Plymouth Argyle defeat 'my responsibility' - Neil

Millwall head coach Alex Neil says his side's heavy 5-1 loss at Plymouth Argyle was down to his tactics.

The Lions were 2-0 down at half time and were 4-0 behind before Joe Bryan scored with 10 minutes to go.

But the hosts - who beat Liverpool on the FA Cup on Sunday - got a fifth soon after for their biggest win since September 2023.

"I'm bitterly disappointed, it couldn't have gone much worse for us if we're being honest," he told BBC Sport.

"I think the goals that we did concede, I didn't think Plymouth needed to do much to score them.

"It's just been a catalogue of errors throughout the match.

"We didn't penetrate, we struggled to get in behind them, and that was largely due to how I set us up, so from that perspective that's my responsibility.

"If you look back over the last decade in the Championship it's very rare that my teams would ever lose five goals, so from that perspective that is as bitterly disappointing for me as it is for the players.

"But whether we lose 1-0 or 5-1 - I know it's very different - but it's three points gone, we need to focus on what the next game looks like."
