S.Taylor "We didn't Deserve To Win" Against Cardiff

Newcastle United defender Steven Taylor has described yesterday's defeat as devestating as the club were knocked out of the FA Cup in the third round. Taylor who has only recently come back into the team agreed with the fans that the team just weren't good enough against Cardiff.

He said;

"It's a killer blow. We understand. Listen, this competition is massive and people don't realise how big this competition is.

Even from a young lad, come the FA Cup, this is what you want to be in and to try to win.

But the last three years just haven't been good enough. We just need more belief.

This is the third year on the trot for us - that's got to hurt.

We didn't deserve to win. Maybe for 20 minutes in the first half, we played well and possibly 10 in the second half when we had a good little stint but they just wanted it that bit more.

We didn't deal with the set-plays and, at the end of the day, that has cost us the game. I am just devastated we lost."
