Marcelo Bielsa shared his views with the media after his side were defeated at home to West Ham United.
The Whites are without a win this season in the league following the second half turnaround from the Hammers, despite taking an early lead through Raphinha.
“It’s a game where we did a lot to deserve not to lose,” Bielsa explained.
“We came up against an opponent who is going through a great moment, at the moment.
“The impression I have is that in the second half it was difficult to get the ball to the opposing half. We defend a lot and too close to our own box.
“In situations like that sometimes it is difficult to avoid the opponent from scoring.
“When a team goes through a good period of form, it’s easier for them to get what they are looking for.
“When a team like ours goes through a lower moment, what they deserve is difficult for them to obtain it.
“We didn’t play for the draw. There were moments in the game where they overcame us.
“That wasn’t a consequence of our intentions, it was a product of the dispute that was on play.”
