Graham Potter, speaking to Sky Sports: "Well beaten by the better team. Manchester City were very good. They've got players who can hurt you pretty much everywhere. We were disappointed with how the second half petered out, but it was a big ask. Congratulations to them, they deserved to win by the margin they did. They're one of the best teams in world football, so there's no disgrace from our perspective. We want to put it to bed as soon as we can."
