  1. 'Proud and happy'published at 17:25 Greenwich Mean Time

    FT: Manchester United 1-3 Brighton

    Brighton & Hove Albion

    Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler, speaking to Sky Sports: "We showed a very good performance and had good balance. We dominated and made good chances in the second half."

    On doing the double against Manchester United this season: "We are proud and happy but these games only give three points so we have to keep pushing. It's special to win at Old Trafford against a club with big tradition, therefore we are happy but we have to keep working day by day."

    On making changes at half-time: "There is always some advice, half time is there to let players what we need to do to win. I's only small changes and it's up to the players to win the game."

  2. 'We have to stare criticism in face and take it on the chin'published at 17:24 Greenwich Mean Time

    FT: Everton 3-2 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham midfielder James Maddison talking to Sky Sports: "Too little too late, wasn't it? We're in a tough moment there's no denying it. It was a tough afternoon.

    "They were quite direct but we should do better for the goals. We need to be more resilient, tougher to score against really, collectively. It was a tough first half.

    "We're in a tough moment with a very depleted squad. There is no excuse for the first half. The message at half time was to be resilient and take a bit of pride and we nearly got back it into but it was too little too late. It was a tough afternoon.

    "We had 11 fit senior players ready to start. There is context to it. Despite that, the first half was unacceptable. The fans will have their opinion and criticise, and rightly so. We just have to stare that in the face and take it on the chin. They probably don't want to see me talking too much, they want to a see a reaction and we've got an opportunity to do that at Hoffenheim on Thursday."

  3. 'Three points will give us a lot of confidence'published at 17:23 Greenwich Mean Time

    FT: Everton 3-2 Tottenham

    Everton

    Everton manager David Moyes talking to BBC Match of the Day: "It feels fantastic. It has been a relatively difficult week with two games against difficult opponents. We didn't do too bad in midweek but we did a really good job today, especially in the first half. Once they got one it was a little bit scary I have to be honest.

    "Dominic [Calvert-Lewin] had three big chances in midweek and was a little bit unlucky. If they get chances you are saying 'come on, it is your job to score it' so maybe confidence is coming back into his game. He played more like a traditional centre forward today and was a real handful for them. He probably could have scored another one today but that is a good start for him.

    "Sometimes centre forwards just need goals and then can start to work on things they need to do better. He doesn't feel like he's been getting chances but the past couple of games he has been.

    "Everybody has to chip in because goals have certainly been difficult to come by here.

    "I thought we played well today. The three points will give us a lot of confidence. It was unlike us to concede goals but you can't take away from what Tottenham do."

  4. 'We need to be brave'published at 17:22 Greenwich Mean Time

    FT: Manchester United 1-3 Brighton

    Manchester United

    Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We can't concede goals so easily. We need to be more aggressive on the ball because this is the Premier League and the quality is so high.

    "You have to be high intensity all the time. We need to be braver on the ball in the final third and between the lines. I need to keep the ball more between the lines and then play from there.

    "We can't end up all the time with the ball at our goalkeeper like we do all the time. I believe that it's confidence and bravery to do the right things.

    "Don't have fear of doing mistakes, that's part of football. We have to be brave to do it again and again. It doesn't matter how much pressure is on you or how difficult it is to play for Manchester United."

    Right, a 15-minute pause of the pain for Ipswich fans and time for some more quotes from the earlier matches.

    What a difference a fully fit Kevin de Bruyne makes. Absolute class.

    Man City have been very good. Ipswich had a few chances on the counter-attack, but nothing enough to concern Manchester City.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 17:18 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ipswich Town 0-3 Manchester City

    Three goals and surely three points for Manchester City.

    Ipswich had a bright spell in the opening 20 minutes but have been taken to the cleaners since. Two goals and an assist for Phil Foden, with the other goal coming from Mateo Kovacic.

    You did feel that someone was due a hiding from City. The players, system and coach are too good for the recent slump to last forever. Foden’s form is ominous for the rest of the league.

    Ipswich Town 0-3 Manchester City

    That third goal could be an important one for City as that takes them up to fourth in the Premier League, above Newcastle United on goals scored as it stands.

    Jeremy Doku's ball through to Kevin de Bruyne. Four times that De Bruyne has been down the left-hand-side.

    De Bruyne looks up and finds Phil Foden making that run across to the front post.

    Christian Walton does well, he is a bit unfortunate - it squirms underneath him.

    Phil Foden

    So so easy for Manchester City. Jeremy Doku is released down the left wing and he in turn plays it to Kevin de Bruyne.

    His low cross is met by Phil Foden and his shot creeps under a sprawling Christian Walton. Two goals and an assist for Foden, two assists for De Bruyne.

    I love Sam Morsy and what he's done for the club but sadly I just don't think he's good enough for our midfield in the Premier League

    Kevin de Bruyne with a snapshot.

    He takes a touch into the box and he launches himself into the shot - he is trying to get power through the ball.

    It swerves over the crossbar.

    Ipswich Town 0-2 Manchester City

    City want more goals and they are probably going to get them.

    Kevin de Bruyne pings one just over the bar. Kieran McKenna said his side lost belief when 1-0 down to Brighton on Thursday, so being 2-0 behind after 31 minutes at home to the reigning champions isn't going to do much for their confidence.

    This could get messy.

    Manchester City have scored 24 first-half goals in 22 games, more than any other team in the Premier League this season.

    "Going down with United," is the chant from the taunting Manchester City fans, although Manchester United would need some capitulation in the second half of the season as they are currently 10 points adrift of the relegation zone.

  18. 'A fantastic strike'published at 33 mins

    Mateo Kovacic has smashed it.

    As the ball gets played in Phil Foden lays it off to Mateo Kovacic - a fantastic strike.

    It gave Christian Walton no chance. The pace of it beats the goalkeeper.

    Two goals in three minutes and that could be this game done and dusted already.

    After Phil Foden's opener, he gets an assist shortly afterwards. He tees up Mateo Kovacic who drills a strike low and hard through a crowded penalty area and into the back of the net.

    It's brilliant play from Manchester City. Kevin de Bruyne and Jeremy Doku combine.

    Phil Foden had a lot to do, he takes a nice touch and he slots it into that near post area.

    City deserve it.
