Shrewsbury Town manager Micky Mellon says his side gave away goals through individual errors in their 3-0 defeat last night.
The side have failed to score in their three league games this season, but Mellon said it was too early in the season to worry about that and said the players were creating chances.
Shrewsbury have played Milton Keynes, Coventry and Charlton this season, three teams Mellon manager believes will be finishing near the top of the table.
Quote MessageI've seen enough to say if we cut out individua errors, we can give ourselves a chance."

There are long delays on the M54 heading west towards Shrewsbury and queuing traffic stretches back past junction five for Telford now.
Vehicles are being taken on a 33-mile (53km) diversion past Randlay and Hodnet, rejoining the A49 at Battlefield, north of Shrewsbury.
Meanwhile, delays caused by an accident on the M54 between junction three for Albrighton and two for Wolverhampton have cleared up.
Severn Valley Railway has got planning permission for a multimillion-pound expansion at Bridgnorth.
The station building will be expanded, creating a café, a larger pub and improved toilet facilities.
The plans, which have been in the pipeline for more than three years, also include a 53-bed hostel for volunteers who work at the heritage railway.
A charity which supports former footballers had been in contact with Dalian Atkinson before his death.
Read MorePlans for the redevelopment of Copthorne Barracks in Shrewsbury are to go on show this afternoon.

Police are investigating after two vehicles were set on fire in Newport, external during the early hours of today.
The niece of former Aston Villa striker Dalian Atkinson had contacted a charity that helps ex-footballers - two months ago, because she was worried about him, it has emerged.
Mr Atkinson died after being Tasered outside his father's home in Trench, earlier this week.
Geoff Scott, the Chief Executive of charity Ex-Pro, said her call had been logged and put into their diary for a follow-up call.
He says it's important not to speculate too much on Mr Atkinson's state of mind - but to wait for the outcome of the investigation.
Quote MessageI think it will will come out ion the fullness of time. I would not be surprised if he was a stereotypical former player that's found it hard to adjust to life."

Shrewsbury Town Council says it made the decision to block a music festival in the Quarry park with "great reluctance", blaming a lack of information from the organisers.
Council leader Alan Mosley said that they'd done their best over the past two-and-a-half years to make it happen, but after receiving a report from officers, members of the recreation and leisure committee felt it wouldn't be in the interest of residents, the council or the event-goers themselves.
There has been no comment from the organisers today, other than to say they still hoped to resolve the problems and that more would be known by Wednesday.
Quote MessageOur focus has always been to ensure quality events which are safe for those who attend, that show good value for money and which leave those event goers feeling they've had a good time and to do this we require good event planning and unfortunately in this case we couldnt be assured those values could be achieved."
Councillor Alan Mosley, Shrewsbury Town Council
