Then, you have to draw the inner rim of the mouth of the funnel on that circle, then loft it (using the cut option) to the inner rim of the face of the cylinder you previously lofted from (which requires selecting the sketch by navigating to it in the sidebar).
The much easier way would be to create a midplane of the cylinder parallel to the Y-Z plane, use that to sketch the cross-section of the funnel, then revolve it around the cylinder's central axis.

I agree with making revolves. With a revolve, all you need is to sketch the cross-sectional profile of the part and then revolve it around the axis or centre line.
