Postecoglou felt that his team should not have lost the game, especially considering their dominant performance. He was particularly unhappy with the goals they conceded, which he described as "poor". He emphasized that his team's lack of focus and concentration led to the defeat, rather than any repeated mistakes.

Postecoglou also mentioned that his team selection was influenced by their upcoming Europa League semifinal against Bodo/Glimt. He explained that some players were given limited playing time to ensure they were healthy and ready for the crucial match. Despite missing the opportunity to maintain momentum, Postecoglou remains focused on Thursday's game.

Looking ahead to their upcoming match against Liverpool, Postecoglou believes his team can give them a good game if they maintain their performance level and focus. However, he acknowledged that there are still some areas that need improvement.
