“But there were some of course, there were I'm not stupid, but we've lost and two goals have gone in from 35 meters. Congratulations to Brighton.

“I'm going to be frustrated. I'm not a robot. I'm a human being as well.

“I stand there myself, give everything to this, what I'm doing of course, I'm gonna be upset.

“I have to come here and speak calmly to you guys, but that's not how I'm feeling inside. If you want me to swear, I can swear.

“I can assure you, there are not many human beings that will be feeling more pain than me at the moment about a match.

“I understand the supporters’ frustration. I understand that, absolutely. And yes, it’s tough for us all.”;

Fullkrug launched a after last week's 1-1 draw with relegated Southampton.

The German apologised for being “s***” and accused his team-mates of lacking motivation and ability in a scathing assessment.

Fullkrug, who set up Jarrod Bowen's goal against the Saints, fumed: “It is a mindset problem. Very angry today.

“We don't try to playanymore. Sorry we were s*** and I'm very angry.

“We don't push up anymore, we just sink and that's not the way we want to play.

“It is not the first time where we score a goal and then the next goal kick we just shoot the ball long.”
