The boss gives his thoughts ahead of Saturday's clash with Reading.
ON RECENT RESULTS
"We've been on the end of two narrow defeats, against two difficult teams. We created chances within both games. And there were certain decisions that happened in each game.
"So it's about sifting through all that and assessing what went well, and where we can be better.
"But again, it's about keeping everything in perspective."
WHERE CAN IMPROVEMENTS BE MADE?
"We obviously need to capitalise on our opportunities. And how can we create even more of them, because we have the players who can take advantage of that.
"And then we've obviously been punished in both of those games, against the run of play, cheap goals. There's no specific pattern, but can we keep our focus?
"In those moments in games where we are under pressure, we are feeling a little anxious. So it's about keeping that focus."
ON HIS TEAM'S APPROACH
"We're the third or fourth top goalscorers, we're one of the league's leaders in terms of creating chances and I want my team playing with freedom.
"But I want us to be strong at the back, keep the ball out of the net. It's about balance. But I want to build a team that excites the fans, gets them off their feet.
"I accept we might not be doing that right now, but we are working hard to improve all the time and I hope we can show that on Saturday and send the fans home happy."
ON READING
"They've probably gone under the radar in terms of some of their better results because of the points deductions. Their manager has done a really good job and they're an exceptional young group.
"They have a lot of attacking talent, that's their biggest strength.
"So another tough proposition on Saturday but as you can imagine, we're very focused on ourselves and what we need to do."
