Nuno on the game
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We started well, on the front foot, we had chances, but then everything became very hard."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "The moment that West Brom broke us with their first chance, they scored. We conceded too easily."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "It’s very concerning, and the message is totally the other way around. The idea is to start the game on the front foot."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We have to improve in defence so we can try to score first."
Second half and recent results
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We were able to bounce back in the first half, but the beginning of the second half was the total opposite of what we expected."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We wanted to go for the game, and they scored with the first real situation in the half, so it was tough."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "The last two results have been very costly for us."
Nuno on the response
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We have a clear objective, and every result we don’t achieve what we want, we get further from that objective, which is very difficult."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "We need to improve our game and win matches, so we can change our momentum."
Nuno Espirito Santo said: "The only solution is results. We need to stick together, help each other and improve our game."
