Reading FC manager Veljko Paunovic insisted that his team ‘played well in between all the goals’ despite their heavy loss to Queens Park Rangers.

The Royals went down to their fifth straight loss in the league, which leaves them a place above the relegation places.

“I think overall it was poor and the result was not good,” said Paunovic.

“Between all the goals, we played well.

“Individual mistakes cost us three goals in the first-half and that shook us up.

“We needed to change the approach.

‘Without you, there would be no club’: Defender sends farewell message to Reading FC fans

“When there is a performance from the whole team in attack, it helps us play on the front foot.

“Before we conceded the first goal we were the better side.

“But quickly after, we committed more mistakes and they punished us.

“We were vulnerable in defence and in the past we have seen that so we need to find the right balance.”

The Serbian boss refused to be drawn on commenting on potential disruptions behind the scenes at the club.

He continued: “It’s unacceptable to concede as many goals as we have this year.

“It could be (toxic) when things aren’t going well.

“We will be attacked and be vulnerable.

“I’m not going to raise things publicly but we are looking for solutions and looking to fix it.”

When questioned about his future at the club, Paunovic refused to comment on his position but admitted he understands the feeling of frustration from the fans.

“I understand those feelings and this is football, but I have no comment on that.

“I’m not concerned about my future.

“I’m a professional who looks to fix things and give my best here.

“That;s a cynical question and I won’t answer that.”
