What was your take on that from the directors box?
It was really tough to be there. To be honest, I don't want to be anymore there. So frustrating to be there and to try and connect with the coaching staff. It was really tough because you cannot show your emotion. Really frustrated and really disappointed, also with the performance. We were never connected with the game. Even when we scored, it was a moment to go but the team was never with the right energy to go and compete.
More angry or disappointed?
Both disappointed and angry. It's normal to blame yourself when this type of performance happens and we need to blame ourselves.
Why are Chelsea conceding so many goals?
No-one is talking after Manchester City after we conceded four, like Manchester City. The amount we concede is because we need to be more focused and concentrated. Today we concede so easily the goals. That's why we are disappointed with that. It's a thing that we always talk and try to be solid in our defensive line. It's not only about the defensive line. It's about our performance as group, like a team. Disappointed with our performance, it was our worst game of the season. It's about to blame ourselves.
