Graham Potter insists he retains the full support of the club's owners despite being under pressure.

After overseeing just one win in eight games in the premier league, Potter has come under scrutiny.

Despite their sixth defeat of the season at the hands of Manchester City on Thursday evening, the 47-year-old came out fighting as he prepares to face the premier league champion again in the FA cup third

When you get cross, you get angry. Potter said that he had to speak in a respectful way even though some of the questions were dumb.

I have to answer them respectfully because I represent a fantastic football club and I have that job to do.

Potter said he didn't know if there has been too much negative talk about the club. I don't like reading newspapers. I don't like to use social media.

It would be weird for me to think that when we have good results, there won't be any criticism or negative feedback. I am not sitting here as a person who has all the answers and gets everything right.

There are some challenges that we have to contend with. Some of the margins in the premier league are hard. Problems in terms of injuries make it hard for us to be stable.

Isn't it?" People want to see the results. We need to prevail.

The chances of winning a trophy this season were damaged when they were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by City in November.

The beginning of the managerial reigns of Mikel Arteta at the club, as well as the beginning of the managerial reigns of other teams, was highlighted by Potter.

"Pep was there a year before they won anything," Potter said. It may be different for me, but I don't put a time scale on it.

I know the responsibility we have here, but also I know that I am capable and I have the full support of the owners, the players and the staff here.

When is the FA Cup fourth-round draw?

It will happen on Sunday before the Manchester City game.
