Selles calls for Tigers to be more clinical

Tigers boss Ruben Selles after losing to Preston

Hull City manager Ruben Selles reacts to his side's 1-0 defeat against Preston North End at Deepdale:

"We created situations to score at least one goal and then in one moment we went 1-0 down and never recovered in terms of the score. I think we were competitive enough."

"We created situations, it's not just the situation with Regan (Slater) after five minutes. We created other situations and we need to make it count, but we created the situations so we just need to work on the details.

"You come away from difficult games in difficult competitions and first of all we need to be competitive and second of all we need to win football matches.

"Without being competitive we are not going to win games. We need to continue developing that competitiveness and in games like today, when we have the opportunities, we have to make it count and then we'll be in a better place.

"We have to try to not make excuses. We know we can do things. Now we have to do it to the very end."
