We Weren't Dangerous Enough, Says Miquel
- LCFC Women were beaten by West Ham United on Sunday afternoon
- Viviane Asseyi scored the only goal at Chigwell Construction Stadium
- The Foxes sit eighth in the Barclays Women's Super League
- Amandine Miquel shared her thoughts on the defeat
It was a tough weekend for Leicester in the capital when Viviane Asseyi's goal on the strike of half-time was enough to see the hosts earn their first win at Chigwell Construction Stadium.
Falling to consecutive defeats on the road, the Manager shared her post-match thoughts in Dagenham, admitting a lack of options when on the ball hindered their attacking abilities.
"I think the game started well and we were high pressing then when you take the goal just before half-time on that very long extra-time, it was hard but I think that we came back with good intentions in the second half," Miquel stated. "But we didn't manage to be dangerous enough to get that equaliser.
"In possession, we lacked movement and options to move the ball faster and when taking our chances, I don't think we shoot enough so we need to work on that still.
"We need to move more, and be free for the player that has the ball. The player on the ball needs to have two or three options, not only one so that we can combine easier. Maybe also in the technical precision, we can do better."
With three tough WSL fixtures now awaiting in the calendar, which starts with a home game against Manchester United on Sunday afternoon (3pm GMT kick-off), the former Stade de Reims Manager tried to focus on the positives to build on at Belvoir Drive.
"It could have been more (for West Ham in the first half)," Miquel admitted. "But we were pushing higher to try and recover the ball higher and be closer to their goal but then you expose a bit more space in behind your defence.
"The positive thing that we can take is that we only took one goal which is good because we are not taking a lot of goals now. What we need is to be much more dangerous offensively."
