    FT: Arsenal 4-0 Everton

    Everton boss Sean Dyche is speaking in his post-match news conference now.

    "I thought we were brave enough in the first 40 minutes but you're super frustrated to go in 2-0 down at half-time after that," he said.

    "You have to bring the home mentality to away games.

    "It's been there a while [away difficulties], it's not a new thing.

    "When players are at the top end of their performance levels it spreads quickly. It's how we can change that and have it rub off on everyone."

    On Idrissa Gueye's error: "Sometimes players get caught in three minds, let alone two minds. We almost got away with it with VAR."

    Wolves

    Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui, speaking to Premier League Productions: "Maybe we could have disrupted their rhythm. We weren't able to do much damage in the space. We put Adama [Traore] on but didn't find the moment, they were aggressive on the press. In the first half we overcome some moments on this press, in the second half no.

    "When you have this type of match, you have to keep the ball and be calm. In the first half we did this, we matched them, but in the second we did not have these chances."

    Speaking to the BBC: "I think that we did not play in the game plan we had in our head. In the first half much better, in the second we did not keep the ball. It was a shame, but they deserved to win.

    "Today is not easy for me to keep positive thinking, maybe in a few days."

    Liverpool

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp speaking to BBC Sport: "We knew it would be a difficult game, we controlled the game in a lot of periods. There were situations rather than chances, we got in a rush in these moments. We got our rhythm back in the second half, we just had to be solid defensively and keep making chances.

    "In general we did defensively well tonight, Diogo in the 10 was really important, the midfield was together, defensively we had a high line and won decisive challenges. Ali [Alisson] didn't have spectacular saves to make which was good.

    "We had a knock against Real Madrid, we played a really good first half then we started the second really bad. We looked a lot more stable today, we have to carry that on."

    On the disallowed goal: "For the boys on the pitch it was a clear goal, but you have to stay focused. We forced the first goal and the second was wonderful."

    "When you look at the players every day you can see how much they want it," says Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta in his post-match news conference.

    "They are so willing to learn. They can never have enough information. When you have that and the talent they have, good things will happen.

    "Zinchenko, his mentality and quality allow us to be more unpredictable."
