""I thought in the first half we got some really good opportunities, especially in the transitions, and we were very sloppy," Eustace told reporters. "The game could have probably been out of sight really, with the amount of chances we had on the turnovers, just if our final pass or the finish was better. That would have been great. However, in the second half, I felt we controlled the game a lot more. When we did get those opportunities, we were finishing the actions and getting shots on target, so to win 3-0 is really pleasing.""
""We delivered really well at Watford, but we didn't reach the same levels today. We had a good start, we were in control, but the first goal was an easy loss of the ball and a transition. We kept going after the first goal, but at 2-0 the game was done.""
