"I thought some things were pleasing but from my point of view I thought the goals we lost were very poor. They were too easy.
"You can understand why we haven't won in 10.
"From middle to front we look a threat when we do things properly and quickly but defensively I think we play as individuals which we need to sort out quickly."
