“So proud of the boys. Coming to City at home is daunting. It challenges every part of you. Everything today. We had to be disciplined and work hard and play proper football and we did. Our football made the difference today.”

“It was a remarkable performance.”

“You have to be sharp, they don’t give you many chances. We are calm and mature in the way we handle the ball. When you face City you can be scared and not want to play against them, but you have to play.”

“They test you in every way, mentally, physically and tactically. This year we are a much better team than last year. We just need to find consistency.”

On James Maddison: “Not just the goals, he’s been a key part of our midfield. He works hard defensively. He’s had a bit of a bad run of form but he’s been with us through the international break. He’s determined to get back to the level he wants to be. It’s been a perfect game for him.”

“He’s not that out of form, he’s just setting the bar high. Part of it is me, I have to get the best out of the players.”

On the centre-backs: “Excellent. Ben (Davis) and Radu (Dragusin) were outstanding, and Vicario too when we needed him. They weren’t just defensive, part of it was playing out from the back. They showed courage and were rewarded.”

“I don’t feel like we’ve lost confidence. We’re just disappointed with two or three games where we couldn’t play at that level,”( zbet911 )
