00:00you
00:30you
01:00you
01:04takes it 15 yards ahead of where it should have been so my take to
01:08referees is don't give yourself a problem and you're gonna have a problem
01:10because I am gonna say that has been taken 10-15 yards away from where the
01:14throwing's gone out by the way it's our throw as well but I understand they make
01:16mistakes same thing happened in the second half here when there was a free
01:20kick close to the touchline the one way John got booked and of course we've got
01:23to probably tidy up our behavior in the touchlines but you know we we see what
01:28we're like we I don't feel like we're fans we're players we're everything in
01:33between and you know we we feel it yeah we've got to be better but it's just
01:38incredibly frustrating because we need a lot more than that.
01:41Nicola Schmidt's save, what can you wear as a couple in there but particularly the one from Liam Cullen?
01:44Yeah I mean absolutely superb it looks superb in real time I haven't
01:48seen I haven't seen it back I'm sure it's gonna look even better then but we
01:51yeah we need that we're gonna need players to step up and and I think Nick
01:55has come over and he's been excellent it's been really really good and I'm
01:58feeling for him that he's made that save.
02:00After all the drama you could so easily have just
02:02nicked it right at the end there as well yeah I think if we had it probably
02:05wouldn't have been deserved but yeah we we did we did nearly nick it doing doing
02:09playing sensible football and you know we hit Connor from from being a bit more
02:14direct he won his own second ball and we nearly threw and you know on
02:19another day that goes in did we deserve it probably not but I think on effort
02:23and endeavour and and just the sheer frustration of what it's been like this
02:27week it was I think it was really difficult to come here and sustain what
02:30we tried to do we look fresh in the first half the second half we look like
02:33a side that haven't played for the three weeks and those are a few things that we
02:37hopefully are going to get over now going into the home games next week.
02:40How's Marco Mane?
02:41It took a it took a knock to his hip so I don't know he just didn't look I was
02:45I either sort of signalled over said you okay he said he was fine and I saw him
02:49run for about another 10 yards I knew he wasn't so we had the sub ready and yeah
02:53I thought it was obviously a shame for him I don't know I think he's not too
02:57bad but he's taken a whack to the hip.
02:58Any news with Cassini Yengias yet?
03:00No nothing yet he's in with a specialist on on Friday I haven't spoken to Steve
03:07about it there may be an update but we'll speak after and I'll give you a
03:10full update on Wednesday.
03:11Do you feel like you're learning lessons when you come to
03:14places like in the Championship and improving as a side and how to deal with
03:17you know you know they're gonna have time to protect you know you're gonna
03:19have moments of dominance do you feel your team is learning and dealing with them?
03:23Yeah I think that we've dealt with a really really good Swansea side for 46
03:30of the 47 minutes 47-48 minutes in the first half I'm really really
03:35frustrated with the way that we conceded the goal not the cross and not the fact
03:38that it's gone in the fact that we just overplayed after going 2-0 up
03:40one minute to go to a half time I couldn't fathom what we were thinking and we get
03:45picked off and Swansea score the only time we did it in half so these are the
03:49lessons we've got to learn we've got a lot a bit better we want to play a bit
03:53more football if we possibly can but this side's press really well with
03:56excellent athletes so we have to be wary of that we have to make sure we play to
03:59our strengths and when we did we looked a really good side when we didn't we
04:03looked a bit poor and yeah we've we've got to try and just have a lot more of
04:07the form.
