Brentford Manager Uwe Rösler said he was proud of his team’s performance in their defeat against Leyton Orient but disappointed with the result.
The Bees were beaten 1-0 in East London in front of the Sky TV cameras.
Uwe said his team had enough chances to have won the game but needed to be more clinical in front of goal.
“When you have double figures of chances, you have to score goals,” said the Brentford Manager.
“Football is about scoring goals and when you create so much and are so dominant, like we were, you have to use one.
“The whole team did extremely well.
“I am proud to be the Manager of that team.
“They conducted themselves individually and collectively very well, they used their opportunity.
“The supporters can be proud to be associated with us and Brentford Football Club.
“We are disappointed not to get a result.
“The performance was top drawer, but we didn’t get the result.
“Football is also about match winners, you need match winners in both boxes, we have to work on that.
“We are making progress and getting more control.
“The next step is to be more clinical.”
Uwe said he would continue to work with his players to ensure they convert more of the opportunities they create.
The Brentford Manager said his team had created enough in recent games against Walsall, Colchester United and Crewe Alexandra, as well as against Orient, to have scored more than the eight they had.
But he pointed out his forwards had good goal scoring records.
“We are working with the players, but don’t forget, Clayton Donaldson is the leading goal scorer in the league and Farid El Alagui is just behind,” he said.
“Paul Hayes has a decent goal scoring record in the past too.
“We are not that bad.
“When you look at tonight, the Walsall game, the Colchester game, even the Crewe game we should score more goals with the chances we create.
“But we will work on it.”
Uwe explained he gave Harry Forrester a role high up on the left side with three central midfield players behind him and praised him for his performance.
The Brentford boss said he had started with Paul Hayes as he felt the striker was ready and wanted to ensure Farid El Alagui – who was getting used to the demands of English football – remained as close to 100 per cent as possible.
Uwe added his players needed to deal with the goal Ryan Brunt scored for Orient in the last 15 minutes.
“For their goal, the ball came in the area, we cleared it but then it came back and we didn’t clear it,” he said.
“On the edge of the box, the players should be marked.
“One wasn’t and he put the ball back, there was a bit of physical strength, some pushing and the ball drops for him and he scores.
“In this league this situation happens every week and we need to deal with it.
“We also have to reward ourselves and get three points when we play like this.”
