KALVIN PHILLIPS REACTION

I think we are very happy with three more points. Three more points closer to Arsenal and we are chasing them.

In the first half we played really well and in the second half our standards slipped a little. Towards the end there were a few mistakes and we had a couple of substitutions. I had a bit of a stinker to be honest, as Ederson saved it onto me and that resulted in their goal. Overall we are happy with the first 60 minutes or so.

PEP GUARDIOLA REACTION

It was a really good game after the Champions League as well, against a team that is fighting in a difficult position for them. In the end when you make a lot of substitutions you drop a little bit. [We got the] three points and onto the next one.

It was completely different because the guys that start the second half it was the same approach as the beginning. I have a little bit of experience to play in three days in the important stages and you make a lot of substitutions and some dynamics we have and some players don't. And when the game was under control we made the changes.

ALL OVER

City secure the three points with a 3-1 victory and Pep Guardiola and Dean Smith embrace at full-time.

DOWN IN THE BOX

James Maddison wants a penalty again after going down following a nutmeg on Sergio Gomez but it's not given.

OFF THE POST

Almost another for the visitors. Iheanacho's low shot beats Ederson but his shot hits the inside of the post.
