Enzo Maresca on @elljanderson's substitution: "I think it was cramp. That's why I said we still have four or five players that they are not 100% [fit], and he is one of them..." [via @ManCity]
Enzo Maresca on @rayan_cherki: "The impact was unbelievable, but he's that kind of player! I like Rayan, I told him also after the game.
"Sometimes when you plan a game, and you have already on the pitch four of the 11 that arrived late [from summer], sometimes you think, 'If we go one more, five [it's too much]'. And sometimes also you plan for the last 30 minutes of the second-half.
"So I think what they have to do when they don't play from the start is what Rayan has done today: Just be ready, go on, and try to do your best..."

Enzo Maresca on why he started @MarcGuehi13 in midfield: "Sometimes you visualise things; I know Marc from [Crystal] Palace and always thought he could play midfielder because he's very good. So we tried in the first two days as a central defender stepping [up], and then tried in the last two days simply as a midfielder. And I think it was quite good..." [via @BBCRMsport]
Marc Guehi on playing midfield: "I enjoyed it today, simply because I had so much help from every single person, and so much support from the team, and when you have that, you feel comfortable to just go out, play, and do what you can for the team..." [via @BBCRMsport]
Josko Gvardiol on @Erling's new haircut: "To be fair, it's not that bad! I like it because I used to have that. And especially because he's been talking about it for a long time. To be fair, I didn't expect it, but it's not that bad, and it can grow again..." [via @BBCRMsport]
Josko Gvardiol: "There's still strength in this squad, especially we could see today: @MarcGuehi13 as a holding midfielder. We know how difficult it is for defenders to step into that position, he did a really, really good job! All I can say is well done, Marc!
"That's our mentality, not just him but everyone. Everyone is willing to accept responsibility and be here when we need them the most. He's an example, but we stick together and keep going all together..." [via @BBCRMsport]
Josko Gvardiol: "Everyone is pushing even harder, especially because of the changes we've had and it won't be easy. I think we need to support eachother and support the manager and his team. I think we did a great job today, there's always room for improvement so I think we can do it even better.
"But lets leave that for tomorrow, we can maybe enjoy and celebrate, and prepare well because there is Crystal Palace away in five days. We know how difficult it is to play there, so we need to be ready..." [via @BBCRMsport]
Josko Gvardiol: "Before Rayan [Cherki] passed, I took steps backwards to make sure I'm onside. In that moment, I just hoped I was on, which I was on. More than happy to score, and especially to win three points in the first game of the season. We know it's a marathon, so game by game and obviously every game is important - happy for the win today..." [via @BBCRMsport]
