The Swansea City manager told the official website after the game "It's probably the most disappointed I've been since coming here,<\/p>\n
"We didn't do enough tonight and we should have seen the game out. <\/p>\n
"The two points I made at half-time was that we needed to get the second goal and get tighter around the box. We did the opposite.<\/p>\n
"We defended very poorly for the goal, which is a surprise because we've been strong all season. You can't afford to give the league's top scorer any room because, as he proved, he'll stick the chance away.<\/p>\n
"We just switched off, but full credit to Watford they stuck to their task and when there is only one goal in it you've always got a chance.''<\/p>\n
With Norwich winning at Leicester to move joint second with the Swans, and Leeds picking up three points at Preston, it's still too tight at the top to call.<\/p>\n
"Hopefully it's a good lesson to learn with 10 games to go,'' added Brendan. "We are not that good that we can't afford to work hard and do the nuts and bolts.<\/p>\n
"We've got to enjoy where we are, but we've got to do the ugly bits as well. We didn't do that tonight and I haven't had to say that before this season.<\/p>\n
"With the results going the way they did again tonight, it may look like a point gained and a point closer to where we want to be. But it doesn't feel like that. It feels like we've dropped five points over the last two games.<\/p>\n
"Without sounding arrogant, we expect to win our home games. We know how to win games, but we need to find that killer instinct again to kill off games.<\/p>\n
"We've put ourselves in a fantastic position, but we've got to find the other ingredients and attributes to kick on.<\/p>\n
"It's going to go right to the wire, so we've got to go again at Derby on Saturday.''<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
