Quotes corner

Graham Potter

“I wouldn’t say kickstart as we’ve played only 15 matches, such a lot has happened in those 15 matches and I’ve been here only four months – and it feels longer than that if I’m honest.

It’s a season that is obviously unique. We see Man City as an opportunity to play against one of the best teams in the world. It will be a different game to the one we faced [on New Year’s Day at Forest] but it will be complicated and tough.

“You need those games [like Forest], and you need these ones as well. As much as we want to win – and I don’t want to sound like it’s acceptable to lose; it’s not – but unfortunately part of the game is dropping points, is not succeeding.

"You’ve got to suffer and get better. When I think back to how I got to this point, a lot of the things are the setbacks and the moments of struggle.”

Betting odds

Chelsea- 4/1
