A good first half performance was spoiled by conceding three in the second half and it was a strong lesson as to why you need to take your chances when they come your way as we paid the price for missing those that we had in the first half.<\/p>\n
It was clear in the second half that heads dropped and the sloppy nature of all three goals really suggest that the whole team is low on confidence and that is something that needs addressing somehow.<\/p>\n
Britton has been very much a bit part player for the past twelve months or so but it is his kind of presence that we are missing in midfield and he could well be nearing a recall to the starting line up.<\/p>\n
He had a perfect view of yesterday’s game until being introduced into the action late on with the match already lost \u00e2\u20ac\u0153There are plenty of positives to take particularly from the first half. I thought we played really well and better than of late, but we came off with a 3-0 defeat and it didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel like that” said Britton.<\/p>\n
He added: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It was disappointing to concede goals in the manner that we did.
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Since the manager has come in, we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been hard to beat and we haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t conceded goals like that.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s difficult when you give a team of Arsenal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s quality goals like that.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153They are a team in very good form so we knew it was going to be tough, but we showed our quality in the first half.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We needed to keep that up in the second half but the two soft goals really hurt us, and they saw the game out from then on.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
