MICK McCARTHY:
"For 55 minutes I was delighted with how we set up to frustrate them. We blinked once, they played through us and we’ve been done.”
"But in fairness to the lads, they kept going and fought until the end which I can’t fault.”
“But I am worried that we never did much upfront and never really threatened them.”
"It’s always disappointing when you lose. But I said to the players that we won’t be playing against them every week; they will be near the top. That’s the standard.”
“We have a squad capable of beating most teams, these were different than what we will usually come up against.”
"Our only problem is that even though we managed to stop them, we created very little until the end of the game."

We were playing Bournemouth, a good side admittedly, but not Man City. And we beat them at their place at the back end of last season.
