"It was hard for us. We were ahead but when they had a man sent off it boosted them. City stepped up their game a couple of notches after the sending off. They looked like they had 12 men, not 10. They were unlucky not to get something, they had a few good chances," he said.
"Let's not forget that Peter Crouch was excellent, he hit the bar and had a some good chances of his own. He was terrific out there. He should have had three or four and only David James stopped him by pulling off some great saves.
"We just can't seem to get the second goal but at least we are making the chances. On another day they would all have gone in."
