That's right, this has been the worst season for Man City under Pep Guardiola, I didn't expect them to go down this badly. A narrow win was enough for Crystal Palace to secure the FA Cup, although throughout the match we saw Man City dominate the game. I think maybe it's time for Pep Guardiola to change his strategy, which emphasizes too much ball possession, because even mediocre clubs can now easily overcome Man City attacking patterns.

Of course, Crystal Palace deserve applause for their success this season, the FA Cup has ended their long trophy drought. Pep Guardiola next task is to shift focus to the Premier League to get Man City back into the top five. It would be very disappointing if Pep Guardiola also fails to get a ticket to the Champions League next season.

Congratulations to Crystal Palace for showing Manchester City how it's done, seems they didn't learn from that Manchester United loss!
With this Palace win they get a Europa slot for next season and also another opportunity of bagging another trophy 🏆 in the Community Shield 🛡️ which I see them getting as Silverware opportunities don't always present themselves for such teams and they won't blow the opportunity.

This was a big surprise that happened at the end of this season, Crystal Palace's journey to reach the FA Cup final and win it was not easy. Starting from the quarter-finals, the opponent they faced was not easy, namely Fulham, but surprisingly in that match they managed to beat Fulham with a landslide score of 3-0, and continued to the semifinals the opponent they faced was Aston Villa, a team that performed quite well for this season and became one of the strong candidates to win the FA Cup, but again Crystal Palace gave a surprise by successfully beating Aston Villa with a landslide score of 3-0.

And in this, the big surprise happened again for the third time, the team they faced was not an easy team, Man City is one of the best teams in the English league coached by one of the best coaches in the world, but again and again Crystal Palace was able to silence the team with one goal without reply. This is not just a victory, but this is an achievement that shows how strong the crystal palace defense is for this season, where starting from the quarter-final match to the final match against man city, Crystal palace did not concede a single goal. This is extraordinary, so congratulations on the victory achieved by Palace, and congratulations on enjoying the champion ... !!!!

There is still one hope for Pep to win a trophy this season, which is by winning the FIFA Club World Cup, because Man City is one of the participants in the tournament held every four years, but I am not sure enough that Man City can achieve it. Maybe this season will be one of the worst seasons for Man City after being coached by Pep Guardiola.

And regarding the FA Cup final match, I did not expect that this match would end in defeat for Man City, the defense of Crystal Palace was really strong and solid so that it was quite difficult to be broken down by Man City's attackers, and the counterattack carried out by Crystal Palace players was really inevitable so that one goal managed to nest in Man City's goal and became the only goal scored in the match.

It was the only trophy Pep and Mancehster City could get this season but they made up for it with a narrow defeat in the final.

Speaking of bad seasons, this was probably the worst one because it was the one season where they didn't get a single trophy until the end which made the assessment of Manchester City change a bit.
They are still a big club but their mentality is a little disturbed especially in attack where this season their goal productivity has really dropped dramatically compared to previous seasons.

The match was very interesting even though it was only a partial match as Crystal Palace played passively in defense but their concentration was worthy of praise as they remained focused until the end even though they were continuously attacked.
Congratulations to Crystal Palace because they managed to make a difference where the final that was clearly Manchester City was very favored actually managed to Crystal Palace win.

The Premier League can be humbling. Pep Guardiola is having his fair share of struggles coaching a Premier League club and to be honest Pep has won everything and dominated English football for 4 years with Manchester City. Pep Guardiola is not leaving the club anytime soon, as long as he’s still there Manchester City will bounce back to winning ways.

Indeed, this is truly a win for the underdog team for as a matter of fact, I was going to bet on this game live when it started and popped up on my android screen, I thought this was a good opportunity to make some money which I will spend on beer 🍺 today being Sunday, and guess who I was going to bet on? It's Manchester city, I was kind of very sure they will beat Crystal palace and win the trophy, but how wrong I was...

And thank goodness I later ended up not placing the bet because something else called my attention which I tried to attend to and by the time I came back, crystal palace had already secured 1 goal in the 16th minute of the match, I become confused and no longer sure of Manchester city winning, that was how I changed my mind and didn't bet any longer, else I would have lost my money.

I agree with you, is not easy for the players and the coach of the side, a journey that I never thought would get this far since we all know how crazy this team use to be and now their mentality have changed for good. But coming to the Citizens, as of last season if this chance was given to them it will be a work over for City because the pressure they gave Palace yesterday would have been different and Pep and his boys would have snatched the trophy off Palace, we all know how City played last season and we can't say the Manchester City of last season and the one that played this very finals are the same but all the same congratulations to Crystal Palace and to Henderson who gave his 100% to stop every chances City had to get a goal, especially that penalty...it was a wonderful save.
Finishing in the champions league spot is not going to be a problem for the Citizens because that's all they need right now and they'll surely get it. The remaining two games might not be an easy one since they have been struggling against the smaller teams but I still believe that since they have their scoring machine Haaland in the starting 11 things might go their way. Bournemouth seem to be stubborn in the last 3 games even if they couldn't get all 3pt but they made sure their opponent don't find it easy and that's what will happen against City.

Crystal Palace is always a difficult opponent for Manchester City to beat, but after Manchester City came from 2 goals down to beat Crystal Palace in the Premier League, I just believed the Emirates FA Cup final was just a walkover match for Manchester City without knowing that Crystal Palace would pull off a surprising win against Manchester City. After Manchester City failed to win either the Premier League title or the Carabao Cup, the Emirates FA Cup was the only trophy Manchester City could have used to compensate their fans for their awful performance this season, but they also failed to win the Emirates FA Cup trophy.

Almost everyone who loves football thought that Manchester City would win against Crystal Palace to make up for their bad performance in all competitions this season. I played Manchester City to win against Crystal Palace with over 2.5 goals on my bet slip because I believed that Manchester City wouldn't give Crystal Palace a chance of winning the Emirates FA Cup trophy, but I didn't know that Crystal Palace was very much prepared and determined to win against Manchester City in the Emirates FA Cup final, which caused me to lose some money.
