Lee Johnson will wait until his players guarantee a play-off place, before he rests any of his squad and presses the reset button…
PASSIONATE
“It’s a difficult one for us to take today, after decent performances against Hull and a sterling first half here, we will have to study this one to make sure we don’t lose belief. We have to secure a place in the play-offs first, that’s not done. We have to get a result at least in the next two games. Then we have to press the reset button. We are so passionate about it. We have a squad big enough for every position apart from centre-half area (injuries). That’s how with our goalscoring problem we have to be vigilant as a team not just the back four.”
MISSED CHANCES
“The first thing about today was not putting them to the sword in terms of the chances we had. You have to give credit to Accrington but it's one we also have to study. I remember us having a chance when we were 2-0 up, a couple of flashes across the six-yard box. There was some good play in terms of our attacking play. Even second half we had two good chances to finish it off. But we then lost too many individual duals, technically and physically, but they threw caution to the wind with their direct play and running. That was our problem. Big individual errors as well.”
DIAMOND
"We had lovely momentum in our attacking play, there was nothing wrong with that. Even the third goal, Jack Diamond came on and showed his youthful exuberance and his quality in that moment [providing the assist for Power]. We looked pacy in the first half and counter-attacked well, we terrorised them down the left. But they got through it and then they got their goal, that changed the game, and then the next one [the own-goal] was a really poor goal to concede at any level."
