Quotes
"I think we were winning, so they started to press more, and they are more aggressive as well," Man City winger Jeremy Doku said after his side's draw against Everton.
"And then it's on us to stay calm in those situations. We know that one point can be important at the end. Happy to score and happy to help the team."
"We will see. It feels painful now. There is still a lot of games to go. We lost two points today. We will keep on fighting - we owe it to ourselves and to our fans."
