    More on injuries, Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola "hopes" Marcus Tavernier's hamstring injury will not rule him out for the rest of the season: "I hope he can play the last games, but it is true that it is going to be difficult. If everything goes well, he could be available for us for the last two games, or something like this."

    Iraola added: "It is tough when someone like Tav [Marcus Tavernier] gets a muscle injury and is out for four or five games. But it is something that is happening to all of the teams and we have to accept it."

    Andoni Iraola has been reacting to receiving his first manager of the month award, with the Cherries' boss revealing it isn't something they used to do when he managed in Spain: "I'm really happy that I got it, but obviously I think it is something that is collective for the club. I'm obviously more happy with the points that we got in March. To get 10 points from four games is really nice."

    "I have spent an awful a lot of time talking to Howard Webb (chief refereeing officer for the PGMOL) about offside and I have tried to explain my concerns.

    "Then I'll be happy to discuss openly from what has gone on from the start to the finish. It's best for me to not discuss the charge."

    On VAR decisions: "Not just the club, but I think you can feel it nationally in the whole of the league, there has been a lot of disappointment and frustration with how decisions have gone.

    "It's not all bad. There has been some really good calls, but not only at Wolves. There is a desire from everyone for the standard to improve."

    "I wasn't able to control my emotion well enough to get an explanation," O'Neil said after the game. "The referee said he would rather not discuss it given how I was acting.

    "If you are a Premier League official working at the highest level, I would be really disappointed if you thought that was offside."

    Tariq Lamptey is the latest injury concern for Brighton ahead of their trip to Burnley. The full-back played the whole match in last week's defeat to Arsenal but will miss the trip to Lancashire.

    Manager Roberto De Zerbi said: "The situation is tough. We still have nine injured players. It’s more or less the same squad we played against Arsenal [with], but with no Tariq Lamptey."

    On Billy Gilmour's return: "Billy is better. I don’t know how much time before he can start with us on the pitch but he’s better. James Milner is the same. I think [Adam] Webster, Milner and Billy can be available in the next few weeks."

    "It will be a tough game. We are leaving today and we have had good preparation for it. They are going through a tough time with injuries, like everyone this seaosn, but they have probably been hurt for more of a prolonged period than anyone else.

    "At home they are still a very good side, irrespective of who is out there facing them. We are going to have to match their energy, but it is the way we like to play football too."

    After the disappointing 2-2 draw with Sheffield United last weekend, Mauricio Pochettino questioned his squad, but the Chelsea boss has said he needs to be more careful when he speaks after games.

    "I think I need to be more cautious with my words after the game," he said. "It is a fact that we have a young squad but also I need to adapt a different message.

    "We need to be more positive and we need to accept that is the reality. I think it is sometimes I need to be more positive because we have a really good squad and we need to work to support them."

    "It is just part of the process of planning and the difference from last year is we are well into that planning. Where as last year we had to do it on the run because I came in post-season and we had a big squad then.

    "We had a lot of decisions to make about players who were coming back from loans, players who could go out on loans, players we had to bring in or move out. This year we are a lot more calm in our approach because we've been working on it a while with Johan and the people in the football department."
