Jose Enrique: “Everybody did their talking afterwards in the dressing room.
“I think it was important that this happened.
“To lose 6-1 now is bad, but it’s better to do it in a friendly game then when we go to West Brom.
“If it happens now and we lose, OK, it’s not great but we know that we can’t perform like that in the Championship or we will be punished.
“In the first half we didn’t play that bad but in the second I don’t know what happened.
“We’re now thinking about the next game – this was very bad for the players.
“I speak for myself.
“But for me it’s a 6-1 defeat and I don’t want to be part of that as a player.
“Yet in some ways it can be a good thing. It doesn’t sound like it now but if we can learn from this and get the mistakes out of our system, it can help.
“We have some very good players who will do well in the Championship.
“We know it won’t be easy as it’s a tough place to play your football, teams will press us very hard.”
“It was bad for the supporters, I’m sorry for them.
“But at the moment it’s bad for everybody. We were all very bad, I don’t understand it because I’ve never played when everybody made so many mistakes.
“I don’t believe that we are as bad as that result suggested.
“We have some players here who are looking forward to the challenge of getting promoted.
“It was a low point or my career, not the lowest, that was Aston Villa last season.
“This was only a friendly but everybody knows we have to do better.
“All we can do is stick with it. We have Leeds next and I hope that the fans come out and get behind us.
“We still need them at this club.”
