Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game against Manchester City at Etihad Stadium (kick-off 15:00 GMT).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• Chema Andres and Ferdi Kadioglu are expected to return to the matchday squad after missing the Carabao Cup game with respective hip injuries.

• Hurzeler confirmed a decision was made to rest Charalampos Kostoulas in the cup so he will be available on Saturday.

• Pascal Struijk remains sidelined but is training with the under-21s so should return to the senior squad next week.

• Hurzeler said "success is the only revenge" for the EFL Cup defeat at Manchester City and his players can "take confidence" from the way they performed over 90 minutes.

• He said "there will be different players on the pitch" for both teams but their "approach won't change." Hurzeler added: "We hope we finish this game with a better feeling than yesterday."

• On staying in Manchester and them being away from their families: "We try to be a family for the players and stick together in these moments. It's a big pro that we can connect with them and they're not alone in apartments. Not every player has family around so we can really build on connection with each other. Make the best out of it."

• He said the cup performance has given him options for his starting XI, but it will come down to who is "mentally and physically refreshed" to deal with the "intensity and demands" of Enzo Maresca's side.

• In response to whether a top four finish is the aim given their start to the season: "We should be a club that has high expectations. We have long-term goals, but speaking about them doesn't help us achieve them. What does, is doing the work. That's the only thing we can control."

• He said they "have to be fearless" week-in week-out to achieve the best results and this is what he instils in them in training.
