"We have a bit of work to do, psychologically, with the players. I think the players will have learned from a lot of similar games this season, bit of work to do today and tomorrow and we will be fine come kick-off."
"For our supporters, for the city, we know when the fixtures came out this was one that was in the mind of everybody. We have to play for all of our people in this game, showing the passion with control and with quality and they will be key ingredients."
"You need a little bit of everything. Anger, passion, emotion, but you need to control it because too much of one can be a negative. This game is a great game off the back of what happened Wednesday as there's no time to dwell on it too much."
"The focus for us is to try and win the game. Looking back at past records and results won't help us. Every game is different and the next one is so important."
