What they Said
"I'm so happy with how we are performing and responding collectively, despite some of our players being out injured.
"We don't feel under pressure. There are 38 matches in a season so lots of points to play for still and a long way to go in terms of being consistent. We have reached December still feeling good, but each match is a test from here on.
"First I must say we are in good form currently. Secondly, I must say we were so poor at the start of the season. We just have to enjoy each moment, compete in each moment, and try to get the best out of it.
**Unai Emery, pre-match.**
"We need to work on our starts because there will be times when we don't have enough to get back into the game. We kept our composure and responded pretty quickly but you don't want to start like that if you can help it.
"I'm pretty confident right now, scoring a few lately. If I score and we win then I am happy. I want to score as much as possible and help the team."
"We're not looking at that at all. People were talking about relegation before so we are not talking about that. It is about being as consistent as possible. At the moment we are in a great run so let's see where that takes us."
**Morgan Rogers, post-match.**
"We needed to keep calm and be consistent and demanding in our game plan. We did everything.
"I believe in their qualities and their confidence so of course shoot.
"I like how the players are responding, how they are getting the challenges we are sending in the dressing room but now everything is done and we go again."
"The players are organised and disciplined in our structure tactically. They must show their quality in our game plan and today they showed it.
"We are not feeling under pressure. we are feeling ambitious and we try to challenge in Europe and in the Premier League. Enjoy each match, try to prepare, then rest. The players must feel comfortable doing it. This is the process we are doing. Now it is Manchester United [next Sunday]."
**Unai Emery, post-match.**
