He told teamtalk.com: "For large parts of the game at the weekend we performed well, but a few lapses in concentration cost us. I told my players that I thought it was a very even game and showed us we don't have a lot to fear this season."

Speaking on the clubs game against Bristol City, he said: "What's needed now is for our concentration levels to go up a notch from last season. That's how you beat top sides as we'll have to do more regularily."
