Xabi Alonso on set-piece woes:
"Not just set-pieces, in defensive duels, in the build-up. We conceded the first goal and then we lost shape and conceded on a transition. To be able to understand the game and know what it takes to compete until the end. It's a process."

Xabi Alonso on bringing on Mahdi Nicoll-Jazuli:
"At 2-0, we brought Mahdi on. He has great energy, and we are short on options in the middle. Geo and Este have been training well. Before we were playing for 75 minutes with a team with experience."

Levi Colwill on set-piece problems:
"We have not been good enough, at times we have been bullied and we need to improve at that, but we trust in out set-piece coach, we are still adjusting to new things, but we do need to improve as a team."

Xabi Alonso:
"Iโm disappointed with the second half and with the result. This is not enough to compete in the Premier League. We were not able to maintain our level for the full 90 minutes and thatโs why we were punished today."

Xabi Alonso on Joao Pedro's absence:
"Itโs not about looking for excuses. We need to look at each other and know that we have to work and improve because there is still a long way to go. We have to check many things. We got into situations, but we were not precise enough with the final action. Thatโs why we didnโt score."
