“We made a lot of mistakes, a lot of mistakes – and every time we did, we got punished. It quickly got to the stage where we were chasing the game against a side that were feeling confident, and in front of their own fans. We ended up chasing shadows in part, and it was just unacceptable.
There were individual mistakes, and collective mistakes as well. We didn’t do things the way we should have done to deal with their threats. They are a dangerous side, and showed that by scoring four goals – but there are things we should have done, and could have done, better and we didn’t. We just didn’t do it.
It was so disappointing. When it was 2-0, I was saying, ‘Just dig in, hold on, let’s be solid’ because I thought we could still turn it around, like we did at Wolves. But then the third went in and we had barely reached half an hour.
Every time they had a threat, it seemed to end up with a goal. It was hugely disappointing. We have got to stay level headed. Whether you win or you lose, you can’t get carried away. There are so many games. We’re disappointed we’ve lost, particularly when it’s so convincing in a derby, but there’s a game next week at home to Bolton.
Players will want to make amends, and hopefully by the time Fulham come to our place we will be in better shape and can get a result which will have our fans leaving the stadium with broad smiles on their faces.”
