“Today, the players did everything but take those chances and they left everything on the pitch for the supporters so I can’t ask any more of them in that respect.”

"You're going to see two very good teams, two very young teams, both going for the win. It should be a cracker."

“He [Brian] wants me to lead by example through who I am. I train hard every day and have done throughout my whole career. I put in 100% effort every day. I’m just being me.”

“It was disappointing and frustrating that we couldn’t quite get the win today. Unfortunately, when they’re sitting back and making it difficult, it’s harder to put away our chances. It’s frustrating, but we move on.”

"It is a very disappointing result. Against a team who defend so deep with so many numbers, it can be difficult."

“From today and tomorrow onwards we have a very specific focus on who we’re going to play against, their strengths and what they do well. We also look at what we particularly must do in situations of the game that can score us the goals to win it.”

“It’s an important part of the season, and when the games come thick and fast it’s important to be getting the results."

“I felt that we were in good control of the game, but the sending off changes a lot. We had a decision to make, and we attacked right to the end. We created good chances with ten men in the second half. The players’ efforts were incredible."

“Sometimes you play well and don’t get the result, but today we got both, which is great to see."

"I'm just so grateful for the players that they remain so focused on playing our way, the Cardiff City way, and not showing any signs of going away from that."

“We just have to remain focused on playing the best we can every single week, and look at going to Exeter on Saturday with a huge following and try everything possible to win."

"I got on well with a lot of them there, so there's probably a bit of bragging rights to see who wins. Of course, I want to win every game I play in, no matter who I'm playing, but it will be a fun game."

"The ambition of the dressing room is clear, I can feel it every single day. The players tried to do everything that I asked of them tonight."

“I’m very disappointed with the result. Every time we’ve had a setback this season, we’ve always bounced back and we’ll try and make it right on Tuesday."

“All eyes are on Saturday naturally against an opponent of the calibre that we’re facing. It’s going to be a great game and a great day for everyone."

"The crowd away the other day when we won was crazy. They took over the stadium really. Back here on Saturday now is going to be really special."

"Like I said in the press conference earlier in the week, it was about training leading up to it. We had a really good week in training, and we had a really good performance today, which is nice."

"The response from the players this week has been perfect in how we trained and prepared. It's no coincidence that this is how they performed on the Saturday."

"When we have games where we don't perform to the level that we hope to, we see that as a real opportunity to improve and make it better. It's a brilliant game for us, and one that we're really excited for."

"The main thing is how you bounce back, we’ve had a good week so far and we’re ready to go again this weekend."

"We'll aim to bounce back with a really good training week and look forward to next Saturday."

“We’ll try our best to play at the intensity that we know we need to be at to be competitive, play our best game and try to win.”

“It’s something that’s a real privilege to be a part of at the minute. I think we’re only going to get better. It’s a good place to be."

“We knew how dangerous Wimbledon were; we saw how many goals they scored at Barnsley. We knew that the game wouldn’t be straightforward and I’m very pleased to get the performance and the result in the end."
