form they’re in and with the quality of players they have, you’ve got to accept that patience is going to be the key.
"They’re going to have the ball a lot more than you and if you start trying to take chances and attack them too early, then they’re going to cut through you. As it happens, we got to 2-1 which gave us some hope I suppose and we then thought, we’ll take a few chances now and we will have a go at it and luckily it paid off for us."
