Swindon Town

MARK Cooper spoke to the media after the draw at Colchester.

On the result…
We conceded a goal and it becomes end-to-end. We need to be in control. The players must have run ridiculous amounts of kilometres tonight - we ran when we should have passed it, we didn’t mark properly and we weren’t great tonight. We dug in and got a point

On the performance…
We’re a better team when we control the game. When the game turns into a fight we’re not built to be good at that. We’ve got technical players so we need to be better at that and make sure we get that right. That’s a given (to be able to) scrap when you have to. For us to be successful, we have to make better decisions with the ball. It’s about making sure we get everyone in the right positions.

On team selection for the weekend…
We have a team on Sunday of players that need more minutes and some that played tonight.
