Southampton boss Ronald Koeman has slammed his side's display in their 1-0 defeat to Stoke City at St Mary's Stadium.
The Saints' six-match unbeaten run in the Premier League was ended by Mark Hughes's men as Bojan Krkic scored the only goal of the game in the 10th minute to hand his side the three points.
Koeman has conceded that his side were outplayed across the park throughout the 90 minutes in their clash.
He told BBC Sport: "It was not good enough in the first half. In the second half, we played better, it was a good reaction, but I have to recognise that best chances in the game fell to Stoke.
"We created some good chances but they were dangerous on the counter-attack.
"They had a very good organisation in defence and you have to have very good quality on the last pass, the last cross, and we didn't bring that."
Southampton dropped to eighth in the Premier League as a result of their defeat.
