FT: Man City 5-1 Burnley
Burnley
Burnley manager Scott Parker, speaking to BBC MOTD: "For 70-odd minutes we were right in it and we caused some problems. We executed the gameplan and were encouraged for large parts.
"They scored two quick goals and the back end of the game runs away from us a bit with some mistakes.
"There are fine margins and we knew today we'd need to ride our luck at times. For the first 60-70 minutes we were brave and courageous - not just standing up to things but also with the ball.
"I'm massively confident [in this team]. We've had a tough start and I know there are large parts of our game from these tough fixtures that will stand us in good stead."
