Managers

“It would be more beautiful that we didn’t recognize the late goal, but the guys then put the bodies on the line and I couldn’t be a proud way they were really busy program.
“They are a fantastic group. Yes, we can better manage the late stages of games, but we have a lot of young players who still learn a few great moments and are ready to fight for that when we have on the wall.
“We sometimes showed some real quality to move forward and created a lot of chances. Of course, I’ll look at the table and are thrilled with our fans, which makes our fans excite something.
“But that just meant something after 46 games and my job is that everyone focuses because only continuing hard at work can be hoped to achieve our goals.”

“It was a strange game in several ways and reactions in the locker room is much different since we got lost on Tuesday night.
“Then there were a lot of negativity. Tonight we know that we created more chances than you can expect from home and we lost because of very fine margins.
“It was more than fair that our fans criticized our performance against Sheffield on Wednesday, especially in the second half. They were fantastic and applauded players at the end tonight.
“We are probably where we should be in the league, which is the middle of the table. But there are really positive signs that go forward.
“It seems to be punished at this moment for each mistake. But the answer to the goal of the goals was great and I see a group of players who do all the best.
“Our goal came a little too late. A little earlier and I would really imagine my odds.”
