Norwich City boss Daniel Farke was left angry with his players after their 2-0 home defeat to Watford.
Gerard Deulofeu's goal after 76 seconds after some lax defending from Emiliano Buendia set Watford on their way and Andre Gray's close-range flick from a Deulofeu cross secured the points.
But they had to survive for 25 minutes with 10 men after Christian Kabasele was dismissed for his second yellow card.
Farke said, “We did not have the cutting edge today. We created so many situations, we had something like 20 shots. The cutting edge and also the right decision to play the final pass. These things you can accept but mistakes before the goals you cannot accept. We are playing in the best league in the world and you can't make these mistakes.
"We were pretty realistic before the season started and we were aware that we were favourite for position 20.
"We show more or less in every game we are competitive in this league, including in this game, but you have to play without easy mistakes, nursery mistakes. If we can play without these we definitely have chance to get points. Otherwise, we are struggling.
"It is of course not easy for the confidence level with seven games without a win. We had the chance today to get the result if we played a bit more solid."
He also stated: “My winger cut inside pretty close to our own goal and lost the ball. To concede a goal from this cheers the other guys up. If you start such an important game with such a nursery mistake it doesn't help the confidence or the mood.
"In football small details make the difference and this was a game defining moment."
