Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson was upbeat following his side's 2-0 defeat against West Ham United, insisting that there was positives for them to draw from the match.
The Foxes coach admitted that his team failed to convert the chances that they created, but remains convinced that they are capable of turning their season around.
"The first goal we conceded was a big blow for us, the second was a quality finish from Stewart Downing and we continue to not be able to take our chances," BBC Sport quotes him as saying. "Their goalkeeper made three saves and our players are very disappointed, but our destiny is still in our own hands.
"I can look my players in their eyes and see they are very much up for the challenge. We have seen enough positive performances to suggest we will turn it around but we have to do it soon.
"It is not a case of shirking the responsibility or sticking my head in the sand. I'm very aware of our situation, but we are capable of changing it."
The result leaves Leicester rock bottom of the Premier League at Christmas, a position from which just four teams have survived.
