00:00It's tough to say without getting into trouble mate. I think reactions give it away in football.

00:04I think obviously you can't get it on with a few. Again, I've seen it, Freddie's reaction

00:12as you've just alluded to there mate. It's one of them that he said something about the

00:17green zone or something where it's apparently touched somewhere in his arm, which isn't

00:22but again we watched it back and you can clearly see it. Again, I don't want to get into too

00:28much trouble saying it. Was it a frustrating day as a midfielder or did it feel like any

00:32control really? Maybe first half a bit but they were pretty aggressive weren't they?

00:36I think the counter-attack mate, we've watched them all week. The manager's alluded to that.

00:40I think if you give the ball away cheaply they've got players, Sykes and Wells, people

00:46like that who are quick and when they get on the counter-attack they do cause damage

00:50and I think again everyone's going to be looking at the defence today but again it's all of

00:54us giving the ball away cheaply and them counter-attacking us and to be fair they've done a counter-attack.

01:00First goal obviously is what it is at this moment in time. Third goal again you're pushing

01:05for the goal but again it's a really soft goal for us to concede and it's not us. But

01:10again there's a game on Wednesday night and we have to sort of turn around now and mess

01:14up the cup and look after that. At 1-1 did you feel, yeah we can go, it's certainly going

01:17to end it off. 100% yeah, 100%. You always feel like, especially when you get that momentum

01:22in a game and it's a real sucker punch. We obviously give it away and they go and run

01:27down the other end and it's a goal. So really disappointed and as I alluded to before it's

01:32not one that we are. We're normally solid and resolute but the past two games we haven't been.

01:37Are you purposely kicking towards this end in the first half?

01:41Yeah we started on a good run. I can't remember who it was who flipped us around.

01:46So someone else did it first?

01:47I think it was Watford flipped us and we won. I think we've been 6, 7 and 8 in Barrett

01:52again today. So yeah we've obviously stuck to that and it's worked. Obviously today's

01:57disappointing but there's a game on Wednesday night and we have to learn from that. We'll

02:02debrief it on Monday and we have to look forward.
