Sam Dalling was at the Amex this lunchtime, and his report has landed. Here it is! Thanks for reading this MBM.

Graham Potter’s turn to talk to BT Sport. “We started really well, the better team. The goal took the wind out of our sails, which is not so surprising given the run we’re on, and that Liverpool are Liverpool. But credit to the boys, they stuck in there, and we had a couple of moments that didn’t go our way. The penalty is what it is. Looking at Yves’ reaction, it was a penalty. I thought we finished the game really strong and created some chances. I think [the Sanchez-Diaz incident] was an accidental one. The quality of pass and the quality of the run was just too good for him. We’re certainly not a happy camp, nobody wants to lose football matches, but we’ve got 33 points and we want to finish the season as strongly as we can. We need to focus on the next game, get some points, and get some wins. We have to do better, but perspective means we’re not too far away from a good points tally, but we need to make that happen, and the only way to do that is to focus on the next game.”
