Boss Paul Hurst was unhappy with Shrewsbury바카라s performance at Bristol Rovers, even though the 0-0 draw means they have only lost one of their last six away games. (More Football News)
The visitors were indebted to several Marko Marosi saves for picking up a point from the Sky Bet League One contest at the Memorial Stadium, while Aiden O바카라Brien crashed a volley against the Rovers crossbar from 20 yards out.
Hurst says his side must play better if they are to get anything from their next fixture, at leaders Portsmouth.
바카라I wasn바카라t satisfied with the performance at all,바카라 he said. 바카라In the end neither team deserved to win. I thought it was two teams who could have done more for their club바카라s supporters.
바카라If I speak to Matt [Rovers boss, Taylor] I think we바카라ll both have a similar view: that the game was there to be won. But we didn바카라t do enough to grab that opportunity.
바카라That lack of quality today was quite frightening in all honesty. That바카라s a League One fixture but across most of the players, not all, that wasn바카라t League One, only by title, certainly not by quality.
바카라I don바카라t know if it바카라s a mindset or a mentality. It looks like we played yesterday, not Friday.
바카라We바카라ve looked after the players in terms of preparation but they바카라re either nowhere near fit enough or we go back to the mental side of the game. Digging deep and pushing yourself and getting through. I just want more from the group.바카라
In contrast, Taylor was happier with his side바카라s performance, with the Gas carving out several good opportunities to score, with the usually reliable Chris Martin suffering an off day.
Martin was unable to net when presented with two good opportunities in the first half, with just Marosi to beat, while substitute Jevani Brown hit the post in the final minutes of the match when he found time and space in the penalty area.
Taylor said: 바카라We just lacked a goal. With some of the chances we created, we know we weren바카라t at our fluent best.
바카라I was pleased with the intent, obviously we wanted more in terms of executing certain moments in the game.
바카라It was a step in the right direction. There are so many things we can do a lot better but in terms of what we created and how we limited the opposition team to just one shot on goal of any note바카라I was so much more pleased than I have been previously.
바카라They바카라ve always got a threat about them but we just needed to make more of our attacking opportunities.
바카라Chrissy [Martin] won바카라t be anxious about scoring because he바카라s scored so many goals and he바카라s not one to be affected,바카라 he added.
