Image source, Rex FeaturesHull City boss Ruben Selles spoke to BBC Radio Humberside following his side's 2-1 defeat by Queens Park Rangers.
"I think the first goal put us on the back foot and the second happened so quickly, we didn't have time to react.
"It is important we analyse the situations and see what went wrong. We have to continue with the players we have and introduce the new players, some of whom are coming from not having competitive games for eight to 10 weeks."
Selles believes his team suffered a lapse in concentration in the build-up to Rangers' second goal.
"It can not happen. Cody [Drameh] can get beat in that situation but we were not ready for that quick throw-in.
"I think that it was more about the level of attention for the team - those situations are the kind of situations we are trying to remove from our game."
Image source, Getty ImagesHull City boss Ruben Selles has been speaking to BBC Radio Humberside about what he feels new signing striker Kyle Joseph can bring to the squad.
"I think Kyle is an excellent player," Selles said.
"He can run deep with us, he can be a better player - a player that is very difficult to play against.
"He can play as a striker, he can play in the two winger positions so, for us, we are happy to have him."
Joseph is the Tigers' fourth signing in January, joining midfielders Matt Crooks, Nordin Amrabat and forward Joe Gelhardt.
All three featured as substitutes in Hull's away victory over Millwall at the weekend - though the trip to London did come with a casualty.
Captain Lewie Coyle has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against QPR after suffering lacerations to his ankle.
However, the right-back is not expected to be out long-term and could possibly feature in the trip to Sheffield United on Friday.
You can listen to Selles' full pre-match interview on BBC Sounds.

Image source, Getty ImagesVictory against Millwall means Ruben Seles has guided his side out of the Championship relegation zone
Hull City boss Ruben Selles spoke to BBC Radio Humberside following his side's 1-0 win away against Millwall.
He said: "It's difficult always to come here and try to perform. We had some phases that we controlled the game and created situations when we should go in front.
"There were some situations where we didn't find the pass and ended up being under pressure, but overall I think it was a good performance.
"My team showed they can play in defensive scenarios and still be powerful, aggressive and win football matches.
"With the goal, Regan is a fantastic ball carrier, he attacked the space and we were in the situation where we had a runner at the first post, runner at the back post, another runner arriving, and every ball there either we'll score or it's very difficult to defend, and it went in."
Hull City are considering a move for Blackpool striker Kyle Joseph, who is the Tangerines' top scorer so far this season with seven goals. (Football League World, external)

MIllwall welcome Hull City to The Den on Saturday (15:00 GMT) seeking a first win in five, and a first under Alex Neil in the Championship.
The Lions are 14th and now 11 points adrift of the play-off places, with a seven-point gap to the third-bottom Tigers in the final relegation place.

Millwall have won just one of their past 11 league games (D5 L5), though that did come at home to Blackburn in December; in fact, only Plymouth (100%) have seen a greater proportion of their total Championship wins this season come at home than the Lions (86% - 6/7).
Hull City have picked up eight points from their seven league games under manager Rubén Sellés (W2 D2 L3), more than across their 12 Championship matches prior (6 - W1 D3 L8).
