"I thought the performance in the first-half was a bit sketchy - but it was a team that we made a fair few changes in so it always takes a bit of time to gel and players to get up to speed that probably haven’t played as many minutes as the other boys.

Also, we try not to dwell on what happened on Monday, but that was such a high for the players and it’s back to the reality of Whitley Park on a Friday night so that might have been a challenge.

"I actually thought after we spoke at half-time, tweaked a couple of little bits, I thought second-half we were good.”

I think it’s almost the other way around with the challenge. I guess as a player, the stadium games, St James, Bradford City, York City, even the National League Cup, they’re games that get you going a bit and you think can I prove myself at that level.

"The challenge is then making sure you do it professionally in a game like tonight, which they did. So I think it’s easier to get yourself up for games and making sure you maintain that professionalism when you come to play on a Friday night here.”

On Jayden Kouossu:

"That’s the challenge for Jayden because he’s got such a high ceiling. It was really good play between Kyle (Fitzgerald) and Johnny (Emerson), a really good cross and I suppose the biggest compliment I can give him is that it was headed like a seasoned pro.

"It was such power, great timing, brilliant celebration but he will be really pleased with that. He needs to recognise that can be part of his game as well and not be restricted by sitting behind the ball.

"It’ll take time, he’s only just 16 and a little bit and I think he would be that box-to-box midfielder he can be.”
