We made mistakes under pressure in the second half and that cost us the game.

We made too many mistakes and that counted against us. We have to have a look at ourselves. We made too many mistakes and had two yellow cards too many.

It has helped us a lot that we haven't travelled so much as in some previous years when we went to Dubai and London. We have been able to put a lot of hard work in at the gym.

It was very tough they've always played with a lot of heart. We've got a tough road trip ahead of us so it was important for us to start like this.

We always place so much emphasis on derbies, but we must look at our performances against overseas sides. That is more important.

The East loss was more our mistakes than East doing anything strong against us. I'll also say that is the best team I've seen (come out of East) in 20 years.
