Michael Owen: "He never said much in the dressing room, but obviously there were plenty of people that made mistakes last night, not least me.

"I missed two chances, and I was disappointed with that as normally I'd score.

"Unfortunately, a goalkeeper is always highlighted if he makes one mistake, whereas I can miss two chances and not as much gets said about me.

"I looked at myself - everyone looks at themselves - after the game and the only good factor from my point of view is I got an hour.

"With me it will take two or three games to get started and really sharp, and I hope that's the case when I go back to my club, do really well and then we've got the big qualifiers. 

"It was really disappointing. It was pride more than anything, and obviously getting beat at our home ground.

"We've got two more important games in a couple of weeks and everyone needs to sharpen up over the next couple of weeks and perform better next time.

"If we failed against the next two teams, then we'd be really disappointed, but I don't think that's coming into our minds. I think we'll beat them."
