***City v Exeter FA Cup Official Match Thread***

"I think a lot of good performances today," said Lijnders. "A lot of good individual performances. I think when the team plays like that it becomes easier for the individual, but Antoine is settling well.

"He is a humble guy and we have followed him for a long time, but he brings something to the frontline - what we really want and what we need.

"He can attack quick, he wants to chase, he is a guy who doesn't stop. I think you see today that he can adapt quite quickly to our style. It's nice to have him with us."

Nice that from Lijnders. No sly digs

Thought he spoke very well in the post match interview. Informative about what is happening behind the scenes as well . Makes a change from trying to interpret Peps thoughts

I would rather have him than Maresca, to be honest.

First City game for my lad. He was starting to think he was an Arsenal fan so a quick slap and home tie FA Cup so easy to get tickets. 10-1 tonic delivered. Became a blue soon as he saw the pitch and Haaland warming up.

Lovely this mate

Crossing your lad got the same treatment i got for my first ever City game, a 10-1. Fortunately for me I was in the Huddersfield away end.
