Coventry City manager Mark Robins was disappointed with his team’s display today and said that Swansea’s way of playing unsettled them on the pitch.<\/p>\n
Despite some strong second half pressure Robins’ team could only grab a single goal back, which came as a result of some over confident football being played at the back.<\/p>\n
He admitted that despite missing several “one on one’s” that Swansea’s “assured first touch” made the difference overall as the points stayed in Wales.<\/p>\n
The result means Swansea have taken maximum points from Coventry City this season and makes it six points from two games this week.<\/p>\n
Robins said: “We\u2019re disappointed, absolutely.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe would have liked to have played better of course we would. I don\u2019t know what it was, I think it was a mixture of their assured first touch, the way they move the ball and the way we didn\u2019t get up and leave a mark on them and the way we allowed them to play round us.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn terms if our movements they’re a side that try to pull you into positions you don\u2019t want to be and you have to get it right and because it happens quickly.<\/p>\n
\u201cSometimes you get it wrong, and we got it wrong twice and unfortunately for us the ball is in the back of the net twice.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe third one we end up playing a ball hitting against their men and it gets cut out and they break on us and stick it in and it kills the game<\/p>\n
\u201cOur \u2018keeper hasn\u2019t had a save to make and we\u2019ve had six opportunities on goal and three of them were one-on-ones and the other were clear cut chances.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
