From the North Stand I didn't see what was happening on the benches, but I have to say City as a team are a bunch of VERY sore losers. Ederson is an amazing keeper - his distribution is incredible....but his time-wasting, which started around the 50th minute, was pathetic. Bernardo Silva is an exceptionally talented player - he doesn't need to spend half his time whining. Foden is wonderful, but likewise seemed to spend an awful lot of time moaning. Gundogan and Rodri similarly seemed to complain about virtually everything. Perhaps when you win all the time you just can't quite accept that another team can beat you. They play some great football, but they don't seem a particularly likeable bunch!

Take a look at his interview on the club website, he explains how he likes to keep a calm demeanour. Having a masters in emotional intelligence probably tells him that showing emotion is a sign of weakness.

Fans are there to do the celebrating, not the Manager. Once they lose control of their emotions, they’re only a cup final goal away from a dancing Pardew; I’m still disgusted by that mess of a man getting his groove on like he was in a Newcastle club trying it on with his players’ WAGs.

Post of the season.

Thank you.

Brighton boss Graham Potter speaking to BBC Sport about his disagreement with Pep Guardiola: "He was disappointed with me. I was over emotional with our first goal celebration. It wasn't good from me. I apologise. It was just emotion."

Potter can't celebrate emotionally with the season we've had??? Come off it, Pep and team

Edison was time wasting from the 30th minute, then the ref booked Sanchez FFS!

Has anyone seen what actually happened? Potter apparently over-celebrated the 3rd? Was he celebrating in the direction of the City bench? If so what prompted him to?

Need answers still.

But I'm sure GP said the first?? Bizarre if it's bad form to celebrate after the season we've had

Reading into his apology, it seems like there must have been some gesture made, or something said, to the City bench for him to apologise like that, otherwise it was a bit strange to put out that statement. If it was just an over the top celebbration then it's weird for the City bench to get that annoyed at the full time whistle, or maybe they are just really bad losers.

All things considered, I think Pep and Potter have been a bit silly but also been quite grown up when the dust has settled and the emotion of the game has dissipated. Both conducted their post match interviews with maturity. Fair play to them both.

I reckon he lost it cos at the final whistle, Graham Potter advised him that if he was ever thinking of buying a property in Brighton, he was aware of a very nice 2 up, 3 down that was going
