Every word from Glasner and Guéhi’s pre-FA Cup final press conference

On how much the game means…

OG: I don't know. If something happens for the first time in your life, then maybe it means more to you than when you have it every single year.

City, I don't know, how many trophies they have won, how many finals they have played, so definitely more than Crystal Palace has. For the players, for the manager, for a club, winning a trophy, winning a title, it's always something great in a season.

So I don't expect that they will wave the white flag and then say, ‘OK, it's the first title for Crystal Palace, you should get it.’ So I think they will fight to win it.

On how up the players are for the final...

MG: I think they're really aware of how up for it we are. The manager has mentioned the process, that's training, that's the preparation, and that's just focusing on the game.

Not focusing on the trophy or anything else, but making sure that when we go out there, we're ourselves, we enjoy the occasion, and we stay focused when we do the best that we can.

I'm not sure if it's the most talented side ever. We've had so many amazing and great players at this football club, and that's a credit to the football club, that's a credit to the scouting and all the departments upstairs making the right decisions.

I'd say it would be a combination of all the effort that every single person has put in at this football club, not just this season, but previous seasons, credit to the players that have helped the club stay in the Premier League and help build it and allow it to be where it is today.

So, yeah, it'd be a big thing for everyone, not just this team, but for every single person that has played a part in Crystal Palace.
