"I spoke to (Sheff Utd Assistant Manager) Brian Kidd afterwards and he said they couldn't get hold of the ball for the opening 25 minutes in the second-half. "Their 'keeper was certainly busier than ours and it's a good chance that Dele Adebola misses in the first-half.
"If he slides it across Doyler can tap it in so maybe he didn't make the right decision. I think our final selection of passes at times hasn't been what it should be.
"But it certainly wasn't a negative defeat. I thought we passed the ball well but if we are struggling to score we have to able to keep clean-sheets and we are not doing that at the moment. "We've hit a bit of a sticky patch so we have got to get back on track.
