'Last 30 minutes we fight, that's what I want to see'
Nottm Forest 3-2 Southampton
Moving on to the City Ground and starting with Southampton manager Ivan Juric who, more than anyone right now, is in need of a pick-me-up.
His players almost handed it to him with a rousing late recovery against Nottingham Forest:
"Second half we played with the heart, with energy and intensity. We did two goals, we had other chances to score. Second half is how we have to play," he said.
"Last 30 minutes we fight, that's what I want to see...but still we are not ready for 90 minutes and that's really a pity."
'We weren't at our best and they were outstanding'
Ipswich 0-6 Man City
Kieran McKenna did his best to find the positives in what he acknowledged was a "gulf in class" between his relegation-threatened Ipswich side and defending champions Manchester City:
"A painful game for us beaten by a world-class side. They were too good for us on the day. There was positives in the early parts of the game. We actually had a lot of good moments in the first 20, 25 minutes but after the first goal they [City] hit top form and top confidence.
"We weren't able to find a response and weren't able to stop them today. We weren't at our best and they were outstanding. When that's the case the gulf between us was too much on the day."
'Not just about winning titles, it's the joy to do your best'
Ipswich 0-6 Man City
Pep Guardiola was happy to see his Manchester City side go back to basics at Portman Road and rekindle their enjoyment of the game:
"A long time it didn't happen. We have got some good results lately but our games was not like today. The most important thing is the result, to climb a bit in the table to try for qualification for the Champions League.
"But it's not just about winning titles, it's the joy to do your best, whether you are a professional or amateur...the joy to play good, not just for the three points.
"I think today the players improved many things and hopefully they can begin to recognise ourselves again."

Sunday's final game offered a timely warning to Manchester City's rivals as the defending Premier League champions looked like their old selves against struggling Ipswich at Portman Road.
After letting slip a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with Brentford in their last league outing, Pep Guardiola's side returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion.
Phil Foden was particularly excellent as he scored twice and assisted another of the six goals, with his double coming in the first half.
Mateo Kovacic, Jeremy Doku, Erling Haaland and substitute James McAtee also found the net in a victory that moved City up to fourth on 38 points, while Ipswich remain in the bottom three with 16 points.
Forest hang on to beat Saints
Nottm Forest 3-2 Southampton
Matthew Henry
BBC Sport
Nottingham Forest moved level on points with second-placed Arsenal after withstanding an unlikely comeback by bottom club Southampton at the City Ground.
The hosts looked in total control with a 3-0 lead inside 41 minutes, following goals from Elliot Anderson, Callum Hudson-Odoi and a 14th of the season from Chris Wood.
A fortuitous Jan Bednarek goal for Saints and Paul Onuachu's thumping header - in the first of 12 added minutes - set up an unexpectedly tense finale.
Southampton, who had battled back brilliantly in the second half, then almost snatched an equaliser but Ola Aina spectacularly cleared Bednarek's header off the line.
Unbeaten now in eight league games with seven wins and a draw, Forest remain third on goal difference, while Southampton have lost 18 games this season, including all five league matches since Ivan Juric was appointed in December, and stay bottom of the table with six points.
Everton beat Spurs to pile pressure on Postecoglou
Everton 3-2 Tottenham
Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writer
Everton started the road to recovery under returning manager David Moyes and piled more pressure on his struggling Tottenham counterpart Ange Postecoglou with an impressive victory at Goodison Park.
Spurs were shambolic for long periods as they were overrun by a resurgent Everton, who had won only three Premier League matches this season - scoring 15 goals - before this game.
Everton deservedly led 3-0 at the interval, then survived a late Spurs revival as the scoreline was given an appearance that did not reflect the difference between the sides.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin ended a barren Premier League scoring sequence stretching back to September - and lasting 1,288 minutes - when he turned Archie Gray twice in the area before leaving Spurs keeper Antonin Kinsky wrong-footed with a smart finish.
Everton added a second on the half-hour when Iliman Ndiaye twisted Radu Dragusin inside out before firing high past Kinsky and compounded Spurs' misery in first-half stoppage time when Gray turned into his own net after James Tarkowski's header took a touch off Calvert-Lewin.
Spurs pulled a goal back through Dejan Kulusevski's clever lofted finish with 13 minutes left, with former Everton striker Richarlison increasing the nerves by bundling home in injury time.
But the hosts held out for a deserved win on a day to savour for the returning Moyes.
Onana howler helps Brighton win at Man Utd
Man Utd 1-3 Brighton
Simon Stone
BBC Sport's chief football news reporter
Brighton capitalised on a disastrous mistake from Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana to condemn their hosts to a fourth defeat in five Premier League home games and leave Ruben Amorim's side rooted in the bottom half of the table.
The visitors were already leading thanks to goals from Yankuba Minteh and Kauro Mitoma when Onana came sliding out to collect a low Yasin Ayari cross.
It seemed an easy enough take but somehow Onana managed to grab the ball, then release it. Substitute Georginio Rutter could not believe his luck as he turned the ball into an empty net, with Onana left exasperated at his inexplicable failure.
It was hardly the way United's players would have wanted to mark the death of legendary striker Denis Law, but they deserved nothing more.
What is going wrong for Man Utd and Spurs?
OK, that last post has to come with the admission that most of the messages we have been getting from you this morning have not come with positive vibes. Far from it.
The majority have questioned Ruben Amorim's thinking in describing his team as the worst in Manchester United's history, or called for an explanation as to just what is going on at Tottenham.
Just a reminder that Sunday's defeats left United in 13th place in the Premier League table, two points and two places better off than Spurs.
We will have a look at both matches - United's 3-1 loss at home to Brighton and Spurs' 3-2 defeat at Everton - in more detail next and bring you all the latest reaction, including a selection of your Get Involved messages.
'Keep positive'
Man Utd 1-3 Brighton
When Denis Law left Manchester United in 1973 they were in sharp decline.
He went on to score a famous backheel goal at Old Trafford for his new side Manchester City in 1974 on a day that United were last relegated from the top flight.
That fact should provide an important reminder for Ruben Amorim that, while he has dubbed his side as "maybe the worst in United's history", things have been worse.
Amorim was involved in a long conversation with former United manager Sir Alex Ferguson as he left the pitch following Sunday's tribute to Law.
According to Amorim, Ferguson told him to "keep positive".
The Scot should know.
In the 1989-90 season, his side had less points (24) at this stage of the campaign than Amorim's does now (26), yet went on to win the FA Cup - the first trophy of his reign.
The rest, they say, is history.
'Old Trafford pays its respects to the king'
Monday's newspapers
The Daily Mail
We finish our round-up of today's national newspapers with a bit of context from the Mail.
Before Sunday's 3-1 defeat at home to Brighton, Manchester United fans, including current and former players and staff, gathered at Old Trafford to pay a touching tribute to one of the club's greatest ever players, Denis Law, who was known as "the king".
Law died on Friday, aged 84.
He won the European Cup, two English titles and the FA Cup in his 11 years with Manchester United, and is the only Scottish player to have been awarded the Ballon d'Or.
