Javi Gracia post Fulham (if anyone cares)
Today we tried to be more aggressive in our pressure. We started pressing high. Recover more balls in their half and in the beginning, in pressing with Rodrigo, Brenden and Weston, we controlled the build-up they had.
First half equal. Did not create much, but did not suffer. After conceding the first goal. Both goals from the same side. Two crosses. Had the balance into the box. Hard to manage after two defeats. The team kept going and after we scored the goal, it was late.
Build-up before Meslier's mistakes concerning?
I am worried about everything. Third defeat in a row and we have to improve. All the players, their level. We have to recover their best level because we have a very, very important game in three days.
Time to change midfield?
I prefer not to speak individually because they are all trying their best. Of course, players make mistakes, but I prefer to keep the strength of the team, squad and compete our best level.
Gnonto?
All the players can start on Tuesday. Not about their level when they play some minutes. I know all of their levels. Different options. Difficult decision.
See them struggling mentally in games?
When you are in this three defeats it's not easy to manage, but we are pros and we are coming from games where we got better performances and better results. Have to recover that level. Hard to accept the moment we are living.
Players still believe in themselves?
We have to. No time to have doubts about that. Have to believe because we did it. Four games ago, we did it. Did it really well.
Can you change enough before Tuesday?
Yes, different game in our stadium. Will be different and we believe we can get the victory of course.
Did you feel the fans stuck with the team?
I can feel the supporters are disappointed like all of us, but I am sure next game they will be there supporting the team. They support the team.
Robles - why not play him?
I consider all the options, but I have to decide what I think is the best. I know Joel very, very well from Spain, but I have to decide.
