Quote:“The staff will look at it in terms of did we pick the right team? Is it the right shape? But we played three shapes there and didn't look good in any of them.

“We’ve got players that 10 days ago looked really good, set play delivery was good, first contacts were good, distances were good between the units…today we looked like we can't take a free kick, can't win a header, can't win a tackle.

“We’ve got three central midfielders in the middle of the pitch and their two are absolutely dominating them — should be the other way around.

“The game's gone. We didn't deserve to win the game, so I think this is bigger than the game today, it's bigger than the three points we didn't get. The frustration on my part is we haven't seen that in the week, so they’re Jekyll and Hyde in terms of the way they train and the quality and the energy and the intensity, and then mainly at home, whenever anything sort of half gone against us, we've sort of capitulated.

“It's a mentality. It has to be a mentality, because you don't become a good player and a bad player in 10 days. That's what we have to get some of at the football club.

“We need to earn the supporters’ trust. The supporters have watched two or three years of really, really poor performances, so it's hard to get them off their seats and we didn't do that today. It was a hard watch and there’s no getting away from that.”
