"It was a frustrating performance because we had no pace in our game. Overall it was a flat performance with a lack of energy level, a lack of sharpness. It was quite a big concern to see what we have seen today."
"It is difficult to identify one special thing. I felt we started okay and after our game became flat. Very few players looked to have the resources to put the pace up in the game.
"Part of it is down to the fact that Blackburn defended well but I don't put the majority of reasons down to that. I feel it is more down to our poor offensive performance today."
"We have to focus on our performance, not on Manchester United. Before we speak about the title I believe we have to come back to a good level of performance."
"I fear nothing, I am concerned about our performance today. I just say that before we speak about the title we have to focus on our performance level, because it was not good enough today.
"That is our first concern. After that we can see, but our performance was flat, so we have to come back to a better level."
