Queen's Park Rangers boss Julien Stephan says his side will need to work better as a group after the Loftus Road club shipped four goals at home to Ipswich on Saturday.
Speaking after the 4-1 defeat, Stephan told BBC Radio London: "It is a disappointing result but it was the one we deserved.
"It wasn't too bad for the first 60 minutes, I thought the first half was good and we reacted well to going a goal down.
"But the second goal came too quickly at the beginning of the second half and to concede so early in both halves against a very good team with good players is difficult, and then the third goal killed us mentally.
"I will be honest in the analysis of this game with the players, including what we did well as well as the big mistakes. After that it is just a question of learning.
"There are good examples to show the players as well, but we need to correct the negatives too because you cannot concede four at home. We need to be better collectively going forward.
"This is a good team, and a good group, and that shines through in difficult moments. We have the chance to react [against Southampton] on Wednesday."
